I have a similar issue but from a few days. I'm starting to think it isn't water for me though.

I've decided since no description was given overfat means this: lower than average ratio of muscle to fat based than average for height and weight and gender.

I'm sorry. It is so hard. I still have weight to lose. But I know I'm spending a little too much time on here. And thinking about stuff too much. It's just so annoying because you need to be half disordered to lose weight at all. By that I mean you have to think about it a lot and consistently. Ugh. It is so hard. I do…

good luck with that. It is so hard especially at first. I don't do that. But I know it works really well for some people

I would say don't give up sugar. Try to eat what you like in moderation or splurge infrequently, but have it when you crave it.

Yay! Great job.

Wow. Good job! I'm no where near that speed but well get there when we get there. You look great!

I don't have to pay for these. Confused.

Well if it was in the time you thought it would take to lose 55 that's not bad. Basically maintaining. Now start cutting.

Good for you. It takes as long as it takes.

Haha! I just didn't want to identify myself. And it was the first innocuous thing I found on my phone lol. I didn't want to look like a noob. On that account I'm realizing on the fitness side there are things I really don't know much about. Love this community.

Yeah that was me summarizing what had been posted so far...

Ooh that could be I tend to eat more on the weekends. I didn't even think of that. Glad to have a way to view that as a positive lol. :)

It is really confusing. I think you can gain some muscle on a diet. Especially if you haven't worked out much before.

Yeah. Zumba isn't in there either. It's a strange database. I call zumba moderate intensity general aerobics. Maybe try that?

I thought you were gonna say for those little red beetles. Those are so gross. I don't usually count spices. Too much work.

I disagree. I see toning as building muscle. Otherwise. I agree with your post, but to each his own.

So technically you should see the scale move at approximately the same rate based on your deficit. With or without exercise. You should notice results faster from toning. And I think it takes a while before you have enough muscle to get the extra calorie burn effect. But working out at the same time is recommended.

I agree with the above 3500 cals is a pound of fat, but no one is losing only fat. So it usually takes a lower deficit to lose 1 pound.

I have similar goals. Looking to learn se 10-20 more before I start trying in about a year

Make sure to start exercising right away. I'm only down a few pounds but I can see and feel a difference and so can my bf. And I think it is mostly due to working out.

Vacation is tough. Personally I just try to not overeat and move a lot. If you don't gain on vacation, that's progress.

This isn't terrible. I've gone a few months before. I think the point is she wants to go and if it is cheap enough she won't cancel even if she isn't going.

I had a ton of side effects. But not weight gain. Still I'd never do it again.

This is the reason everyone suggests professional help for eating disorders. Because they are so complex and u can't just treat the symptoms.

It's possible you're eating more than you think. Or burning less if you eat back your exercise cals.

Well I haven't heard of that but I would think a stress fracture could be due to weight. Especially if it had recently gone up. But it seems like you are fine now. You may want to follow up at some point but it doesn't seem like a huge deal to me. Also that's messed up doctors shouldn't talk to people that way.

Well if you aren't trying to lose weight, based on your description from the holidays I would say yes.

I fell in love and cohaitated. This is a real issue l

First of all congratulations. That is impressive weight loss. Well I will say you will likely get used to it in time. I also want to share a personal experience with you which may seem harsh. But is sent from a place of caring. My father was morbidly obese my whole life. Upwards of 600 pounds at one point. He told me maybe…
