me too!!!! Its sucks.

I am...but I stopped eating my exercise calories because I kept maintaining. This is a short fix before my body goes into starvation mode. AND I hope I'm not messing up my metabolism. I know MFP is not giving me the correct calories to eat. I workout 5 days a week. I do pilates, spin, and weight training. When I was eating…

I was eating bacl my cals and not loosing (I exercise tons) I got out of my plateu by eat 1,200 cals a day no matter what. So I guess I created a deficit and now I'm loosing again. Am I harming my metabolism? I'm happy loosing I just dont know when my body is gonna stop loosing again now that I'm eating so few amount of…

Its sad to have to weigh and count every single thing but for many of us its reality. And as you get older and your metabolism slows down you have to change things. Its annoying but nesessary

Wow. The only reason I'm responding is because I take alot of Medication. I can't begin to say I understand. But my hospitilazations and medication have caused me to gain my weight. I know how discouraging that part can be. The good thing is you posted this message and I know there will be tons of people to support you.…

Dont feel ashamed. You are brave enough to post it here which means you are ready to face it. Some people say start over tomorrow. I say start over the next meal. Eat a salad for dinner or if thats not an option a high protien low carb low sugar dinner You can do this You will feel so empowered. Then when you can get back…

I think its something about the oxygen but I think your body should adjust

I've heard eating monounsaturated fats can help reduce the fat in you belly

You look great! That was fast...

I weigh myself eveyday. And my emotions are set by the scale too. Its bad. But I also find it keeps me accountable. I think about stepping on the scale in the morning. Stops me from cheating. So its not all bad.

Great JOB!!!! What an inspiration

Usually the more sugar you have the more you crave. I would suggest cutting the sugar and replacing it with high protien snacks like nuts. Also limit your grains to complex ones.

you can add me....

Thank you for asking cause I exercise and still have to eat 1200 cals just to loose.

Awesome...you give me hope. I started out almost the same weight as you. My current GW is 150 but honestly I'm affraid to set the number any lower cause I'm not sure I can do it. I mean you look GREAT. Really skinny. Great Job

We'll you definetly have to change something. I was eating all my calories that I earned from working out. I was not loosing then I stopped eating those calories and now I'm loosing. Maybe you are the opposite. Are you eating your workout calories. There also something called zig zagging. You gotta keep your body guessing…

great job. celebrate and keep it up

Smaller meals but definetly protien. Almonds (not too many) and all nuts,egg,low fat cheeses,milk,yogurt, meat,beans...I try and incorporate protien into every meal. This will really help with the hunger. I am rarely ever hungry.

I go to the gym 5 days a week too. and I exercise about 1.5 hrs. I think that is the problem. They say your suppose to eat those cals back but I wasnt sure about eating that many extra cals. Anyway I was stuck for 1 month. I decided this week to stop eating my exercise cals. GASP! I know I was negative calories but you…

I understand your pain...after loosing 30 lbs someone asked me, while on a date with my husband, did I have a baby in my tummy!!!! I've only had 2 kids and my daughter is 1 year. I had been feeling so good about myself and that really brought me down. Hugs to you....

I am bipolar and for 11 years have been in and out of hospitals. I put on 80 lbs. I also had 2 children but my weight gain wasn't from that.For 10 years I had only had meds for mania. After my second child I got depressed and they put me on an antidepressant on top of my mood stabilizers. So now I'm taking all of that…

About a month still figuring things out

I have the SAME problem...For the last few weeks I started LOADING up on veggies and protien 1st and eating slowly. My family has dips, cakes, and carbs galore on the weekend. Usually when it comes time to eat the sweets and junk I am truely satisfied with what I've eaten. Plus my body is used to eating healty. I'm not…

Im shooting for overweight myself!

Yea I dont usually log my water but I do get about 6 glasses a day. I know thats is SO not enough. I gotta work on it

I was eating 1400- 1600 per day and I was stuck for 3 weeks but now I reduced it to 1200 and I'm loosing

interesting

I hate my scale too. But my circumstances are different. I say buy a tape measure. I hate my tape measure too :)

I mainly do strength traing classes with lunges, dumbells and lots of push ups. Usually 1 hr 2 to 3 times a week

Welcome! I'm new too...there seems to be tons of areas to look into. Have fun
