Oh, okay. Thanks!

WalkingAlong, okay, that makes sense that it adjusts weirdly the next day if it is a projection of what I can eat and not what I can actually eat. Thanks for giving me a thorough explanation and suggestions! And thanks to everybody else who responded, too!

My sugar is usually over what MFP says it should be, but I think that might be from the fruits I eat which are not supposed to be the "bad" kind of sugar. You can look at the Mayo Clinic's daily requirements page to see how much you should limit sugar and what percentage you can eat of added sugar.

I think you are more a vegetarian than vegan if you eat cheese and eggs. =) I am a vegetarian, too, and I eat seitan, eggs, cheese, nuts, bread, beans, lentils, protein shakes, etc. Also, the protein I get from fruit, cereal, almond milk, and things like that add up. Start keeping an eye out for foods "fortified" with…

I used to drink soda all the time and would get kind of anxious if I went somewhere like someone's house or to another country that didn't have it readily available. I drank it every day and nothing else, and I'm surprised I didn't screw up my kidneys. I started cutting down when I first began watching my calories. I…

Okay.... I should have known better than to ask about anything on an internet forum because the weirdos with poor reading comprehension crawl out from under their rocks and try to start arguments over nothing. Thanks to the few people who actually tried to help. I will seriously never understand people who feel they have…

Janei, not to be rude, but I've said multiple times that I don't need help gaining muscle. I need help losing fat. In other words, if you are going to respond, you might want to focus on cardio and diet advice because I'm covered when it comes to gaining muscle. That's an area I do NOT need help with. As for the weights I…

Springfield, I just saw your comment. What is cutting and bulking? I honestly haven't been paying that much attention to calories and macro-nutrients. I usually just try to not eat stuff that is overly processed, and eat more fruits and vegetables. If I do add up my calories, they're usually under 2,000, even on days I…

I work out different parts of my body, so I can't "bounce" from working my biceps to another bicep exercise because my muscles would be too tired. I do one set of 15-20 reps (I have read that is a good amount of reps) for most exercises, then after I've worked out my whole my body, I do it all over again. I usually have to…

Thanks for the information, everybody. I will look into the articles and programs. I just wanted to clarify a few things, though. I'm not worried about looking manly or bulky. I don't think that would even be possible for me because of my body type. I had just read other suggestions for people in my situation from previous…

I don't want to lose weight. I want to lose fat.

A few years ago, I ate 1,200 calories a day for months because some medication I was on had made me gain weight. I did lose all the weight and more... but I didn't exercise. I'm also a vegetarian, so I could probably eat more than a meat eater because the food I eat doesn't have a lot of calories most of the time. Now I AM…

Are you already a healthy weight? The number on the scale is healthy for me, but I wanted to tone up and get rid of flab. I thought it would be easy, and I'd see results in no time because I didn't have far to go, but nope. I read that if you are already a healthy weight, your body is going to resist losing weight and fat.…
