Oh and I also gaind two pounds since yesterday!!!

THANK YOU!

Youre clearly uneducated on the FACTS of her death. Her ORIGINAL death certificate said she was MURDERED, because SOMEONE injected the medicine into her, then JFK got her death certificate changed to Suicide. .Dont argue with me on the facts of her life. I know them. And as for the picture of what she looked like before,…

Marilyn Monroe is my idol. I do not think she was a drug addict. I think she was brilliant. Ive read SO MANY books about her written by her family, close friends, ect. it makes me sad when peple say she was a slut. Long Live Norma Jean!

thanks guys! thats what i thought and imglad some people understood my question :) i work day shift and im nervous that i will gain, so lets see!

And i do have a calorie deficit, and i work out 5 days a week. Im not stupid. I know what you need to do to lose weight. But other than my workouts I am not very active and now i will be more active at work.

I was asking becaue i have heard stories from others who works as aides, and they said all the physical activy helped them lose weight. And im not really blonde, I just make them look better :)

FANTASTIC!!!! my starting weight was similar and my goal is 145. hopefully i look as good as you :)

that was so incredibly rude. I didnt post this topic to get insulted, I posted it because I wanted clarification, which i have now. im not fat. and i dont want to be "skin and bones".

i have more than 20 pounds to lose. this is my forum and my topic so threfore i am commenting on it. if thats a problem for you then quit reading it. MFP is supposed to be a POSITIVE site, not one for people to get an attitude with eachother. I dont know you, and you dont know me. So stop.

i am not aiming for two pounds a week of weight loss, i was asking how much weight loss it will even out too.

thanks everyone :) I think im finally starting to understand!

Okay, I am lightly active, so i multiplied by 1.375, which said I need 2,100 calories a day. I eat 1200 net calories, So how much weight loss does that put me at per week?

Im so confused. You multiply your BMR? For what? Ugh this is confusing.

MFP has told me and several of us others to eat 1200 calories a day.

When you lost the 40 pounds on WW did you eat back your exercise calories? I do use whole wheat pasta, and bread, and I have been eating lots of lean cuisine and salads, I drink ONE diet pop a day because I am addicted to caffiene and get sick if I don't have some :/ And I have also switched out chips for crackers. :)I…

Thanks for making it simple! I was thinking about going up to 1500 when I exercise also, even though that still isnt ALL of my exercise calories. Are you losing two pounds a week still?

I put the resistance on a level 3 at first, then in about 10 minutes I go up to a 4 and in 40 minutes i burn between 500&600 :)

This is MY thread and I really dont need people to insult me. "You can lead a horse to water" ... whatever. I am just trying to make sure I understand. I have gained 30 pounds over the last three years since having my son and I am reading so many different things and do not know what to believe because different things…

So someone please tell me, what is the POINT in exercising if you just eat back everything you burn off??

yes, that is indeed me, about 15 pounds ago. :/

and the only problem with what you are saying is that i want to lose TWO pounds a week, not one. So how do I go about HEALTHILY doing that?

so then my next question would be what about when i do NOT exercise? then I stick with the 1200 calories right?

so is that how you've been losing so much weight?

I just dont see the point in exercising to burn off calories if you are just going to put those calories back on. that doesnt make sense to me. :/

you look AMAZING!!! how did you do it?
