I tried eating the exercise calories back and it didnt work for me. I stagger calories...Mon=1200, tuesday=1500 wednesday i usually have a low calorie day=800-1000 and thrusday=1200, friday=1500....you get my drift. wednesday is my only low calorie day. THIS is what works for ME. I think you have to do what YOUR body…

What is that sitting on the wall with its hands over its eyes???

I had this same problem and come to find out not only were the bananas high in sugar but apparently when you eat them often they cause major constipation!

Open up your diary and let us see whats going on. You need to be eating enuff calories to fuel your system ;)

Ive had great results with the EA Sports Active

Rocco Dispirto has a KILLER ranch dressing in his "Now Eat This" cookbook

I have wondered this also...bought the Polar ft7 heart rate monitor and going to start using that and finding something with similar calorie burn count to add it on MFP

Which Polar do you have?

Will you post a link to the site...I cant find it

This will be my first experience with a heart rate monitor so Im not looking to invest a HUGE chunk until I see that its something I will definitely use! So it doest have to be the most popular or the newest on the market by any means

Is this the right one? This is the only NewBalance N4 I can find but it says watch that includes chest strap http://cgi.ebay.com/NBnew-balance-N4-Heart-Rate-Monitor-WOMEN-WHITE-/320679888692?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4aaa02c734

Do you wear the chest strap all day? I just now realized that the arm bands are intended for ALL time wear!

Is that the watch style? Was thinking maybe the arm band one would work well for me...but since Im new to using one period then Im up for trying one at all thats in my budget

Thank you dlaplume2....I was just feeling like I was doing something wrong but what you say makes sense. I actually JUST started to incorporate the weights yesterday so maybe I will start to see some results from that ;) Thanks for your advice....makes alot of sense. I count EVERYTHING that goes in my mouth...if I cant…

You guys are going to bash me when I tell you this Im sure...as there are many on here who have much more weight to lose without being bothered by myself. My current weight is 141 lbs - 5ft tall - 32yrs old - and Im pretty active. I wear a size 14 jeans and even tho this doesnt SOUND that bad...I LOOK fat. My bmi is…

When I STARTED this I set my activity level to low...I exercise CONSTANTLY now...at least 5 days a week if not everyday. Should I go back and change it?

No I dont eat my exercise calories! I MAY allow myself around 50 of them from time to time but for the most part i DO NOT eat them. I tried that method for a month and GAINED weight...which makes sense...there was NO calorie deficit! When I say "stay under my calorie goal"...I either hit right under it by 10-15 calories or…

I wondered the SAME thing so I DID eat back the calories from exercise for 2 weeks...with absolutely NO results! So I decided to try the opposite and eat ONLY my 1200 and sometimes i may go over 10-50 calories into my exercise calories but then some days Im also short 10-100 calories of my 1200 caloric goal...bottom line,…

Im not sure about the calories because obviously thats a weakness...but for me I kept setting goals on my exercise and meeting them...so then I would set a new goal and meet that one as well. Although it may not neccessarly be ROUTINE...I am certainly ADDICTED to my calorie burn and the idea of burning thru my goals as…

http://www.webmd.com/fitness-exercise/features/truth-about-toning-shoes My mother in law and I wear same size and I wore hers for a few days and really thought about getting a pair so I started to research them. I didnt waste my money after doing some digging and finding NO reports of any actual improvement. My mother in…

Thank you SOOO much for ALL your responses! Just one more reason I love this site and program. I was actually feeling kinda let down that I wasnt able to get my regular exercise in but just reading all the support in your answers really gave me that boost and even helped me to really stick to my caloric limits and stay on…

Try the Walks... Walk Away the Pounds - 1 Mile Walk Away the Pounds - 2 Mile Walk Away the Pounds - 3 Mile all these are awesome!

Unless you are preparing for WeightLoss Surgery...there is NO reason at all for you to be eating only 800cal. Not even a DR would go for this

Go to Food Network and look on the Chopped Allstars show...they made several recipes with it the other night!

S.O.S. please someone help me....its not healthy for me to feel this waaay! ~Rihanna TOTALLY had a horrid day yesterday :( so I thought this song was pretty appropriate when it came on! LOL Ive been logging for 25days and down 3lbs and this was my first mishap. On my cycle, the weather sucks....cold clammy and gloomy and…

Just another note...what surface are you placing the scales on? carpet would cause this also due to the padding giving and taking. Needs to be a hard solid surface such as the kitchen or bathroom tile, vinyl etc

If they are electronic then I would suggest new batterys and then if its still giving mixed numbers Id do as suggested and get new ones that will work accurately

Are you getting enuff carbs?

Ive wandered the SAME thing...cause most of it is thrown away!

I was wondering that exact same thing! Im interested but would like to see more reviews first
