  • The question clearly says one person gets there calories from fast food. No assumptions made. That was the hypothetical situation :)
  • Are you using the mobile app? So quick & so easy. You're phone is always at your fingertips.
  • Idk... Maybe? But it perplexes me when people go on "diets" or consider themselves being healthy by eating the same crappy food just in smaller amounts. You will lose weight, but why not care about nutrients & what you're putting in your body? I am by know means super strict on my diet. Definitely a proponent of eating…
  • Honestly my cheat days aren't as structured as they should be lol! I've eaten whatever I wanted, but I usually still have a healthy breakfast. But in 5 weeks (currently I'm on week 6th of eating healthy/working out again after a pretty bad winter gain of 15 pounds
  • 5"10 ~ 167. I lose 2-3 pounds a week eating 1500-1700 calories a day. I usually have one cheat day where my calories are probably double this. But I workout 5 days a week and burn between 400 to 1000 each session. Most days I burn around 600-700 Cals. At 1500 with absolutely no exercise, I think you would definitely be…
  • Sunday. Sunday's are the least likely to be busy for me, so I can always stick to weighing in on that day. Weekdays are too hectic.
  • Haven't quite got it down to an exact number, but... I'm 5'10 At 165 I comfortably fit into most of my 7's At 155 I comfortably fit into most of my 5's ... So I guess I'd agree with the 10 pounds theory
  • I just start over. The first couple of days are tough, but if you keep that in mind you can fight through it just like you did the first time. I typically avoid the scale for a few days so I'm not shocked & disappointed. But on day 3 or 4 I'll get back on the scale to reevaluate where I'm at. The guilt will continue until…
  • Generally I don't log it if it was unplanned and outrageous. Logging it creates a feeling of guilt for me. When I don't log it I feel more like "aye, I effed up, but I'll start again tomorrow". I'm NOT recommending this for you or anyone lol. Just being truthful about how I operate.
  • I don't really know if it's possible for some of the people in this thread to be more annoying, condescending & petulant than they're being. YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT SHE IS TALKING ABOUT WHEN SHE SAYS "Cheat Day". It's irrelevant whether or not you agree with the term. That's not the question she asked, & even if you did want to…
  • Just letting you know that I won't be weighing in on Fridays. The day doesn't work for me because I'm usually up crazy early & running about... But I will input information on Sunday's. Please don't delete me from the spreadsheet!
  • Not sure why it wouldn't post my entire post from the mobile app. But Hi! Good luck on your journey... the friends and the community feature on here makes everything soooo much better, so you should get more into them if you aren't already!
  • 1) 22, single, no kids 2) joined MFP in 2012. I had lost close to 25 pounds before starting. Lost another 15+ after. Started back up 2 weeks ago about 10 pounds above my first time on MFP 3) Goal weight between 145-150. I'm currently monitoring calories. Doing group exercise classes 5/6x a week & short HITT interval runs…
  • I'm interested! Please count me in :D
  • Hi everyone! Please feel free to add me. I'm 22, I live in the suburbs of Chicago, and I'm currently looking to lose about 20 pounds. I've lost weight in the past, right now I'm tackling the winter weight I've put on in addition to the last 5-10 pounds I could never quite lose to hit my goal weight.
  • I lost the bulk of my weight, close to 40 pounds, freshman year of college on a meal plan and honestly, I DO NOT RECOMMEND you going out to buy the majority of your groceries and depending on that for the bulk of your meals. Financially, it doesn't make sense because you have to pay for the meal plan anyway, but…
  • I'm 5'10 and my goal weight is 150. The smallest I've been is 152. The smallest I've been that I felt I was able to easily manage was with proper diet and exercise was 154. Even at 152 I wasn't happy with my tummy, I felt like I still needed to lose 2-3 pounds in that area. But I want to be 150, and I think the difference…
  • I'm also surprised so many of you are eating so little ( 1200 calories) as well. But who am I to judge, I mean I've been there and done that and don't have good stories to tell about it. However, if you feel you are doing it the healthy way be my guest... just do a little more research if you already haven.t I'm 5'10 and…
  • I completed Level 1 Day 5 today (well yesterday since it just hit midnight). I haven't been sore or anything like that, but I was active before this DVD so I didn't jump straight into it. Today was the 1st day I did the entire workout with no breaks (granted a few times I moved a little slower than girls in the DVD). The…
  • I started the 30 day shred today! FEEL FREE TO ADD ME! A 30 day goal is perfect for me as well. I needed something new and different (why pay for a summer membership to my schools rec when I can run outside for free and this dvd only costs 7 bucks ???), and this challenge seems perfect. I'm planning to run 3.5 miles 5x a…
  • If you feel like you need a rest day, take one! Trust me, your body will appreciate it. I don't do any heavy lifting either, just a 30-36 HIIT run that ends up being just over 3 miles, and another 30 minutes of miscellaneous cardio, including uphill walking on the treadmill. I have just accepted the fact that my body, my…
  • I read every single goal! It's good to know I'm not the only one looking for improvement. For me... 1) Be 145 by the beginning of July (about 7 pounds away) 2) My birthday is june 11th, I pray to god I can get rid of some of this stubborn belly fat by then And this summer I'd like to wear * a bikini to the beach (i'll…
  • During my families visit this weekend my mom asked me "so, when are you going to buy new clothes? well, I guess you have to wait to see what size you'll be"... and it took me off guard. I'm positive it's because I was wearing too big leggings that I had to safety pin so if someone looked close enough they could tell they…
  • A horrible weekend of everything I generally try to avoid. Fried foods, potato chips, candy, donuts, cookies, ice cream, cake, cupcakes, chinese food... hmmm, yup, I think that about does it lol! But the good news is I won't be having any family weekends like that for at least the next couple of weeks, so it's time for me…

  • I'm almost 5'10. Started in the 190's a long while back. Got stuck in a few ruts after I got down to 160. Gaining weight, losing it again, regaining, relosing lol. CW: 155 GW:145 Trouble areas are my stomach and thighs. It seems my stomach will be the last place fat leaves from. I don't mind my bigger thighs I much as the…
