Rowed the last 2,500 meters of my planned workout instead of quitting at 10k like I really, really wanted to.

I have not had the pleasure of doing so.

A full rack of dry-rub ribs from Corky's in Memphis!

I drink water when my body tells me it needs it. That generally works out to four or five 20 oz bottles a day.

Your BF% could have gone up by 0.1% - which really isn't very much - even with a three lb weight loss if the loss was water weight.

Snacking isn't bad as long as the snacks don't put you over your daily calories. My daily meals in my food diary include a Morning Snack, Afternoon Snack, and Evening Snack. I try to keep the snacks to lower calorie, higher protein items like cheese sticks, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, cottage cheese, and so forth. I do have…

Same way I'm going from 370 to 220...time, perseverance, and calorie deficit.

Each person here can set their food diary to Private, Public, or Friends Only. If you're able to see a particular person's diary, there should be a View Diary link on any of their posts related to their diary. There may be other ways to get to them, but that's the one I'm aware of. My diary is set to Friends Only. Feel…

It's better than 99.9% of the conversations I've had outside my head over the past 60-some years. B)

Container of Greek yogurt and a glass of whole milk before my workout and a hard-boiled egg after.

I do a minimum of 30 minutes of rowing six days a week and weights on three of those days. Sunday is my rest day. I always feel kind of "out of place" when I'm not on the rowing machine on Sundays, but I make myself take the rest day anyway.
-
I've been on the weight-loss wagon for a little over a year in order to get my BMI down enough to have knee-replacement surgery. I told myself my knees couldn't handle working out at the gym, but at the urging of a friend, I tried it for a few days around the end of February. Now I'm hooked. I go six days a week and have…

Make the commitment be to something that helped you get to the point you now are, but that you enjoyed - or even loved - doing. For me, that's rowing. I started it as one part of my exercise program to help with the weight loss and discovered that I still love the rowing experience as much as I did my freshman year of…

I get up at 7:30 and am at the gym at 9:00. In between, I have a glass of whole milk and a container of Yoplait light yogurt (various flavors). After the workout, I have a 20 oz bottle of water with Hawaiian Punch powder mixed in and some Triscuits to hold me over until lunch.
-
Waist, butt, and arms (mostly forearms) for me. I've often wondered if the places the fat comes off of are in the reverse order of where it went on in the first place.
-
I drink my water with a Hawaiian Punch powder packet in each 20 oz bottle. I record the water and the packet because each one has 5 calories.

Consider the possibility that, at only 18 years of age, you may still be growing.

Perhaps the Subway ads triggered a flashback for the OP to a time when he/she was severely traumatized by a Subway wine stopper with banana peppers. :o

Go to My Home and then Goals. Scroll down on the Your Fitness Goals page to the Fitness box at the bottom of the page. Click on the Edit button in that box. Make the necessary changes in the When I Log an Exercise box and click the Save Changes button. Hope that helps.

The BP could be hereditary. Do you have a family history of high BP or other heart-related issues?

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death (or bugs), I shall fear no evil, for I am the meanest son of a b**** in the valley. B)

I'm "old," so my YouTube workout playlist tends toward 60s, 70s, and 80s rock, but I'll throw in more recent stuff if it gets my blood pumping.
-
Just taking a wild stab at something here: that you're concerned the scale won't reflect weight loss if you add muscle while eliminating fat because you've heard "muscle weighs more than fat" so many times. Anything you do on a regular basis to burn fat (cardio) - along with maintaining a healthy calorie deficit - will…
-
I do both. My cardio is stationary bike three times a week and rowing machine three times a week. With both, I do one-minute sprints several times during my time on the machine, and I increase the resistance over time as my strength increases. You don't have to pick one or the other and keep things at that level going…

Just keep in mind that you're getting thinner and fitter, but that person will always be an *kitten*. B)

Why did the chicken cross the road? To prove to the 'possums and the armadillos that it can be done. :p

There's a large group of people who run several miles before breakfast most mornings and then put in a full day's work with no adverse effects. They're called Marines. B)

Put the money you'd spend on fat burners toward a gym membership...and spend an hour or so there five or six times a week.
