Whenever you drop below 1500 calories a day its hard to get all the nutrients you need daily. Not having certain nutrients can cause this. If it keeps happening you should go to your doctor to get blood tests since it also could be your thyroid or something else.

Great Job!!!

I started at 1200 then went to 1400 then finally stopped at 1600 where I finally started dropping lbs. Play around until you find what fits you.

I was stuck in an airport last week and the only place open to eat was Friday's. I can work with that menu I thought, but all they were serving was appetizers, and were waiting on lettuce from another location so no salads. I ate like crap and went over big time. I was upset but went back to my normal plan and have lost 5…

I love it and use it daily to assist with my calories. You can also see your sleeping patterns and when you wake up at night. You can also segregate your workout steps so it does not double count with MFP.

Yes, when you set it up it will be able to tell the difference between the two strides.

I buy them at Krogers and WalMart, and I know Mayberry has a WalMart.

I prepare one cup of fruit (blackberries or strawberries) the night before in a ziplock press and seal cup. I then throw a Special K breakfast sandwich in the microwave for 1.5 minutes and eat on my commute. The Special K breakfast sandwiches are pretty new to the market. They have Egg and Cheese (180 calories), ham, egg…

I thought those were banned, unless you are Lady Gaga.

Banana Pudding (If you have enough self control to eat one serving) You can use low fat Cool Whip if you want to save five calories per serving (not worth it in my taste opinion). Also, the low calorie nilla wafers are the way to go. You cannot tell the difference in the taste, but I dont have any around for the…

Hi Natasha, i have tried Dr. Oz's remedies but really didn't have any success with any of it. I do use green tea when I use a two-day jump start once a month, but mainly follow a 1600 calorie diet. A little more if I work out, but mainly go over with protein to feed my muscles within 30 minutes of my workout. I just…

If I am hungry I will, if not I wont. I spend some of my burned calories on workout days with protein after the workout.

When you get sick your immune system is fighting the battle on the inside. If you continue to work out you assist the virus by wearing down your immune system from the outside (workout). Remember that your diet is the main reason for your success and if you lower your calories to compensate the lack of working out, you are…

I agree, I think the photo is not appropriate.

Here are my suggestions: Plan ahead with your menus. I scan or enter my next day the night before. Have some protein after your workout. Your muscles will eat up the protein quick, unless you pass the window of an hour. This assists in muscle building that will burn fat. My doctor suggested one cup of !% Horizon Chocolate…

Well, I started 2.5 months ago at 362 and have dropped 44 lbs. 40 of that was without excercising, just planning my food out. I am currently eating 1550 to 1600 calories a day. I played with pal previously but just got seroius in January. The key is planning and preperation for the week. Good Luck, and get ready to start…

It feels great doesn't? I just took all my dress pants to the tailor today and she needs to take them in around the waist three inches. She told me if I lost 20 more pounds I would have to buy new ones. Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

Stuff happens. If you are hurting, just ice down the knee and try to do better tomorrow. Don't mess with it because knees wont heal if not rested when strained. I have had six different knee surgeries from sports.

You should eat a little more. After your 20 minute excersise you should eat something with protein within 2hours. My doctor said he saw something about drinking 8oz (one serving) of chocolate milk. I did the research and he was right, plus it's a nice reward after a hard workout. This assists with building muscle which in…

If you only eat 500 calories your body will enter a starvation mode after a short time. This will not only stop weight loss, but also effects your organs (skin and hair included). If you can't eat all the time check out food supplement drinks but food is needed to energize your body to burn fat properly. I am not a doctor,…
