Not for me. I haven't lost any weight in 6 weeks despite being at a calorie deficit. I should be at my goal by now, but I am still 10 pounds away.

Me too. Unless you left out a whole chocolate cake in there somewhere, you definitely are not eating enough calories.

Stomach.Ugh. I have a c-section tire. Under my fat roll. Yuck:(

Eat a little less, move a little more. If your BMR is 1520, you should at least be eating that since it is the amount your body uses on a daily basis without adding in exercise. If you would post your age, height and weight, that would be helpful in giving you advice. Also, you might lose 5 pounds the first week but it…

I love Bill Hader. This gif is the only good thing that will come out of this thread...

I would wait a week until after it is over. I got my period last Saturday, it was over by Thursday and today my weight is finally back down to normal from the 6 pounds of water I put on.

Yep! I eat whatever I want as long as it fits my calories and reasonably with my fats and carbs :)

Monday and Wednesday-60 minutes Zumba,30 minutes elliptical Tuesday and Thursday - 50 minutes strength training, 40 minutes Zumba Friday - rest day (walking for 30 minutes usually) Saturday and Sunday - 60 minutes Zumba, 30-60 minutes walking I like to work out :)

You are going to walk so much that unless you go crazy and eat everything in sight, you will be fine.Stay hydrated and don't weigh for a week to let the sodium get flushed out. Have fun on your trip! I love Disney and am going in July. I can't wait! Also, if you want to scope out the menu choices beforehand www.allears.net…

5-7 pounds. Before I started really watching what I ate and working out, it was only about 2. Not sure what the deal with that is but I just shrug it off and my weight goes back down eventually. :)

Definitely inches. Last week, I put on a pair of pants from 5 years ago and they fit. When I wore them before, I weighed 15 pounds less than what I do now. Skinny fat. SMH.

I do have an eating disorder, bulimia. Using MFP does not really affect anything other than the manifestation of it though. Before I started using MFP, I would throw up to get rid of the cals. Now if I have a binge, I use excessive amounts of exercise to counteract the calorie intake. I figure that it is something I will…

There are some GI symptoms with Metformin, like gas and diarrhea when you first start taking it. This can be decreased with the XR (extended release) version and being started on a lower dose and increasing it over time. I was previously on Metformin for my PCOS with insulin resistance but since I have started eating…

1st time posting a pic, hope I did it right! 187 pounds after I had my son. It didn't bother me at the time, but when he turned 2 I looked through a bunch of pictures and saw this one. Ugh.

I'm 160 right now, size 10. I have big boobs and a large frame so I'm just looking to get down to 145 with some muscles ;)

3123 on Friday. I finally broke and had a binge. I felt terrible so sick. It caused me to have a breakthrough though. I realize now that it is because I have not been eating enough for someone who works out 2 hours a day, 6 days a week. I eating below my BMR plus all that exercise way a recipe for disaster. Before I joined…

Monday and Wednesday - 60 minutes Zumba, 30 minutes elliptical, 30 min walk Tuesday and Thursday - 60 minutes strength training, 35 minutes Zumba, 30 min walk Friday - 60 minutes Zumba or kickboxing, 30 minutes elliptical, 30 min walk Saturday - 120 minutes Zumba, 30 - 60 minute walk Sunday - 30 - 60 minute walk, 30…

Sorry, I didn't realize this. Thanks :)

If her TDEE is 2336, then eating 2300 a day will not help her lose weight if she is not exercising. Those would be her maintenance calories.

Ouch. Thanks for saying that was the worst advice of the day when I am fairly certain that there are other posters that are deliberately posting bad advice, where as I (unfortunately) did not look closely at her BMR, I was just using her TDEE. I guess that is what I get for trying to help. However, I just think that at her…

Just out of curiosity, why do you say that?

I'm broad. I knew that already. I have shoulders like a linebacker. My broad frame coupled with my DDD boobs make my goal weight higher than most people for my height probably. Oh, well. I'm going by body fat anyway.

TDEE - 20%. 1869 calories per day. Don't eat back your exercise calories. HTH!

Umm...no. Well, maybe #6 but other than that...no.

Your BMI is only 25.0 and "normal" (whatever that is!) is 24.9. You are barely overweight. Have you looked at the side effects of the Adipex? My brother's girlfriend took it for 2 months last year and then had a TIA(mini-stroke). She was 23 years old at the time. Seriously, it is not a good medication, especially for…

I wish! haha
