Unsure exactly how much to eat to meet goals
Hello, if I have the data currently set to about 2800 calories a day with a goal of losing 0.5 calories a week, am I supposed to eat exactly to 2800? Or go below? How much below? I'm just realizing now that losing weight probably means going under calorie figures and I need help knowing how to adjust.

Beating sugar?
I was a 1-2 glass of wine per evening person for many years, until I finally dealt with the reality that that wasn't healthy. I am now down to 4-6 drinks per week, which is not perfect, but much better. Part of why I was drinking was to deal with stress. In order to cope with losing that crutch, I allowed myself to turn to…

Can’t believe how low calorie this was! Set me off right
I tried a mix of the baked oatmeal fad and this girl’s trick for losing 60kg. Her “trick” is to sneak in veggies and certain fruits to meals because they have low calorie high density (and of course, high nutrition). I modified hers a bit (she used zucchini but I didn’t have that on hand), I threw shredded carrots and…
