    Question - can we/should we input the weight into the charts ourselves ? I just tried and could not for the life of me figure out how to enter today's weight ?

    SW 212 lbs (1st Feb)
    Week 1 - 211 lbs (Wednesday 8th Feb)
    Week 2 - 210 lbs (Wednesday 15th Feb) :ohwell:

    Week 3 - xxx lbs (Wednesday 22nd Feb)
    Week 4 - xxx lbs (Wednesday 29th Feb)
    Total lost - xx lbs (Thursday 1st March)

    This was a real hard. I'm also in a challenge to stay within my goal calories for 7 days in a row. I lost the first pounds when I didn't try so hard?????
    But I'll see how next week goes.:drinker:

    I really love MFP. It has worked well for me so far. At least I can't make excuses when I log everyday. The hardest part is putting in foods "not so good for me." But (sigh) it has to be done.:blushing:

    What Charts???? Do you mean this thread or is there something else?

    No, you can't input or change the weight in the charts, only Jackie can change and update them. You update on this thread and she updates the chart. Hope this helps.

    Yes, it could very well be water weight gain. Do you normally work out or did you just start the workout program? If you normally workout are these new exercises that have caused any soreness in muscles? Reason I'm asking is that I recently learned that the #1 reason people give up on exercise and trying to lose weight is that they may gain or not lose weight when they begin to exercise. They get on the scale and it can actually shows an increase in weight and they think, "What the heck, I've been busting my butt exercising like mad and monitoring what I eat and I've gained!" so they stop thinking it's hopeless or not worth it. What really has happened is the muscles that have not been challenged, during exercise become sore from the tiny tears that occur within them. These tiny tears heal and in the process the muscle becomes stronger. But when the tears are new they cause inflammation and this causes swelling and water retention in the tissue. This is what causes the weight gain, but it is temporary. However, if you have been working out regularly, but have pumped up the reps/time/amount you normally do it is very likely you are gaining more muscle mass and you are probably already aware of the fact that muscle weighs more then fat. So keep on exercising! You have a great determination and drive!
