When you work out open the exercise on your watch and start. I use it for the elliptical and treadmill. I choose the elliptical option, then end and choose indoor walking when I’m ready for that. MFP adds those calories burned right into my diary.

In college I tried the HCG diet where you put the drops underneath your tongues and eat only 500 calories of very restricted food. 🙄 clearly I knew nothing of actual nutrition and what my body needed. I lost weight fast but didn’t last long obviously. I’ve also tried MFP in the past (before HCG) but I still didn’t…

Many people have different reasons for this...it happened to me and it was my thyroid that didn't starting effecting me until college. Don't judge other people on their bodies or weight struggles. You don't walk In their shoes and unless you're still BFF and talk with them everyday and know their struggles, you shouldn't…

Don't waste your money. A lot of people I know tried it and ended up quitting on the containers. Too much to worry about and clean. Good food scales are on Amazon for $13, use plastic bags, regular zip lock containers, or whatever you like to portion that way. It's more accurate.

I always get huge headaches and migraines the first week of eating healthy. Even when I don't cut junk out 100%. Caffeine is huge so I make sure I drink it in the morning. What do you mean by junk? You may be more successful picking your biggest food temptations and doing that. I chose to specifically give up chicken…

I'm 255 and 5'5 and my goal set by Mfp to lose 2 pounds a week is 1660

Or make sure you workout on Saturdays so your calorie consumption isn't so bad

Maybe change your weigh in day to Wednesday so your body has time to kick out the extra water weight and bloat. If you truly are doing only one cheat meal a week I wouldn't worry about it. The rest of your meals sound great. So just try changing your weigh in day for a week and see if that helps with finding your true…

Thank you for explaining your whole situation. I honestly believe I lost my husband due to my weight. It took until he left until I cared enough to actually try. I'm definitely not saying for you to leave. In fact I suggest you have a true heart to heart with her and see a marriage counselor. That way if there are…

I ordered it just for the workout dvd. I have my food scale and Mfp for the nutrition portion. So far I like the DVDs but bavent done each workout yet due to being sick and my schedule.

I had to return weight scales a couple times until I finally found one that worked and is consistent!! Don't buy the cheapest but you obviously don't have to spend a million dollars either. When you choose one test it out a few times to make sure it's consistent by stepping on and off a few times for the first few days. If…

"Today is only day 2 sober but I need to" Focus on your sobriety first. Putting too much on your plate at once will just overwhelm you. Take it one step at a time. Try to make healthier choices but don't beat yourself up either. Good luck my love.

I just started the 21 day fix workout program yesterday!!

Thanks so much for all your comments and inputs!! I purchased and did my first workout tonight! I'm not sure if it's going to be the right fit for me. But I'm gonna stick through the 21 days and then decide!

Honestly I say try making the healthiest choices possible. Vegetables, fruit, lean meats. Use a food scale and learn proper measurements so that your calorie counts will be accurate. And once you understand calories and get the hang of eating better. You will know if you have the room on your diary to add a slice or two of…

Right. If he is 800 pounds. He is clearly bed bound. Taking away money and phone privaledges and serving the healthy meals would do the trick. When I have money. I'm instantly thinking about the food I could order. If not the hospital (which I know they can't take away certain rights) maybe the dad should do it at home and…

I agree

Thank you!!!

I'm also still a newbie at strength training. So I need to look up some of the stuff you mentioned lol

Thank you all! I will start implementing more of those exercises. I know that results are obviously not going to be immediate. It takes time and consistency. I'm in it for the long hall. I just wanted an average time frame whether it be a few months. Or as much as a year or so. Also. I don't find that song offensive at…

My PF has squat racks and bench presses as well. I think it depends on where you go since I've gone to others that have different machines than the one I'm at now. Overall I love planet fitness. I move around a lot and my membership is good everywhere (black card) and who doesn't love a massage chair or hydro massuage bed…

I took that in college. So many times I had to change my underwear. Farts usually turned into sharts. Just saying.

I've had mine since February and called Monday to get it replaced (my dog chewed the wrist band) and they replaced it overnight shipping. You have a one year warrantee with Fitbit.

Be careful about the calories Fitbit gives you. Today was the first day I wore my new one to work and by the end of my work day it claimed I exercised and burned 300 calories when in fact it's my normal day to day job. So if I ate all those calories back then I would end up gaining in the end. However I went to the gym and…

Maybe it's because you can finally see the end in sight where you can work on just maintaining? Keep going!

Keep salad stuff in your fridge as well as fruit and frozen (or if you like to eat them raw veggies). Eat your protein in the caf and make sure you watch your portions!

Awesome job so far!! Great motivation!

Build up and tone those areas. While you can't "spot reduce" you can replace the fat with muscle and make it less flabby =]
