When we lose weight, where does it go?
I was curious, so I looked it up, watched a fascinating Ted Talk about the mathematics of weight loss and learned this: 84% of fat is exhaled as CO2 (carbon dioxide) 16% of fat is excreted as H20 (water) Not sure if it's accurate, but it was really interesting, and definitely over my head!

Hello!
While I'm not necessarily new to myfitnesspal I am new to this side of it. I've been using it on and off for years, but have never really incorporated it into my everyday life. Now that my goal is to lose 55 pounds, I'm using it consistently and am loving it. I'm intermitting fasting, working out 5 days a week, and am…

More natural food, more weight loss?
I have observed one thing about "food type" and weight loss in my "regaining health" journey. The more natural the food (boiled, steamed, home cooked), the easier it is to lose weight. I lost pounds rapidly when I was eating this type of food. Then in the last couple of weeks, I switched to equally low calorie, but more…

Water weight and my calorie limit
Hi all! I’m 12 days in, and I’m currently test-driving MFP’s suggested calorie intake. I’m F(49), 5’8”, and had a SW of 181. My daily intake is 1340. It feels a little low, but I’m taking some advice I saw elsewhere on the forum and sticking to it for 4-6 weeks to see how it works. My question is this: when I do the math…

Water intake
Hi, I’m looking for some tips and inspiration. I am seriously struggling to drink enough water and probably enough liquid in general. On a typical day I usually have 1 sometimes 2 cups of tea and 2-3 diet cokes. I occasionally have a 500ml bottle of water but even when I do, I rarely finish it. This is so unlike me. Before…

Fluid intake tips and information
Rule of thumb, we all go wrong when it comes to intake of water 8 cups a day, let's not lie here. At the end of the day not everyone in the world can understand what it is to keep on top of this, so here is a bit of a recap in a screenshot as to what I have found. Tea and coffee can count as daily intake, it is just all…

But is it water??
Logging water intake is important to make sure you are getting the amount you need daily. I’ve logged this on and off for years and found I was much more successful logging, especially when my goal is 1 gallon per day. The question I’ve always had, but never really asked……if you put a pre-workout powder in a bottle of…

Water
I'm finding that I cannot drink 8 glasses of water a day. I get nauseous on just plain water. The same with plain water with fruit in it. Does flavored seltzer water count? I also drink low calorie flavored waters/water enhancers. Also, 1-2 cups of black caffeinated coffee. On the plus side, I have given up regular and…
