I always log my calories, and exercise. I have been vegan all year and have lost 60 pounds. Eat lots of salads and soups, (bean, lentil, split pea). I limit the whole grain carbs to only a few servings a day, not with every meal. So, if I have a sandwich for lunch, I won't have toast in the morning or rice with dinner. I…

Get a heart monitor, it is my favortie new toy. This really helps you keep track acurately of calories burned for your height, weight, age, etc. You can also see how your fitness level improves. Sometimes it takes two weeks or more for my body to get into the flow of losing weight...so be patient. Celebrate any sucess you…

How long did it take you to put on the weight? Think about that! Now be patient, and keep giving your body good food and exercise!

Just eat it! You can guess the calories, you still need to be living real life! Situations like this are going to come up all the time, just make good choices throughout the rest of the day, and make sure to get some exercise.

I used to run cross-country in college, and our coach had us run through the grass, barefoot, on the balls of our feet, maybe 100 yards, backwards and forwards. He would have us do this after a workout. Try checking runnersworld.com, they have great resources for runners!

RICE....REST, ICE, COMPRESSION, ELEVATION...this is the standard procedure for running pain/injuries.

yes count me in!

Hi there, 403 cals for 2 pizzas, 25 grams protien, 11 grams of fiber...I don't record fat, so I don't know.

Hey there, how to you get that digital/avatar type graphic of yourself?

Ezekiel Whole Wheat Pitas Trader Joes Marinara Sauce Yves Meatless Pepperoni Follow Your Heart Vegan Mozerella Bake in the the oven at 450 for 10 minutes....crazy good!

yep, always weigh yourself naked, at the same time every morning...maybe after going to the bathroom, before eating or drinking.

Swimming? no impact....

Someone once said to me: "nothing tastes as good as thin feels"....sooooo true. Maybe tell yourself that!

Trader Joes has these awesome pre-cooked black lentils, lots of protien... also, check on the internet for recipes to make your own seitan. It is a type of meat substitute entirely made out of wheat, and very high in protien.

Hi there, I have been a vegetarian for the last 15 years. The main concern is that you can tend to fill up on carbs too much by cutting out meat. Make sure you eat only whole grains, and no refined sugars (high fructose corn syrup, etc. Also, avoid hydrogenated oils). Being a vegetarian does not mean you will be…

I have lost 10 pounds each of the last 2 months. Simply eating my calories on MFP and walking for exercise 30-60 min 3-4 times per week.

just get back on track and stop worrying about it. A little fluctiation in calories is no big deal, just don't make it a habit. I don't think you need to compensate with exercise, just do what you would normally do on a good day.

Hi there, I would love to see some before and after photos of anyone who has succesfully lost weight using my fitness pal....if you have some on your profile that you are proud of, please message me, it would be so inspiring...

Hi there, my weight loss has tapered off since I started eating my exercise calories...everyone said to eat them, I am not sure what to do either...

Hi there, my tracker is telling me to eat about 1250 calories per day to lose my goal weight. The problem is, when I enter in my exercise, this number goes up. Am I supposed to eat more calories than the 1250? Or is it just telling me the deficit I created by exercising? I don't want to eat too few calories, and I…
