You are SO right! Pictures don't lie! ... I'm not sure about my scale, maybe is broken at 159? Hahahaha! I wish :) Thank you so much!

Yes, I have a nutrition minor and I know that you need to eat your exercise calories back if you are doing 1200 (for a woman) calories a day. The 1200 calories are necessary for basic body functions like hair growth, skin replacement, nail growth, etc.. You risk losing more muscle if you don't fuel your body properly. I…

Can I just tell you all that you are my best friends forever??!!! My current weight is 159lbs :( Only 6lbs down. After a lot of hard work and discipline I was feeling sad to see the numbers on the scale, so even thought I knew there wouldn't be a huge difference I decided to snap a picture anyway.. just to compare. Oh boy!…

Thank you so much! This was such a helpful explanation. I have been reading quite a lot about it but it wasn't until I read your post that I finally got it. I think I love you. HA!

There is really very little weight loss attributed to workouts, you will see workout results in regards of toning, etc. Cardio helps your metabolism and a lot of people seem to feel pleased with the results from cardio, but most of your weight loss will be coming from your diet. As someone in this forum said: "You lose…

I'm 5'1 1/2 and just started 25 days ago. SW: 165lbs CW: 160.4lbs GW: 120lbs 120 sounds about right but once I get there I may re-evaluate. I am doing circuit training with a trainer and eating around 1400 calories on a high protein diet (due to hypoglycemia- helps me keep my sugar levels even) Add me if you want :)

Way to go! I'm happy to hear that you were able to manage your cholesterol through diet. My husband was just diagnosed with high cholesterol and is also on a healthy diet, hopefully we'll see the same results as you, so he doesn't have to go on medication. Congratulations!

I hate burpees with passion! They hurt so bad they should be illegal!

Well, I always said that when I was done having kids I was going to get in the best shape of my life. My youngest son was born back in April of 2010 and here I was almost 2 years later still the same. I found a picture in pinterest that said: " Yesterday you said tomorrow" ... what a simple phrase, but it really got to me.…

I considered my self in a low carb diet and I ate 109 yesterday. I try to stay around 100g every day. I don't count "net" carbs so maybe my number is lower since I try to eat high in fiber carbohydrates (vegetables) :)

Hi all! Age: 31 SW: (heaviest I've been) 165 CW: 163.2 GW: 120 I have MFP to 1270 calories a day but sometimes I go over because I'm doing a high protein diet. I'm hypoglycemic (it's in my genes) and hypothyroid so a low carb diet helps me to better manage my glucose levels. I have only been doing this for the last 3 weeks…

I want to try this out too! I'm also in for the long run since I need to lose 40lbs. I have a personal trainer and I was just talking to her about eating exercise calories back and she said that if I am eating about 1300-1500 calories that I shouldn't eat my exercise calories back. She did advise thought to up my protein…
