Well, I use 35%/40%/25% carbs/protein/fat and 1500 calories. I am averaging 1400 calories daily, though and thats why 4 days a week working out for about 30 minutes (aerobics). I usually go over on carbs by about 20.

This helps. Thanks :)

Well, I didn't mean eat the exact food daily. I wasn't sure exactly how it was worded.

Sounds good. lol I will quit pressing that button. Thanks :)

1,260 calories per day according to mfp

My boobs hurt, too!!

Yeah, my Mom asked if I'm pregnant and I said that I'm on the pill and she said SO! lol But, I don't see how its possible. I am just going to wait and see if I have a period in about 15 days and go from there. Thanks for your response. :) I am sleeping constantly, btw. The doc told me that it'll take 3-4 months of the…

So, 1500 calories PLUS the workout calories? I already have trouble eating the 1500!! Geez, this losing weight stuff is tough. Thanks! :)

I know I won't start gaining AS SOON AS I START working out. I know its the pill now that I've thought about it and read others posts. Also, I read online that when you start working out, you start retaining water easier when muscle gain? Maybe the muscles are holding onto nutrients I'm taking in?

I don't think I've gained 10 lbs in muscle in a month. I haven't been working out for a month. Only a little over a week. I am sure its the pills and double period thing I had. I forgot that the pill makes you gain and the 10 lbs happened over a months time. So, it has to be the pill. I am okay now. I freaked for a second.…

#1 I am not pregnant! Lol I am on birth control and also use condoms. So, that's most likely not it. I'm not even worried about one. I am assuming its the pills and the double period. I knew when I started taking them that I'd gain but I've been on them for 2 months and forgot about that. I just happened out of nowhere it…

TMI-But, I did start taking birth control 2 months ago. This past month I had TWO, COUNT EM TWO periods. UGH! The past week I stopped my period and the past 4 ish days I have been sleeping more, headaches, bloating and gaining. I thought that crap happened BEFORE a period?! Maybe, the pills are making me gain, also? :(

I have been told this before. I forgot about this. Thanks.

I was weighing every morning but have stopped. I am doing it 1 time a month now. I have been gaining for about a month. I do measure calories. I have scales and measuring cups I use. I do not eat back my calories that I earn. I don't measure myself with measuring tape, which I need to do I suppose.

I'm in the same boat. Unfortunately, bread is one of my favorite things to eat. Carbs actually. I love chips and bread and potatoes and rice the most. And, pasta. So, yeah, this tough but I'm trying to lose 54 lbs. I have lost about 40 in the past 2 years and want this last 50 GONE!

I am also a very picky eater! :( lol
