Mine do the same thing! My doctor told me it was because i am dehydrated. I told him i try to drink lots of water and it still happens. He explained that In the heat, and when you exert yourself, you have to stay well hydrated, that is first off. The other thing is that if you don't have enough salt, or potassium this will…

ok...i don't know why i can't wrap my head around this, i mean it makes sense, but i am eating 1220 and losing 1lb a week. According to fitness frog calculations-my BMR is1377 and my TDEE is1916. So if i am doing the math right, i should be eating 1960?? Or 1629 with the 15% reduction? Should i gradually move up if i am…

I would just eat light for the rest of the day. You shouldn't go too long between meals or your body will hold onto all that fat thinking that you are starving it. It's just one day......tomorrow you can start fresh again. Don't beat yourself up about it!

the hahaha comment was for the pregnant question

Yep....still trying to do the math on that one. I did up it from 1200 to 1220 for fear of going up to much because i am not active some days and super active on others. Going through alot of adjusting to get it right. Thanks :smile:

Hahahaha!!!! Funny one.....ah no:laugh:

Thanks everybody for your input! That is why i love this site. Everyone is so willing to help with suggestions and helpful information. I will take all of them into consideration and if they don't go away i will see my doctor. So nice to have friends that are going through this journey together! :flowerforyou:

That's what i thought too at first! Just started taking a women's one a day multivitamin. :happy:

I really struggle with getting 8 glasses of water in. I get in about 4 to 6 most days. I try to add some kind of water flavor that you put in your bottled water. Or a little juice just for flavor. I was adding a packet of sweetener to each bottle...but as some have suggested , that may be the problem :/

just a coffee in the morning

Hi, welcome to the site! I have been on here for a month and have lost 9 lbs. I love this site, the support is wonderful!

Good to hear you are committed to making positive changes in your life! Welcome

Thanks so much for all the info.!

thank you! Watched some of the videos and it does make sense, but i still understand the math equation to use for maintenance minus 15%. What is tdee she talks about. Sorry, not good at math at all. I can give you the numbers if someone can plug them in to the eqation for the answers.

from what i am learning is that i said that i wanted to lose 2 lbs a week, so that is where they set me at.

yes my question as well! How do you do the math to figure out the calorie allowance a day. I have 50 to lose and my calorie intake was set by mfp to 1200. At that time, i said i would excercise 20 minutes 3 times a week. I excercise has been more like 100 to 200 min. a week . My BMI is 1314 calories. Do i need to reset it…
