Starting to lose

So, I started Myfitnesspal about a month ago, and the week after I started, I gained 5 pounds! I was not very happy with that, so I kicked up my workouts. I've been doing some ON DEMAND workouts and when I'm not doing those, I'm at the gym. After a few weeks, I finally lose those 5 pounds and 1 more, so I'm in the negative (in a good weigh) and back to losing weight! Just had to tell me story. It's not as astounding as most people on here, but I'm proud of myself!

Thanks everyone for the support! I initially lost 16lbs this year, and then I gained the 5 lbs, so it's nice to start losing again. I lost the 15lbs from January-March this year, and have been on a plateau this whole time, so it's so good to start losing again. Keep up the good work everyone!0

I have been keeping track of what I eat and fitness and its really been working great for me. Its easy to stay within the limits of the calorie maximums. In fact, some days I get to eat a little extra something to get my calories up to where I should be. Last night I went to McDonalds and slurped a Strawberry Shake just to get up to the calories needed. My wife was all for that! Eat smart and treat yourself to something yummy once in a while. Just use your calories like money to spend. Budget right and make your life happy...Its not rocket science...
