This is why women's sizes should go off of the circumference of the waist or hips, like men's pants do. 5'3" pear shaped 10 years ago: 112 lbs, size 6 jeans, almost no muscle tone 1 year ago: 155 lbs, size 15 jeans, very little muscle tone Now: 130 lbs, size 7 jeans, decent amount of muscle tone. What might be more useful…

Oops typo. I meant logging.

I log daily since I started taking this seriously in January last year. Only break I've taken from loving was during my honeymoon last summer.

Great choice, Lynetta! I'm thinking of doing the same thing. My fiance has apprehended me and told me that I should trust my knowledge of what to do to be healthy. I'm a math person, so I'd love it if the more calories you burn was directly proportional to your weight, but weight has many more factors than that. All we…

The responses above say most everything I would. Also, if water weight bugs you that much, buy a scale that has metal probes on it; those scales can sense your fat %, water %, and bone %. Then in excel, multiply your weight and the fat % to get the weight of all the fat in your body, and do the same for your water % and…

Thanks for the great ideas!

I'm 5'2"ish and I'll be happy to get down to 125, though I'll probably be thinking I could lose more once I get there. Honestly, there is a healthy range for a reason. Your frame size matters, but also your muscle mass matters as well. Muscle weighs more than fat, but muscle is more compact than fat. Imagine two girls,…

An easy way to get ideas is to friend someone who's losing weight by eating healthy. Every day when they complete their diary, there is the option to view their diary. You can see exactly what they ate and how they exercised today and all previous days (as long as their privacy settings let you see them). Try it out.…

It's seeming more and more likely that my trainer doesn't know what she's talking about. So muscle confusion is not losing effectiveness of exercise because you did your sets back to back? Wow, she emphasized that from day 1. I never even thought to question it. Thank you very much for the education and advice! Hopefully…

She has me focusing on muscle groups each day like she should, but everything we do is a part of a circuit so I don't get muscle memory. We do probably 6 circuits that consist of two or three different exercises for each circuit. Each one leaves me shaking because I'm pushing myself, so it's hard to do them quickly. As far…

Hi, I've used this thing for years and my progress has been cyclical. I'm 24 and I'm from America. I weigh 153 lbs and I'd like to lose 28 lbs. Last year I went through a really rough time. Since then, I've been looking for ways to build my confidence and self-respect. Now I have a personal trainer, a meal plan, and lots…
