That sounds great. I will start tomorrow with those numbers and let you know in 2 weeks what the results were. Thanks again!

Not a problem. Thank you for taking the time to help! In the past, I have tried every scam and false promise out there. I have 2 daughters and I want them to grow up knowing what it feels like to be healthy, to sweat, but also to enjoy food, not be controlled by it. I want to learn to do this right, not just for me, but…

I do have hypothyroidism and take medication for it. My levels though haven't been tested since I started losing, just right before. I will talk to my doctor and see if we need to test again. I haven't been tested for PCOS at all, so I may look into that also. I'm so thankful for your help.

On 2/15 it was 187.6, 2/22 was 185.8, 3/1 was 188.2, 3/8 was 188.8, and today was 187.8. I really want to do this the right way and feed my body what it needs, but the increase in calories has me gaining and after working so hard to lose it, I am getting frustrated. The 1200 to 1400 calorie range seemed to work very well…

We got a digital scale about a month ago and when I am at home (which is usually just evening food) I do measure or weigh it out. I am getting a scale to bring to work so I can weigh here also, but I don't have it yet.

**long. Also, I doubled checked the numbers and it was actually 2672 average daily burn.

Sorry it took me so ling to get back to you. I only have the desktop site at work on my breaks. I used the BMF for 3 months and the average daily from December 1, 2012 to February 13, 2013 was 2465. I stopped using it so my husband could get an idea of his average as well. The last couple of days have been really bad for…

It is a fat, bloated kind of feeling. I did notice that on some of the more recent days, my sodium was higher than normal, so I am trying to keep an eye on that. I always seem to be way over on carbs and way under on protein too. I'm glad its a common thing and am hoping I will adjust before long. Thank you again!

Those were full days of logging. I didn't start researching the "eat more weigh less" idea until just a few weeks ago. I am one of those who were programmed to believe that losing the weight was better for your body even at the risk of bordering starvation. Honestly, increasing has been very hard for me and most days I…

That sounds good. Thanks for all of the help you provide!

Sorry, I forgot it was only open to friends. It is now public. In February, the total lost was 5.3 lbs. I have been eating higher for a couple weeks, but seem to just be gaining. Thanks!

What an amazing story! That is the kind of success we should all be looking for, not just a number.

Bump for later.

I have migraines pretty frequently, sometimes up to 15 a month. I have been on many different kinds of meds for them, but nothing works like 2 Goody's powders as soon as I feel one coming on. They are somewhat hard to find and the orange flavor is a must. They are a combination of Aspirin, Acetaminophen, and caffeine. I…

Awesome! I love it when the kids notice all the hard work you put in. My 6 year old told me the other day as she poked my belly that I wasn't as "squishy" as I used to be. Keep up the good work (and let her know how much you were encouraged by her comment)!

I used my MIO this morning along with the runtastic pedometer app. Runtastic said I burned 314 calories in the 30 minutes, but the MIO only said 128. I have read that the sweat on your arm can affect the reading. Which should I use as correct? I am a gadget lover, but want to make sure I make the best decision that will…

The only thing I have noticed is that I am thirsty a lot and my eyes seem drier than normal. I drink usually around a gallon of water a day, so to be thirsty seems strange to me, but I have lost 5 lbs since the 1st of October, so it must be working! Other than that, I have had no problem sleeping, being jittery, or…

Hi! I just joined a few days ago and started taking Adipex this morning. I am currently at 229.5 lbs and am in need of losing at least 15 of those pretty quickly. I am a potential kidney donor for my Mother in Law and my BMI is just a bit too high to be accepted. I am sticking to right around 1000-1200 calories and trying…
