Agree, agree, agree! My boyfriend hates me for it. :P

bump!

bump!

I'm not Catholic either, but I still observe Lent as a chance to challenge myself. Hopefully change something for the better, you know? Anyway, I'm giving up something strange...the scale! I'm not weighing myself the next 40 days. I find that I've been getting frustrated and get really negative when the scale doesn't…

Right. I think I'll just experiment around with it and see what works. There's no need to log exercise if I just end up eating more and not losing the weight I "should" be!

Thanks, this is kind of what I was thinking as well. If I'm not as active on the weekends, I shouldn't bump my activity level up when it's not true for the whole week.

Thanks, I was thinking the same thing!

See, okay, this is why I've been so confused about it. My level is at "sedentary: Spend most of the day sitting (e.g. bank teller, desk job)." Which is true. But then if I don't count my walking that's like, 200 calories I'm burning that I don't count that don't factor in to this sedentary activity level. I guess I could…

Thanks guys! I was just feeling weird about adding something so simple that I do everyday as "exercise"...but I'm going to look into a heart rate monitor. I use one to work out with my Wii, but it really only works with that system.

I love this. For me, this rings very true. When I was thinner than I am now, I was an ice skater. I exercised intensely four days a week...but I still ate terribly. So while I technically was muscular, you couldn't tell under all the fat I was gaining from my eating habits.
