Well the pain is from hip to toes on my right leg but mostly it in the back of my right thigh and walking at a faster pace or standing on my tip toes or even twisting a certain way sends a shock of pain like nothing I've felt. I don't plan on doing any exercise for a while but still keeping under my daily calorie intake…

I am seeing a therapist and trying to get control over my thoughts about myself

I don't go hard I exercise at a moderate pace but I do it several times a day anywhere from 4 to maybe 6 times a day 5 days a week. I am forced to not exercise now that I have the pain. And my husband keeps telling me to take a few days rest but like I said I still see myself as really big and when I eat I feel guilt that…

My husband told me the same thing, but it's hard not to exercise I have a lot of bad body image emotions I still see myself as bigger than I am. If I eat like a cup of ice cream I feel like I have to exercise for an hour

I think I may have picked a nerve

I have a digital kitchen scale as well. I weigh and measure everything I pay close attention to food labels and always stay either at or under my daily calorie intake but the pain is preventing me from doing any amount of activity especially walking or running or even squats. I just tried to and when I got off my back my…

Right now on this app my daily calories is like 1450 I'm assuming that's with a deficit I try to get as close to that everyday and even now I try to push myself into doing exercise but the pain is completely unbareable and at times leaves me in tears

I don't know obviously you can't trust everything you read on the Internet. Either way I'm not trying to use simple task (washing dishes, sweeping or mopping or even sex) for exercise. My main source is a stationary bike and when I get my treadmill I ordered I will start running. I also use resistance bands and a ab wheel…

I looked it up thru the search engine on my computer and it says men burn about 100 calories from start to finish where as women only burn roughly 68 calories

I could care less about seeking any attention it was a question asked out of pure curiosity simple as that. I'm not one to go bragging about my sex life or lack there of. I was just curious as to how many calories it burns and why some people say it's a good cardio.

Who says I'm having sex

I was just curious as to why it's not in the list when doctors and all my friends say it's good cardio

Yea I looked online and it don't burn hardly anything

You know there's really no need to be rude, I was simply asking a question and as far as looking up the exercises you have to put in x amount of time before it tells you how many calories you burn I just wanted to know if anyone can point out which one is the most effective and burns more that's all. But seeing as how a…

I went thru every exercise on both cardio and strength I was just curious cause everyone tells me that's a good cardio apparently not cause its not listed so what is a really good high calorie burning cardio exercise that really gets the heart pumping

Thank you after reading all of your comments I realize I am being silly and expecting too much so I am just going to keep doing what I'm doing ie weighing and logging my food and exercise and try to stay as positive as I can even if I gain a little back.

So as long as I don't over eat the alloted calorie goal I will still lose weight? I try not to push for longer workouts but instead do frequent 10, 20 or 30 minute workouts through out the day. I can't walk in my neighborhood it isn't safe for a woman to walk alone even during the day. So I have a stationary bike I hit at…

No I have not been testing for any thing like that and the only things I'm trying to cut out is refined sugar and carbs and of course calories I don't really eat low fat but I don't over indulge in it either

Have any of you dealt with like bloating or constipation since you started weight loss journey cause I'm having a hard time (sorry about the pun)

Thanks everyone. My husband is shocked by my progress and says I should be proud of what I've accomplished ( I should be too) but I have friends and family telling me I should be going hard or go home....guess I'm trying to prove something. When I exercise I only do like 10, 20 or 30 minutes at a time

It all feels like bloat weight and I can't stop going pee (gross I know...sorry) I have to force myself to eat at least 1200 calories a day cause I don't want to starve myself but it's honestly hurting my belly

I just wonder if I am suppose to be burning more calories. I would have to shift things around to fit more exercise into my day but honestly the pain I'm in right now feels like I've been exercising all day. So do I need to be burning more calories?

Thank you, as I said I'm not good at math (it's a flaw) lol

Okay using your example tell me if I have this right (sorry I'm not real good with math at all) Diced tomatoes has 30 calories and 3.5 servings per can, bush's chili beans has 110 calories and has 6 servings per can, ground turkey has 160 calories and is 1.25 pounds. Adding the two cans together 116 + 33.5 = 149.5 the…

When I looked up turkey chili with beans in the search on mfp I found one that was verifies by mfp as 220 calories per serving which to me sounds more realistic than 37 calories for one cup should I use the one that's been verified? The only problem I have there is I don't know if they used canned chili beans, canned diced…

Okay I just scanned all the ingredients to my chili but when it asked for how many people it serves there are only 5 in my family including myself. I may be doing something wrong though cause it's saying 37 calories for one cup

Yes it says 1/2 cup

The only bad thing about weighing the finished product is that my kitchen scale only goes up to like 11 pounds I wish there was a app where you can scan all the ingredients and it adds it up with the proper serving size. I know all the calories for my chili is 320 calories total and it says on each can 1/2 cup serving…

Thank you so much for helping me

Thanks for sharing first of all, second what do you do to figure all the calories in a home cooked meal? For example say I was making homemade chili with canned chili beans,diced tomatoes and pinto beans and instead of ground beef I used ground turkey and chili season packet. Each canned item says serving size 1/2 cup but…
