I do too. But i was starving myself before i started counting calories. Like it's go all day and just have broccoli for dinner...lol... But I'm losing stay now but i have to make myself and tell myself few times a day that i can eat whatever it is cause it's working my calories. Seriously i have to remind myself few times…

I hit a plateu at my last 13 lbs. I got an eliptical and Fitbit with heartrate monitor. I started working out on eliptical and my runs on the treadmill. I try to keep my heartrate in the peak zone the whole time. I started by losing again immediatly after starting.

I LOVE LOVE my eliptical. It kicks my rear everyday!

I hit a plateu after losing 71 lbs. I went thru ot for 3mths. Lost and gained the same 4 lbs. It was soooo disheartening. I increased the intensity of my exercises and broke thru. Now im losing a little over a pound a week again. I got a Fitbit with heartrate reader. I try to keep it in the peak range while i do my hour…

My mother is telling me i need to stop too Om 5'7 and just hit 160. I jisy now got my bmi to 25 lol..im like mom i just now got in the top of my healthy range. My husband is starting in on it too.

I did weight watchers for the past year and lost 71 lbs. I recently switched to calories because the new plan wasnt working for me. I tracked both places for a while but it was too time consuming. So now om just on MFP and losing at a steady rate again. Ww is good for accountability when ya need it. Thats how I lost what i…

Well I have an update folks. I've lost about 1.2 to 1.6 pounds the last 3 weeks. I'm eating about 1200 to 1300 calories a day. I do do the calorie banking. So on the weekends I do have one day where I'll eat more but then I'll take off calories everydaythroughout the week. So I'm usually banking for the week about 8600 to…

That's exactly what I've been doing. And got a food scale to weigh my food and I'm now losing. I take off a little for each day thru the week to have extras the weekend or just 1 day that weekend. I make a weekly calorie plan a week at a time and put how mamu calories each day that week according to what i got going on.…

Well i calculated 4mi in 1 hr os 4 mph lol duh me! So i uped it from 3.5 mph to 4mph amd it says 371 so that makes it make a little bit more sense. Still 60 cals difference.

I just come from Weight Watchers also. I lost 71 pounds on Weight Watchers but couldn't lose any more after the freestyle launched. I have been doing what they call calorie banking. Decide how much calories I get every day from my BMR and then I did my exercise that I typically do every week. I take that number times it by…

I use Premier protein caramel for coffee creamer. Very good and adds protein too.

Ok thank y'all for your help. I been logging hiit as circuit but ill start logging it as Calisthenics instead. Probably get the charge 2 for my eliptical and treadmill days to be more accuurate there.

I jog in place on a daily basis. Every chance i get. Watching tv, folding laundry, cooking. All the time. I get an hour in and its a sweat session at night watching tv. I dont half butt it. Knees in the air..lol

Have most of you found that when you do a diet break do you gain weight that week

Ok thank yall! I think if I have more than one glass a day I might log a few calories for it just to be safe.

Well I got my food scale in. I weighed out my grilled chicken and broccoli for my dinner tonight. And I can already tell I was under estimating the weights. What I thought was a 5.5 oz chicken breast weight in at 7 oz.. and the broccoli what I thought was about 30 calories worth was actually about 55 to 60. So just on…

I know right!! I literally get up do my two hours or so of exercise then I start chasing after my three toddlers all day it's constant nearly. Then by the time dinner is finished and bats are given I get in front of the TV and I jog in place rapidly to finish getting the 30,000. Then I literally collapsed on the couch and…

Yes that is my plan. I'll try to chime in a few weeks and let everybody know what the verdict was. Looking forward to weighing my foods and seeing the difference.

I'm saying that my Fitbit said I was burning that for the whole day that is including my BMR.... That was with over 30,000 steps a day... Those 30,000 steps are made up of at least two hours of Hardcore sweating 6 mph running hiit workout and 4 mile per hour walks. I'm usually at 15,000 steps by the time I get done with…

Oh my goodness I had no idea!!!!! I'm so glad you told me about this I will read that article!!

Well you are correct I was not weighing my food I'm still not convinced I was eating more than a thousand calories. I know you don't know me and it's impossible for you to know this but I am OCD and very strict and very particular. If a package is listening had 16 crackers is 120 calories out literally counted out 16…

Haha! Yes its aware of the 71 lbs lost

No lunch usually unless i I grabbed a handful of animal crackers or some Dry Cereal in which I counted out every piece and tracked it... And no I don't put anything on my chicken or vegetables except spray butter and or salt and pepper... And the only thing I put on my toast is spray butter the zero calorie... And I use…

Finally! Lolthank you that's what I was trying to say I didn't know how to say... Even if my fitbit's saying a little more and my calories is a little more I would still been at of deficit... even if ibwas actually eating 1400 instead of 1000 cals and only burning 2500 a day instead of 3500 i am still at a deficit....but i…

My current height is 5"7.5 and weight is 166..my goal weight is 150 maybe 145.

Thank you all so much for your advice and input. I really do appreciate everyone. As per y'all's advice I ordered me a food scale. I disconnected my Fitbit from MyFitnessPal. I changed my activity level to active on MyFitnessPal. And I'm going to manually log any exercises sessions that I do. And try to make sure I do…

Ok. I plan to get a scale and start weighing foods for sure. Im thinking about unplugging the fitbit and trying that. It will be hard for me cause i have relied on it so much but im gonna try. Lol. But if I do disconnect my fitbit it wont count my jogging in place and things that indo all thru out the day. I guess thatll…

I dont use any oils on my chicken...i place a breast vin the airfryer nothing on it...no oils EVER! I steam veggies.. or a salad with no cheese. Just imitation bacon bits and light italian dressing and lettuce. Nothing on my toast but spray butter. I dont drink Anything but water thru the day. I have a 48oz cup i drink on…

And I cannot see how I can possibly eat any less than what I am. I am starving constantly as it is. Pretty much don't even eat lunch except for maybe a banana. 3 pieces of toast with spray butter for breakfast. And then some chicken and vegetables for dinner. How on Earth can I possibly eat less than that. And like I said…

Yeah I hear what you're saying. I did not change the way I ate and I was getting 12000 steps a day. During the last two weeks I update to 30,000 or more steps a day. So obviously I started burning more calories. But I still have not lost any weight in the last 2 weeks. My food has stayed the same I made sure I did not eat…
