How do you stay within your calorie goal while meeting your daily nutrient goal?
Hello everyone, I got into the weightloss diet with my mother. Our goal is to stay within 1200 calories. I don't really need it, but I decided to do it for my mom. However, I'm having a hard time meeting my nutrient goal. I seem to always go over my carbs, sometimes fiber, fat, and on occasion sugar. It's usually always…

WW POINTS not accurate
Has anyone else noticed that wwifnt watchers does not work because it does not compute accurately actual calories ? It’s more of a maintenance plan than weight loss? My fitness pal is so much better?

Weight + daily calories charts. How to?
I've got a pretty extensive database of my weight, daily calorie intake, macronutrients and so on. The thing is, MFP doesn't show these elements in relation to each other over time. I'd like to be able to see what my calorie intake over, say, a month looked like in terms of weight loss. I'm looking for information from a…

Almost two weeks in
I've been on my weight loss journey since September 16th, starting at 453.4 lbs, and I'm down to 443.6 lbs as of today.

Is this caloric deficit good?
Hi. I started my weight loss journey three days ago weighing in at 453. I'm currently 451. I weighed 238 lbs roughly 5 years ago and life threw me a huge curve ball and smacked me in the face, ended up falling into a bad depression and ate my life way. Long story short, I'm tired of feeling like this and having back and…

Calorie confusion!
I’m trying to log this Pret muesli pot for breakfast, but the app gives *such* different calorie counts for the same thing and I’m paralyzed about which to choose. I know dieters tend to underestimate rather than overestimate calorie counts so I don’t want to fall into that trap. How do people cope with these discrepancies…

how do I and what happens if I reset my daily calories because 1200 seems to be too high for me.
I set my daily calorie count to 1200 but I'm having a hard time hitting this on a daily basis. I want to reset it to 1000/daily but 1) i don't know how to, and 2) does this change the numbers for the days I've completed so far? I started on Sept 1st and have lost 6lbs so far. Thanks for any info/advice! Rose

I wanna give up. I love eating, I don't like walking
Ugh, and the numbers game with my calories and macros is annoying. I'll admit in my previous routine sometimes I ate badly because I am a foodie. However in this new phase of losing weight (again) my eating is very healthy. I have minimal adjustments I have to make with regards to getting rid of unhealthy snacks or candy.…

I do Orange Theory every other day burning about 600 calories per session (according to their program). 1st question: Is the 1700 caloric intake a day already a calorie deficiency or just what I need to sustain. 2nd question: Why do I get a new set of calories…
