Well, it all depends on you! What you planning on eating from here on out? If it wass me, I'd go for the goal before I would change my diet. THEN increase your diet. It's going to take you a little tweaking to get the caloric intake properly so you don't gain a lot of weight back. Remeber a lot of people gain their weight…

God, MFP needs a "LIKE" button because I would hit it on TCHRISTINE24's last remark. "Are you like sleep eating!" That's just a great comment! Getting up in the middle of the night, unless you really are sleep eating(Doubtful!) you control getting up and indulging in late night munchies! That's the part of dieting YOU…

Oh the scale is the enemy!

No, it's not because your building muscle. It takes a lot longer than that to build muscle. You're not eating enough protein and calories to build muscle. MY guess is that you aren't eating enough calories. If you are eating enough, you might not be eating the right things? Open up your diary so people can see what your…

Hi Briony, Nice name by the way, I've never heard it before and NO that's not a pick up line! Welcome to MFP(As it's lovingly called by fellow members), Why is your title to the introduction letter "First timer scared S***less"? I got the "First timer" part, but why the rest? Nothing to be scared about! Dieting is the…

You would really have to try to gain weight from weight trainning, and you wouldn't notice it in a week. It would take a month or so, to even notice a very slight change., Then you would have to be pounding protein with the sole purpose of gaining weight from muscles. Keep with the weight training, it's good for you and…

I know I'm late to the party here, BUT I do the eat an hour before I do some cardio all the time. You have an hour or less befroe you run, all you've had is a cup of coffee. I do this vertually every morning. You don't have time for a complex Carbohydrates, you need a simple Carbohydrates Complex Carbohydrates Fiber and…

You didn't see "Band of brothers" when the sargent made them eat pasta and run did you? She'll lose it alright, and not the way she wants to. Pasta takes at least 90 minutes to digest after you eat it. She's was going to run in less than an hour? Eat an orange, of a banana. It'll digest quickly, and some GOOD sugar for…

Wow, I checked out your diet diary. I might hold it right there? you're at 942, take it to 1300 and call it a day. I'm sure your hungry, a can of tuna or a chicken breast. You've been eating A corn dog? Pringles wheat whatevers? McDonalds? There is a reason they call it "junk food:…

Congratulations! Those are called milestones, and they come in all shapes and sizes to. Some of the best milestones aren’t even things you would of ever thought of. Those are bonus milestones, keep sharing. I can hardly wait for my hidden milestones!

Waterfallus, Hmm, You know I agree with Bizco, I’m sorry you feel that way. But you did post it late, people usually get off here around midnight. Also it was not so appealing of a letter, sorry but being honest. People on this site are great and generally very friendly. But, they can only do so much to help you, support…

It's possible to lose weight in Vegas! (The right way) Buffets! Kill, the salad bar and fruit stations at the buffets. Drink plenty of water! And remember your on vacation, splurge a little it's not the end of the world as long as you eat sensible and don't over indulge.

Ok, You've said a lot in your post, but you've left out some information. 1.) You didn't say how many calories a day your consuming. 2.) You didn't say what you weight now and what your goal weight is? Your 4 Lbs away from your goal, and by the looks of your picture you're already lean. As long as this is somewhat a recent…

Hi there, Bring your own sandwich and EXTRA water. Years ago when I was in college, centuries ago I worked in a restaurant and they had strict rules about eating during our shift. I was in great shape back then, ran 2-5 miles every day, lifted weights everyday. Some of my fellow employee friends were competetive in biking,…

Measure your hands, ankles and neck. The extremities are the first place to lose fat. I just spread all my fingers out and look at the area on the outside of my hand behind my thumb and wrist. If I can see the two tendons that make a long V. I’m losing weight. Also the first place that fills up if your bloated or god…

Aladd2, When I was your age, I was a fat kid terribly out of shape. I changed my life and worked out like a fend and lost 95lbs. Taking me down to about 154 lbs. at 6 feet tall. WAY to thin. It was a road to get down to that weight. Then I worked out and got to 190-195 most of my adult life. My recomendation to you, is set…

Well, I'd use heat therapy (Hot bath as recomended above) and a lot of protein powder( only about 25 grams not soonrer than two hours apart that's all the body can consume and then bannans for the potassium.(Potassium helps in healing) along wiht vitamin C. I hate to say it though, some rest! NFL players would be doing…

katyncal , Ok, you just started a pretty big step, you started a new job. That's a pretty important part of your life. I've been there before, now you have to get control....you can do that. Get used to the ins and outs of your new job, get used to the daily grind. Get your "new" schudle down and get used to it, keeping in…

Hi chile_chicken, Congradulations on getting to your first goal! You really didn't think it was over did you? In the perfect world, what did you think was going to happen next? What ddid you expect? After working so hard fr so long, did you really think it was going to all be over? It's not, only the first part is, your…

Hi there! I wouldn't go below 1200 calories, it's just not good fro the body and dieting. On days I know I'm going to splurge I either sneak a workout in, or I certainly make sure I get a good workout in the next day and I don't over do the splurge. I know that scarfices are going to have to be made, so I just don't entice…

I agree with"Chevy88grl" It might be time to re-assess you're calories, your workout, whether or not you're eating back your exercise calories, etc Fat and muscle pretty much do weight the same, and running isn't known for building muscle. It's know for one of the best way of losing weight and making muscles lean. I would…

You don't need to do an ECA stack fr the last little bit. Because if you rely on it, as soon as you stop taking it, you'll gain it right back. Try some leg lifts.
