Me too, starting again. I lost it before, kept it off for awhile, and now I am back, because I have no idea how or when the weight creeped back on, when I stopped running, etc. I've been back for about a month. I lost 6lbs in my first couple weeks here, but it all came back over a week-long vacation where I didn't track my…

Haha I'll go with that one for now!

I appreciate it! I am just getting so much conflicting advice that it's hard to make a game plan. I have also been recommended that book, perhaps it's time to buy it and start a new plan. Sometimes I feel sort of dumb ripping it up on the cardio machines, knowing I'm not getting strong. Being strong is a lot more admirable…

I do some strength - but it's on Cybex circuit weight machines and not free weight lifting so I was hesitant to mention it. I do machines like hip abduction, row, fly, lat pulls, leg curl, leg press, abdominals, etc. I can do 3 reps of around 35-50lbs on the various arm machines, 35-80 on the legs, depending on the muscle…

Perhaps you're right. I could have SWORN these pants were starting to fit looser a few weeks ago...maybe they really were and I am retaining water? I drink 6-14 cups a day, so my body's crazy if it's trying to hold on to water. I want to get strong and toned, but if I'm being honest with myself, this is only half about my…

I'm having the same problem. I've lost 10lbs by creating a moderate calorie deficit and using mostly cardio machines, but my jeans are fitting tighter. It's very frustrating! I can see a little weight loss in my stomach area, but the bottom half of me is not improving, and it almost seems possible that it's getting worse.…

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one! Breakfast has never felt right for me. It just feels like stuffing a pointless extra 300 cals into my body for the day. Plus, I have never been a fan of breakfast type foods. My dream breakfast is lunch! I'm not hungry when I wake up, and like other people said, I'd rather use my…

I know 4 calories isn't something to worry about - but if it was 100 calories every day, I would want to track that! I am talking about a LOT of hot sauce every day, not one serving. I decided not to count it though, in case anyone else with a similar question was curious. My reasoning is that I will probably always eat…
