I used weightgrapher.com and logged my weight after getting out of bed in the morning and emptying my bladder. I found myself getting too annoyed at unexplained fluctuations so I decided to shun my scale for one month, keep up my normal routine of calorie counting and exercise and see how much I weigh in a month. Yesterday…

http://www.hungry-girl.com/biteout/show/2032-hg-salutes-wonton-wrappers This has some lovely ideas and Hungry Girl usually sticks to healthier options :)

Here's a bunch of recents pulled off my instagram... Glazed chicken & couscous salad. Salad with chicken, veggies and mozzarella balls. Low fat feta salad. Goat cheese salad with strawberries and grilled pear. (I really, really like salads...) Smoked salmon & poached eggs - had this in a cafe but have replicated it myself…

I cook the same meals for the both of us. He just has bigger portions and I try to eat more salad and veggies alongside my dinner to counterbalance some high calorie or carb stuff that might be in there. Portion control is all you need...that and IIFYM.

I weigh myself every morning, after going to the bathroom, naked. I log my weight in www.weightgrapher.com because it shows me the overall trend in a better manner than MFP does. On MFP, I log whatever my new low is. Even if my weight goes up, it might be due to the time of the month, bodily functions, water, etc. If I…

Three months of hard work. That's about 27lbs for you imperial people. Still going at it! EDIT: Fixed image sizing.

If you're actually adding something to "dinner" let's say, just search for the item, choose the one you're interested in, and underneath the red writing on the right it says "nutritional information". Press on that and it'll show you the info, then you can decide if you want to check out another entry or choose that one.…

I pretty much inspired both of my parents to get back in shape (both with a few extra kilos to lose but overall rather unfit) and my mom thanks me for it very often. My boyfriend just decided to eat healthier with me, which is nice and he'll also join me for running once I buy proper running shoes. As for everyone…

Thanks everybody - guess I just need to adjust to this calorie bomb and forget about it - Tomorrow is a fresh start and tonight I can have a killer gym session! I failed to put this one flop into the bigger perspective & focused too much on just one day. I appreciate these uplifting comments :)

Nope. My boyfriend is in another country for the holidays :(

Bleu de Chanel. It.is.amazing. I gifted it to my boyfriend and I honestly can't stop cuddling close to him or kissing his neck when he wears it...

Sure ;)

When I first started, I'd see a little drop (0.2kg) every few days. Then it stopped. Now I'm used to seeing myself 1kg heavier than my official weekly weigh-in (they day I record my weight) for a week, maybe with a small decrease. It's so frustrating and I just want to understand why without being told about my menstrual…

Although I won't have an access to a gym when at my parent's place, I will still go running and do some home workouts, there's enough videos for that. And I've got to keep up with my 30 day ab and squat challenges :) I'm not going to let the holidays stop me - even if I don't work out on actual Christmas day.

I have switched to only Saturday weigh-ins. The only reason I weighed myself more this week was because I was sick and not doing any exercise. I'm just totally bummed that I was a kilogram down two days before my weigh in, and come Saturday, I was a kilogram up and exactly at the same weigh as I was the previous week. How…

I suggest you prep a lot of veggies to snack on when you're at home. Carrots, cucumbers, celery, cauliflower, cherry tomatoes, etc. They satisfy the 'snacking' craving and you can dress them with a bit of hummus or make dip out of low-fat greek yoghurt or sour cream. Add a little salt, pepper, cumin and mustard and it…

Ooh, you and I are in the same boat. I forgot to mention wine in my comment.

Definitely Doritos or all sorts of cheeses. Luckily, I've been quite good at restraining these wants when I've had a bad day and thus the cravings have decreased. *proud of self*

I forgot to mention that I've also been doing the 30 Day Ab Challenge for about a week now, which means my abs are sore almost each day. But I guess I just have to relax and not think about it so much. Thank you for the input and hopefully I can continue my progress soon...

I upped my weights in the middle of last week - I can now do a lot less reps but I also feel the difference after my work out. I haven't seen a difference in my body in a long while - as I mentioned, measurements haven't shown anything encouraging and I don't think my arms or legs look any more toned either. Hence the…

I finished my period last Monday - and that's when this stall pretty much began. Previously, I weighed myself daily but when I don't see a loss, just a little up and down it really made me depressed so I thought I'd take a break this week and resume once my weight has stopped stalling. I'm logging accurately - just as I…

I will try to up the amount of meat in my diet. I generally aim for 1300 calories a day. When I first started calorie counting, staying within those boundaries seemed impossible and now I struggle to make up the missing calories - guess I have been *too* afraid to 'indulge' with my meal sizes. Hopefully eating slightly…

I'd say at least three days a week, I will have only half of my recommended protein (not intentionally).

A sammich, as delicious as they can be, would be forcing myself to eat on most occasions and if I'm not hungry, I will feel horrible afterwards if I'm just trying to up my calories. That, and I'm trying to eat less bread.

I'd also considered protein powder. What kind should I look into? I've heard that whey protein powder is a good start - correct?

Never considered my cycle - I have just finished my period that that might account for the slower weight loss. I guess I should watch how it is next month. But I'm glad to hear that weight loss isn't consistent, even if I am with my nutrition and exercise. Thank you for all the answers so far, by the way :)
