  • I have that scale and it kept giving me different numbers as well! So I ended up contacting them, and they mentioned stepping on it then stepping. Back off it should show 0.00 that means it's calibrated and it should be more consistent. I ended up seeing multiple readings after a few seconds still, so I ended up contacting…
  • I love Taco Bell! I just had some today, and I had a piece of cake as well and some cookies. I just work what I eat into my calories for the day. I worked out for an hour as well, and ate back half of my calories as well. Just because I want to lose weight doesn't mean I can't eat what I enjoy I just eat less of it.…
  • A few days won't hurt your chances of losing weight sorry you were sick. However, keep going and lose the weight for your health reasons. We all have those days where we don't stay within our caloric intake and it's okay. Learn from it and move on keep going. You can do it! I noticed veggies don't have that much calories,…
  • I used to drink soda a lot and really sugary drinks, and I decided to replace it with water. I reduced hundreds of calories daily from my soda addiction. I do think it's helping me with my weight loss and plus I am being more hydrated. Before I used to think I was hungry a lot, and now I drink 500ml of water if I feel…
  • And that's probably why you have an eating disorder it's not healthy I hope you got the help you need. Op eating under 600 calories is not good for you. As others mentioned if under a doctors supervision some people have been informed to eat around 800 calories, but that's the extreme route the doctor choose for them. I…
  • I wouldn't put anything that I bought off eBay into my mouth. I second on the waste of money I have lost almost 13 pounds watching my calories and eating at a deficit, and working out as well. Advocare and other products like that will be temporary once you lose the weight the weight almost always comes back on. It doesn't…
  • I wear spandex boy shorts that cover my thighs no chaffing. I bought it on amazon a while ago was an awesome purchase.
  • Okay... Best of luck to you!
  • I also have a Fitbit I want to add the 2100 calorie burns is for the whole day we burn calories as we sit, and even sleep so Fitbit takes that into consideration. I mostly just track the walking and excercise and eat back half of my calories I have lost 12 pounds so far.
  • Looks like you lost 2 pounds great job! Since you have less than 5 pounds to lose and you are already working out. I have been reading some threads where people started to increase their calorie eaten eating back 30-50% of their calories back might be helpful for you as well. I would take my time on the 5 pounds and…
  • I don't know what to believe now :confused:
  • I was kinda nervous about opening this thread with the subject line being " Mary". And to answer your question I don't, but if I do any strength training I just log it as that.

  • You should see a doctor and ask about why you feel the need to eat all day. I eat about 1200-1500 for the whole day.
  • Why yes it certainly is!
  • It doesn't look like its synced I had my IPhone listed as the default before I started using my Fitbit. Check to see if the Apple Watch can synchronize with MFP.
  • Great post! Total agreement.
  • I took a before picture just so I can track progress and change. It really helps me have a visual proof of the changes. I took some a few weeks ago, and I can tell I am already stronger!
  • Why worry? I do weigh myself every morning just to see the patterns and trends on my weight. If I ended up consuming too much sodium the night before when I get on the scale and see that .4 increase I know the reason why. Weighing myself keeps me accountable, and I like to see the changes showing up on the scale. However,…
  • Hello, stay patient you are losing weight just give it more time and you will see it continue. None of us got to our current weight in 3 weeks, so keep doing what you're doing . However, since you're also working out consider eating back some of your exercise calories. I noticed that helped me lose weight just knowing I…
  • I agree with the others about the verbiage I would be hesitant about taking advice. Consider getting a second opinion from a healthcare professional, and call your insurance company to ask for a name.
  • That's great ! Congrats I love the idea of sharing little victories!! I ended up buying a top just to realize it didn't fit well was feeling kinda tight. I put it away in my closet, and recently took it out since I have been losing weight. It fits perfectly! Little things are a great stepping stone into achieving the…
  • I like to eat snacks in between meals like nuts, mandarin oranges, banana , and thus really helps me. I also drink a lot of water, and I noticed sometimes when I think I am hungry I am actually just thirsty!
  • Save your money as others suggested. The best way to lose weight is watching your CICO( calories in calories out). In order to lose weight you need a deficit. The best thing about my fitness pal if you input your stats in the goal section. It would automatically calculate for deficit for you before you even work out.
  • It's probably temporarily the weight gain I would say it's the sodium you probably ate during the cheat day. I still count calories on the days I eat out because it's good to know the numbers for what you're eating. I had some Chinese yesterday and wrote the calories down. It had a lot of sodium, so I wasn't surprised…
  • Hello, I think the forums are really helpful especially the getting started option. Do you have a good scale? Weighing your food will give you a better idea so you can input it into myfitnesspal for more accuracy, and so you can enter your calorie amout. I have been on this site on and half for a few years, and I haven't…
  • 1. As others mentioned you don't have to eat chicken and broccoli everyday change things up. 2. It's okay to eat out, but you don't have too if you don't want. Maybe schedule days to eat out and not going out some days. Find a plan with your girlfriend so both of your voices can be heard. 3. As others mentioned you don't…
  • My go to foods are Clementines one small orange is roughly 30 calories, and I always got a jar of peanuts. Hummus is always an essential to have around as well.
  • Hi, it can be difficult not seeing the weight coming off. If you just started sometimes it takes a few weeks. How many calories are you eating? Are you weighing your food?
