  • how long is your plateau been? I have lost 50 lbs in 5months and my weight loss has been pretty consistent. I am assuming you are starting to lift so that is probably looking as though you are not losing cause obvisouly the muscle weighs more than fat rule starts to apply. I having been losing 10lbs a month. But the last 2…

  • I joined MFP because i had trouble controlling my weight. So I am not going to come on here and become the expert on nutrition all of a sudden, when i can't control my waist line. MFP recommends not losing more than 2LBs a week so i am going to leave it up to the experts and take that advice. And when i workout MFP adds…

  • i have the same problem eating breakfast because i am alway running late to work. So i bought those Fiber One breakfast bars and put the box on my desk and put my keys in the fiber box. So when i grab my keys i grab a bar. I never forget one now.

  • For me i just can't eat right to lose weight, i have to work out as well. Because if i am not working out and just eating right then 1 bad day of eating can tend to compound into multiple days of bad eating. When I was eating like a slop i was probably eating 1200 calories PER meal breakfast/lunch/and dinner so it was an…

  • yup, hate to admit, but i don't like mustard, mayo, ketchup, veggies, italian and seafood. on the bright side i can eat the same thing over and over again without getting tired of it, so eating chicken breast every single day is awesome for my diet.

  • i have gotten into a habit of weighing myself everyday. I don't feel so bad doing it because i am not cheating. And when i do cheat my caloires i go over like 200 not 1000, so i am not dreading stepping on the scale.

  • just eat back the calories you burned(if you are under your calorie goal), if you don't then it is unsafe.

  • yup trust the machine. The website doesn't consider resistance or you slowing down or speeding up or incline.

  • i was told if you can burn 500 calories in 20 minutes or 500 calories in 2 hours, its the same thing, calories are calories so if you feel like busting your butt that day and burn them quick then do it...

  • God forbid life can't exist without alcohol. I would say stop drinking for 2 months and see if the weight immediate flys off. Then work the alochol back into your life, if the weight rises back up, then you have found your weight problem.

    in Can i just look at Calories instead of the carbs/fat/prot Comment by texasguy January 2011
  • I have just been counting calories and calories only not worrying to much about bread vs meat and the weight is flying off. I would try the low carb diet but i know long term i can't keep that up, so i am not going to kill myself staying away from bread.

  • Of course it can be done, but Unless you have excellent self control with staying right at your calorie count it could be tough. When you are eating right and excersing one motivates the other as you begin to lose weight. If you are not excercising all it takes is one bad weekend before one bad weekend leads to an entire…

  • Your body has great muscle memory, so it could be your body is starting to get use to the excercises, were you feeling sore before and just not feeling it now? Are you doing the same excercises in the exact same order as before? if so try reversing your workout? Do the stuff you hate doing first and the stuff you love…
