Can I lift after SIBO test prep?
I had to do a diet prep and fast for 13 hrs for the SIBO breath test. The diet yesterday included only rice, shrimp, eggs, and canned white potatoes. Then I drank the 75g glucose drink this morning.😖 I ate normal today but still feel a tiny "off". Do you think it's safe to workout if I feel up to it?

Will my calories decrease over time if I start at 1,210?
Hi! I’m wondering how far MyFitnessPal will set the calorie goal. I know that they offer to change the goal for every 10 lbs lost, but is there a boundary where they can’t cross 1,200, or something? I’m only concerned since they’re starting me at 1,210. I don’t want to plateau. Thank you!
Any suggestions?
I have been at this for 5-7 months and now weight more than when I began. I eat well, move nearly everyday and drink tons of water. I am told I don’t eat during the day and too much after 7pm, so I have altered that as much as I am able, but I get so depressed and lonely at night it’s hard not to have a snack. Every single…
