Your goal weight ____ x 10 = ____ + 300/400 = __________ (Ex: 110 x 10 = 1100 + 300/400 = 1400/1500 calories a day) Your protein intake: Overall calories _____ x .40 = _____ (Ex: 1400/1500 x .40 = 560/600 protein calories a day) Protein calories _____ \ 5 or 6 (# of meals) = ________ (Ex: 560/600 \ 5 = 112/120 calories of…

I don't know if it was the medication but as soon as I started taking Zoloft, I gained weight quickly but it also could have been before I started taking it I had so much anxiety I couldn't eat or I was never hungry.

I measured myself this morning before I went to the gym. I am usually under my calorie goal every day but I also have been working out almost everyday! I bought lots of fruits and veggie today so that I can get all of my calories in. Also, i eat a ton of protein everyday! I have been eating a lot of black bean burgers and…

2 down 48 to go!!

Thanks!!

I had someone send me a message and she told me how to calculate my BMR and I was 500 calories off from what MFP calculated for me! Does anyone think 1800 calories a day is too high for me?

When I was doing WW, I got down to 199 and started school and stopped eating like I should and I shot back to 210 quickly! But I was able to stay at 210 for a while and then realized how much I had gained back and just didn't take care of my self like I should have... But you do have a good point!

I changed my goals and it increased my calories to 1490. Does that sound about right? This is the first time i have counted calories so I kinda feel like I'm a bit over my head!

I am right there with you!!!! This is so frustrating and in the end I just get upset or mad!

Thank you!! I really need to stick to it this time around!

I am definitely going to have to work on that! Thanks for all the advice! Its so hard for me to think in months when I have a trip to Mexico in 36 days and I don't want to be uncomfortable in a swim suit!

I actually have a set of measuring cups and spoons just for measuring my food and I also have a food scale! Something weight watchers beat into my head!

I've actually just had my thyroide checked! Everything is normal!

My goal is to lose 2 lbs a week. I take my daughter to daycare at 8 am every day and head to the gym and i am usually there for about an hour and a half depending on how bad my foot is hurting. (My right foot is fractured near the pinky toe)

Kcals?

I changed my goals and it changed my calorie goal for the day to 1490. I have noticed that I have been measuring my food I get full faster. Should I be having lots of small meals? I feel like I am in over my head. I was on weight watchers for 8 months (jan-aug) last year and lost 34 pounds and I gained 20 of it back.

My mom has been "clean eating" so I have just changed my grocery buying habits and I have buying more real foods so hopefully this will help me! I would love to get to the gym 5 days a week but I am a full time student and I am a stay at home mom. I just had to start paying a daycare so I can get into the gym. This is all…

I actually spoke to a personal trainer at the gym yesterday and I am going to meet with her on Friday. I have been doing cardio (treadmill, elliptical, bike) and I started weights yesterday. I also have been walking in the evenings and I have done a week of insanity and I just get really upset when I don't see any change!…

I also want to add that I feel like I am retaining an unreal amount of water. I drink about 80 oz a day and still feel like I am carrying around all 80 ounces every day all day!

I am 5'10 223.6 24 years old and Not sure on the BMI! My calorie goal set by MFP is 1310 I believe.

I'm in!! Maybe this will reflect on the scale!

I haven't measured myself but my clothes are still fitting the same and I don't notice any changes. :(
