But how do I know if I'm logging calories accurately?. . . . I mean because the meat, potatoes and eggs may not be distributed evenly. . . If that makes sense.

I've got another question but I'll leave that for a new discussion. . . . . I need to print this thread to make sure I read all of the advice that I can. Thanks again everyone :)

Makes sense. . . . Thanks a ton!

So instead of entering fruit as 1, I need to weigh it and enter it that way?

I didn't realize that I need to be wei Ididn't realize that I need to be weighing bread and eggs. . . . The nutritional facts match up to what myfitnesspal says. . . Now I'm even more lost :(

I opened up my food diary. . . .

140 is what my doctor says i need to be at. I'm so focused on the scale because in order to have a healthy lifestyle, I need to be able to lose weight in a healthy way. So basically I need to update my calorie intake amd keep doing the same workouts?

Yes, I use a digital food scale for everything, along with the Barcode scanner on this app and I match it to the actual label of whatever it is that I'm scanning.

Over the summer, I didn't use myfitnesspal pal. We did a lot of traveling and I ate a lot. We did a lot of drive time and fast food and a lot of snacking. . I'm assuming out of boredom. I drank a lot of energy drinks to help keep me awake while we were driving at 2 or 3 am and again in the mornings to help wake me up.…

I gained 18 pounds over the summer because we were on vacation and we indulged on things that we don't get where we live. . . . . I didn't even use myfitnesspal this summer, I just started when my kids went back to school and I got back to the gym. . . . . . So how many calories should I be consuming a day? I know there is…

My speed and incline change because I I try to beat my previous days speed and distance. I don't use the dead weights, I use the resistance machines (that's what one of the gym staff called them) I do weigh my food. I stay away from cokes because they are empty calories and if I drink one then I drink more. I like the gym.…

I know it sounds like I'm starving myself. . . I'm not. I feel full with what I eat. By what everyone is saying, I need to add calories. My workouts consist of 30 minutes on the treadmill (sometimes more), the resistance machines and another cardio machine such as a stationary bike or elliptical. I am only able to go to…

I weigh 188 and I'm 5-2. . . Workout 4 times a week at the gym for 2 hours each day and do workouts at home on my 'off gym' days. How much should I be taking in a day to lose weight. . . About 1-2 pounds a week? I need to be back at 140.

I say over eating because I'm already full with being under 1200 calories and I stay very active. I log everything that I eat. I don't eat back my workout calories because I want to lose weight, not maintain it. I workout in the morning after I drop the kids off at school but don't log my workout till nighttime because I…
