it is totally normal to gain weight during 'that week' as your body retains water and general hormone changes messes everything up i gain up to 4lbs during TOM so i avoid weighing in at all as i know i'll be down about it

i have a weight watchers one that calculates weight/bmi/bodyfat % and water %....the body fat and water bits aren't accurate but the weight part has been accurate and doesn't fluctuate even if you step on it 10times(like i have done! lol)

i think it is a matter of choice...as one poster says, you only have one life..and if you can't have a treat now and then it's going to be a long boring one when it comes to food i do eat unhealthily sometimes...lastnight for example i had a portion of wedges and 2slices of pizza...but i was still under my calories, fat…

i probably should eat them and i will eat max 500 of them back(i usually burn about 1300 or so cals) but i'm never hungry enough to eat them all

it doesn't seem a problem to me...i eat the majority of my calories during the evening and it's never hindered my weight loss

i'm down 37lbs and my boobs are nothing!!! i've never been 'big' but i'm not far off flat now :( i doubt having two kids has helped with that though

i personally don't weigh in then as i know i'll feel gutted at the added weight!

my weight does this alot, i was getting quite depressed about it but as long as it overall goes back to a loss then i'm happy i have weird cycles where i'll rise and fall like that....or sometimes i steadily lose daily...weight loss is weird!!

it's all about finding out what works for you...some need to eat them, some don't... i personally spent months not eating mine back while working out loads, and it did work...i lost about 20lbs...then my body stopped shedding the weight and i got stuck...i started eating SOME of my exercise cals and again...i started…

i tend to eat a small snack before working out or i'll start to lag halfway through, and then have a decent meal after...it's all about what works for you i was working out and not eating after because i thought you weren't suposed to eat after 8pm...so wrong...i eat any time of day and it's not hindered my loss at all xx

it's totally dependant on size/weight....i use a polar hrm and for me(at 141lbs) it burns about 250cals during the 25mins!

i hadn't considered water weight tbh! i was unable to do anything besides basic walking while away as i was staying at family homes i hope you guys are right and it's just water weight cos i get married in a week and can't afford a weight gain! lol

i took yesterday off and ate whatever i wanted...yet only went 58cals over my goal!! whoop!!! got back on track today with 30day shred but am going away to family in the morning so won't be properly back on track until new year!

i am exactly the same...my machines tell me i burn nearly double the amount my hrm says, yet for walking and stuff mfp calculates less than the hrm

i really wish i got sick, maybe i wouldn't eat so many chocs! :(

mine have shrunk to nothing! i was a D and am not barely a B....my boobs are now horrid...i think all my weight seems to be coming off of those

istep on, check it, then repeat 2more times just to be sure, the scale rarely gives a different reading

with only a 250cal burn on the shred(i use a reliable hrm) i didn't think 1200 would be too low...i also eat alot of protein, with being vegetarian i am nearly always over on my protein as i eat a lot of quorn

i'm a week into the 30day shred by jillian micheals...it's great because it's only 25mins so doesn't feel like too much of a challenge after a hard day dealing with the kids

hey all!! well today i did my normal 2hour cardio(burns average 1150cals) and then i did the 30day shred(day 1) and omg i literally couldn't walk down the stairs, i had proper jelly legs!!! having seen some of the pics from that i'm hoping it'll tone my hips and tummy a little! anyone else doing it!?!

don't beat yourself up...take it as a bump in the road and carry on 2days ago i had a pizza for lunch(small one) but ate good for the rest of the day, yesterday i munched on a few of my kids sweets and went out for dinner...i felt bad, and today the scale was up 1/4lb but i just hit the treadmill harder today don't sweat…

i do....but i tend to exercise alot to gain a good 300-500cals back(still leaving an exercise deficit of about 650ish)

oh thankyou SO much!

i'd take it as a cheat day and get straight back to it tomorrow i tend to not log when i have a bad day as i feel awful seeing i've gone over, but i make extra effort the next day

oh no...how do i get my pics up properly!?!

right...here is me in my wedding dress....still 20lbs to lose overall but can't see myself losing more than 7-10lbs in 5weeks!

hey girls!! 1month and 6days until my wedding...and i got my dress yesterday!!! it's absolutely stunning...but i still feel like an absolute blob in it ...not sure whether to post pics on here or to my profile!?!

when i did the gym(i have my own home gym now) i used to be one that was on the phone half the time...it kept my focus off of the workout and onto something else...i can see that it would be annoying to others though

i hve asked for medicine balls, kettlebells, a new step, the jillian micheals dvds(am waiting for 30day shred to arrive) i'd also like a nice supply of promax diet but can't see that happening! lol

i really do appreciate your advice. i've read people giving tips saying don't eat after 8pm etc, so i figured it was something i should stick to. i am aware it isn't a joke...i wouldn't be sweating my backside off for 2hours after a long day dealing with 2kids if i thought it was, and i really don't want to damage my…
