typically find for steady state cardio MFP vastly overestimates the calories burned as opposed to a good HRM. HRM is good for tracking effort and getting closer to the actual calories burned.

Has happened to me a couple times from particularly strenuous workouts. Best answer I found/figured out is that your body holds on to water/nutrients to repair muscle. Typically this happened to me but the excess weight went away after a few days following.

This...same for me. Typically eat up to my calories and let exercise calories go where they will. Though recently transitioned into maintenance and have been maintaining app 170-175 at 5'10" for a couple months now no problems.

So eat more calorie dense foods (nuts, etc). And log those. Or take the advice above and start planning out your day?

My son is the same way. Try giving him the lighter greek yogurts. Sugars is around 6-12 grams and usually has 13+ grams of protein. Or you can try plain greek yogurt mixed with something he likes. Otherwise try sneaking meat into dinner items...!

Accupressure, sounds out there but works for me whenever I get a headache (rare). Specifically the point Ho-ku works for me. http://www.aurorahealthcare.org/services/headaches/tools/tools-acupressure.asp

The you would weigh X in 5 weeks is a simple calculation based on your calculated maintenance weight. If you are at a deficit it takes that times 5 weeks worth and calculates your total caloric deficit and states it in pounds. The lower you are for a day the more weight it will calculate you can lose. As far as starvation…

Depending on how much you have to lose the first week or two may be higher due to water loss among other things. I believe in the first week/two weeks I lost 8 pounds or so.

All I can add is to comment that measuring/eyeballing is a world of difference from weighing with an accurate scale. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVjWPclrWVY&feature=youtu.be That and log everything (cheat meals included). You can see my diary if you like and see that I do the same most weekends and have been successful…

Got all the calories in the food right....missed about half of the calories burned though. I kept estimating it would take longer to burn that much....

This was primary reason for my weight gain in the first place...drinking beer every night. First thing I did was cut beer/alcohol out during the week. I generally allow myself the weekend (Friday & Saturday) to drink beer or lately have been switching to hard alcohol and low calorie mixer (makers mark and diet coke or the…
