When weight training obviously the goal is to create micro tears in the muscle that get rebuilt during recovery. Your bodies natural defense to help muscles is water retention. If you begin a weight training regimen you will gain weight in the form of retained water. If you hydrate properly this will lessen over time as…

First thing in the morning after relieving myself and prior to any water or supplement intake. The daily fluctuation of the weight is no issue, lets me judge how my choices in both food, water and workout impacted. The one warning I have about this is when starting a new strength training regimen you will pack on water…

Its most likely water retention in your muscles. I had this issue over the past 2 weeks. Even made a couple of frustrated post in the forums. Just keep doing what you were doing before you started training. If you are truly tracking your intake vs. exercise honestly your body will get back on track. Looking at my reports I…

I completely agree. I hate being told its just muscle is heavier than fat. I'm eating at a deficit there is no way I'm putting on that much muscle.

I want to add to the list of find a good Chiropractor. I injured my right side/butt in a motorcycle accident and had lower back pain for about 2 years. I finally broke down at a friends advice and went to a reputable Chiropractor (didnt hurt he was very inexpensive as well!). He did some minor adjustments and prescribed…

I am worried about under-eating. I am a numbers and business intelligence guy, I hate looking at a 7 day upward trend.

My wife had the procedure done and didnt see much immediate change that she could attribute directly to the ablation beyond the side affects. Actually i think she lost weight while stressing the outcome.

I am in the same boat, different workouts but having the same issue. I have read some personal trainers will forbid the scale for about a month after starting a new workout. Maybe i need to take that advice.

I manage in an inbound call center, I do have the luxury of leaving my desk when I want however I get stuck in meetings or on a report and at my desk. Not sure if yours is multistory but I make it a point to walk past the nearest bathroom and go to the one downstairs to force myself on the stairs and get a little bit of an…

Fit bit is great for any step based activity. If you are really trying to better track your calorie burn you will need a Heart Rate Monitor. Preferably one that syncs with your pc and/or phone. I use the fitbit as a reminder and motivator to move more at work and around the house. When I do go running I have found that its…

I have the Fitbit One, I have thought about adding a HRM as well for workouts but the fitbit stays with me all day and I use the sleep tracking as well. Personally I am a data person, the more I have the more I know. I have not had any issues with it coming off and only had to reset the device once when I left it on top of…

You absolutely have to, your 1200 goal is Net Calories not calories taken in. I am 5'7 and started out at 196lbs. Taking a quick glance through my reports, on days that I am active and running I consume 1800+ calories those days.you have to be honest with yourself about 2 things, the true amount of calories you put in your…

The key is consistency and making the right choices. Megan hit the most important point. It is about changing your lifestyle. You can still diet, participate in programs throughout this. As you hit your weight goals you can start setting different goals for muscle mass or BMI, measurements etc. You also have to be really…
