Thanks for the advice! I'm willing to try anything at this point! Well except for not eating!

Thanks! I hope it's all water weight! I'm going to try to ignore the scale for the next couple of weeks and see if there's been any improvement after I cut down my sodium intake.

Well my MFP defaults to 1200 calories, but people told me that was way less than what I needed to be eating. These last couple of days, I've been trying to eat around my TDEE target of 1661. But so far I don't see anything happening...

Well I have been doing some reading and while I try to get to the gym 4 times a week,I was told by one of the trainers that I didn't need to go more than that. should I try for 6 times a week?

Bueller? Bueller?

Alrighty, so I found out my TDEE is 2161 and my BMR is 1523. Does that mean I can eat 1523 calories but if I burn 430 at the gym I need to eat them back? Or does that mean I need to eat 1661 calories (2161-500) and not worry about eating the calories I burn? I'm terribly confused!

Athens, GA! Go Dawgs!

Lol! Thanks doll-face. Wanna add me as a friend so I can see how to get a rocking body like yours??

When I say firming, I mean getting that toned, firm, sleek look.

OH yeah, I did hear those things can have killer amounts of sodium. Other than limiting sodium intake is there a way to reduce amount of water I retain?

That's the part where I'm most ignorant I guess. I don't what the difference is between healthy fats and bad fats and what carbs are good and whatnot. I usually try to stick to a higher protein diet. But I don't really eat too many bad things except on my cheat days! And I've been giving up the fried foods and fast food as…

No, I didn't even know they had a rewards program. But I should also say that when I use the term lean cuisine, I mean any o of those frozen diet meals. I usually switch it up between the actual Lean Cuisine, Smart Ones, and Michelina's Lean Gourmet. I stay away from Healthy Choice, their stuff taste funny to me.

Thanks for the tips! I guess it just seemed counterintuitive to eat back the calories I spent all that time trying to burn of at the gym. I hope now I can get down to my goal weight, which is around 125 lbs. It's just been so disheartening to seed my weight stagnate after trying to do all I can.

The meal replacement shakes I have for breakfast are 240 calories. The lean cuisines I buy are always 300 calories or less and dinner is usually between 600-700 calories...plus I have low-cal snacks like fruit and pretzels throughout the day.
