  • Im 5'3" and I used fitness frog to calculate. I am happy with the inches but thought the scale would have moved a lot more. I workout with 2 heavier people and both have lost at least 25#, and are losing weight weekly. I know that they have a lot more than me to lose though so the weight comes off quicker. I was very…

  • Thanks. I will check out that book. The low calorie days.... I was told to decrease by calories, but that felt wrong, so I went back to 1200kcal. The days without entry...I was just busy. I have not hade any binge days, I may have a calorie heavy meal here and there. I have really tried to stay on track. As for the…

  • ok, so I add the 200-500 to my daily 1200, before the exercise calories are added in? My daily calories would be about 1500 + exercise calories?

  • inches lost is total body. arms, chest, waist, hips, thighs. And I don't understand the TDEE. I just go with what MFP gave me and try to eat back my exercise calories, but with all the water I drink it gets hard and Im just not that hungry. I just read about the nut and coconut butter combo for adding calories at the end…

  • 1# is since May. And yes I am weighing and measuring. Also, I only measured the other day and those inches lost are since I measured in February. I will see about the food diary again.

  • I also weigh daily. It is very interesting to see it change daily depending on my workout and diet. What app to you use to track the weight? I think I might want to try that. I am very visual, and need to see the numbers.
    in Why I weigh daily (repost) Comment by Corystormy July 2013
  • Thanks again. Today I ate 1/2 cup of blueberries before I exercised, I slowed my speed, and I concentrated on my breathing. Although I didn't run the whole time I felt that these changes were helping. I still had the stitch but as soon as it started I changed my breathing and pace and it seemed to dissipate quicker. I…

  • Thanks everyone. I know it isn't the drinking too much water because I exercise at 5:30 am. I just don't know if it is my breathing or my technique/ style of running ( I think that is the best way to describe it).

  • Thanks. I will try mouth breathing tomorrow. I drink a lot of water. But, I could be just replacing what I sweat. I will try to add more water the next few days also.
