If I eat a high protein breakfast, that seems to be the key to getting my day started right. The only time I'm so hungry I could eat my arm is the week before my period. Then it's like all I can think about is food, food, food and often end up eating most of my days calories well before dinner time. Somehow I make it…

This. Last time I lost a significant amount of weight, I overestimated how much exercise would help me lose weight. I was working out 2 hours or more 6 days per week. It was practically a second job and I didn't really enjoy it. This time, I'm much more relaxed and not killing myself in the gym AND I insist on only doing…

I bought a Charge HR for a birthday 8 weeks ago and it has not left my wrist except to shower. I love this thing. It keeps me motivated.

I have a desk job too. I'm able to get up once every hour and go walk for few minutes - get water, restroom, etc..on my lunch break I eat lunch fairly quickly and spend the next 45 minutes walking. I bring my walking shoes. I work in a large hospital, so I can walk the long corridors and do an entire walk indoors. I can…

Once every morning and I enter it on the Happy Scale app so I can see trends. But I only log my weight into MFP on Sundays, which I consider my "official" weigh-in day.

Do you have children? I have two young daughters. One of them is 7 years old and she already comes home from school some days talking about calories and diets and not getting fat. She is too young to be worried about such things IMHO. We talk about what food is for treats only and food as fuel, but what she hears from her…

Break it up in to smaller increments. For me it's 10 lb. increments. It's much easier than focusing on the big number. I remind myself that all this time will pass whether or not I am eating at a deficit, so why not do it and a year from now reap the rewards. It's better than being in the same place.

Awesome! I have always had my own struggles with depression and anxiety/panic disorder. I found a wonderful therapist two years ago and my life is so dramatically improved, I can hardly believe it. (I made the personal decision not to pursue medication). Now that I'm losing weight and regularly exercising, it's even…

Don't think it matters. I eat breakfast because I've realized I feel better and less likely to snack later in the day. It's also my favorite meal and usually my biggest meal calorically.

I eat it at least 5 days per week. Losing steadily.

Thanks for the tip. It worked!

My fitbit won't sync today either. Not since last night. It's irritating.

I'm curious what other options you would recommned. I've been dealing with this issue too.
