    I stopped buying on Ebay. I got scammed big time and it messed up my credit card for months. I actually discovered that the seller was using multiple email ID's and told them. Still had to fight with them and pay pal to get all my money back.

    Now I am afraid to use Ebay and would rather deal with amazon or original websites. Might cost more but I learned a lesson the hard way.

    I just did a 3 nutriton assessment and found out that I am now averaging 1900 calories per day and burning over 2100. A month shows averat of 1701 consumed and over 2100 burned. I was at 1100 (Been ill) now got to work on getting back down to 1700. 1600 - 1700 consumed is my magic number.

    That's awful, I'm sorry you had to go through that. I don't use EBAY nearly as much as I used to, I too prefer Amazon. Their customer service is awesome, especially if you end up with a bum deal. I have had a Paypal account for 10 years now, they've been great too. The one time I had trouble with Ebay, paypal gave me a refund. Definitely make sure you have buyer's protection whenever you make purchases! Whats a 3 nutritional assessment? Sounds very interesting.

    You track your food and sync your armband for three days and this is what you get basically. I could not get the screen to post but here is some of the basic information.

    Your daily average 1912
    calories per day Assessment Results
    Based on the meals you logged, you consume an average of 1912 calories per day.

    At which meal do you eat the most calories? Breakfast



    Assessment Weight Calculator
    Use this helpful tool to learn how many calories you need to burn in order to maintain or lose weight*


    *NOTE: Clinical studies have shown that restricting intake is an effective way to lose weight. In order to achieve a daily deficit, you should consider consuming less instead of just increasing your daily burn.
    1912CONSUMED

    We do not encourage consuming less than 1000 calories per day.

    Many people underestimate the portion size and/or ingredients in their food. We suggest adding 10% to the average consume value to account for this common issue. 2412BURNED

    I want to maintain my weight I want to lose 0.5 lb per week I want to lose 1.0 lb per week I want to lose 1.5 lbs per week I want to lose 2.0 lbs per week
    Burning this many calories daily will create a 500 calorie deficit. This deficit equates to a weight loss of about 1 pounds per week.

    Set these numbers as my new targets
