Little update- did the inBody test this am so see what’s up (it’s free at my gym and the only thing that helps me figure out what’s happening because it compares my previous results). Anyway- muscle mass was over 102% on each segment, fat was up by 4 lbs. From now on I will focus on no resistance cardio. I also reduced my…

Thank you all for input. A few replies/ clarifications: 1. Salt- I don’t like the taste of salt so I don’t add it to any food, assuming there’s so much sodium in everything that I’m meeting my goals. 2. Food log- I actually completed quite a few days, I just usually fall under the goal. But I agree, I have to complete at…

I know it's been a while, but I'm wondering how it's going. I'm increasing calories and gaining weight like crazy - how did your wife do after bumping up?

Thanks - I asked my doctor to do my bloodwork next week. About 2 years ago I had a brief stint with hypothyroidism but it's been fine since then. Should I take multivitamin for the potassium/magnesium?

I read this yesterday. Crazy :smile: https://www.womenshealthmag.com/weight-loss/weight-fluctuation-experiment/slide/2

I would not be surprised if that's what the fashion industry has prepared for us for next summer. I better quit blazing and hit the gym HARD! ;)

Thanks! I'm honestly a bit baffled. I always thought how cool it was that you can pretty much find community support for a healthy and fit lifestyle on MFP, but I guess not in every case... I'll just call it drunk binge eating in other posts, even though I never have more than 1-2 drinks.

Encouraging?? I'm literally trying to do the opposite and looking for people on the same boat... I'm still very unclear on how exactly am I breaking the rules.

Oops my bad, I actually saw a whole bunch of threads about weed on MFP, but the 'newest' one was 2016, so I didn't want to join an old thread. It is legal in MA with a prescription.

I'm with you - I am 5'3" and weigh 120-123. I am trying to get back to my favorite weight: 115 and it doesn't seem to be happening. I've tried 1200 cal and switched to 1300 (I snack a lot... all good stuff, but I'm a grazer). I exercise every day and although my body is getting quite muscular (I have ridiculous muscle…

Sounds awesome, but I just managed to do 2 days without the scale (was shooting for a week) so I know it's not going to happen. I hop on the scale every morning - it helps me figure out how to eat that day. Good luck!

I have a huge uncontrollable sweet tooth and have noticed that since taking GC I haven't had cravings. I still have a bag of Reeses and Take5s (my favorite) in my desk and have not touched them in a week. Very out of character for me. I've also lost weight, but I know I could have done that with just the changes I've made…

Mine is up, too.

That's awesome, CaptainBoing! And I'm sure the Penguins appreciate it.

considering how my weight fluctuates, I really wonder if I should bother updating my weight daily. Some days I know I will only get upset if I get on the scale, on some I feel all great and 'skinny' and end up weighing more than the day before. Ugh. Spring is around the corner and I'm so frustrated this isn't going so well.

thanks - I'm back on track today I think. I hope.

That's awesome! good job!

2 kg is around 5 lbs.

i gained. ugh. i'm at 121.8 today. Easter didn't help, for sure...

I try to go to the gym, I then do 45 mins cardio and about 15-20 mins freeweights. However, since I have 2 little kids, getting out of the house has been a challenge, and I started doing youtube exercise videos. My favorite are XHIT - I usually pick a cardio one to start with (about 20 mins) and add 3 or 4 other videos (10…

5 lbs. Let's do this!

It's hard. I sometimes ask myself if it's worth it. I have experience post- binge guilt so many times that I have an easy time visualizing it :) also I try to replace a binge with fruit tea, it takes longer to drink. Or I would take the unhealthy food I want to binge on and put small portions in a container- I still get to…

Hi Guys! I'm Joanna, from MA. I am 5'3" and quite petite, but after this nasty New England winter have put on some flab around my waist. I am going to a conference next Sunday (4/12) and am desperate to make my normal clothes fit me. I would love to go back to my favorite weight, 115 lbs, I am currently at 121. At this…

hi! I am looking for someone to keep me honest in my weight loss journey. I oscillate around 120 lbs, I have now creeped up a few pounds over, and want to go back to my most comfortable 115. This is the first time I am planning to log food as well, supposedly it helps. So far I have only been logging exercises. I am going…

What kind of *kitten* would laugh at you guys? You sound awesome and inspiring!
