It's good that you recognize you're not fueling your body enough. I agree with trying some kind of protein shake or smoothie in the morning, make it the night before and have it in hand in the morning.

There's a reason the Diamondbacks initials are DB. Giants all the way!

If it has calories - log it. 243 calories is a lot to ignore.

I have about 80 to lose and I am starting now =) From what I've read it helps with fat loss as well as body composition - no reason to put off something that is part of what you're trying to achieve!

If you go into the set up and hit save it will force the re-calculation for you

Your BMR is the least you can eat. Your TDEE is basically a calculation of how many calories you would need to consume to maintain your current weight. Why work out? From what I have read building muscle can help aid in fat loss. What you are describing (sitting and eating less) is overall loss of weight, both fat and…

Yesterday was arms and abs with a 10 min doing intervals on the elliptical before & after (20 min elliptical total). Today I will be taking the dog for a walk and trying to get some sun on my pale skin.

Wear it with flats! There are a lot of cute styles out right now

I don't buy many. I had a pair of pants I bought on clearance before dieting that didn't fit (I neglected to tried them on) so I hung them on my bathroom door when I started dieting. They're now too big so my boyfriend bought me a cute pair of shorts a size too small (I can button and zip them but it's not really cute) to…

Thanks for the advice! I've been doing no less than 1771 but ranging upwards of that on some days (my average is around 1800). It seems to be working for me, I'm never hungry but I also don't feel bloated. I've been peaking at the scale and I'm maintaining a loss (whereas before I was spiking between 5 pounds even when…

I'm 26 and always looking for more MFP buddies!

Salads! Try different dressings and add on and leafy green mixes until you find what works for you. And vegetable steamer bags are great as well and easy to add to any meal. Since you're a little under your cal goal you can try raw fruits and veggies with peanut butter. I love it! Always pre-measure your peanut butter…

What a difference! Great job!

I saw this picture on the news stand yesterday and thought how nice it was that they weren't saying she was overweight in the magazine. I thought she looked great. It was refreshing to not see an anorexic on the magazine cover.

I did WW online from April to October of last year and it was awesome for getting me into good habits. MFP is perfect for the next phase of my weight loss. Feel free to add me!

The calculator is one of the links I have listed. They're high because I'm heavier.

I, personally, wouldn't count the pedometer. You need to be eating your BMR, here's an article that explains why: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/3047-700-calories-a-day-and-not-losing. There's a formula in the Olivia Method that states how many calories you can burn without eating them back so make sure to stick…

If you're losing inches but not pounds and working out at the gym you are most likely losing body fat and gaining muscle. Muscle is more dense than fat so, while you may weight the same, you are actually losing body fat. Ignore the scale for a while and just focus on losing those inches.

Under "My Home" you go to "My Goals" and you can change it there. The 616 number is the amount of calories you can burn without eating them back.

I got a pack at Costco that includes 7 different vitamins. It's 100 days worth and I may switch after. Before that I was using a generic women's daily multi-vitamin.

Bumping this. Really great post, thank you so much.

I live in Sacramento! Originally from Loomis and excited to be in Sac after a stint in Reno. I have a 24 Hour Fitness membership too.

It is time to see a doctor. Only a doctor will be able to tell you for sure what is going on. Please bring along your food diary.
