OMG I wish I had this problem! Every 5 pounds I lose I look down and wonder where my chest went! Dropped 2 sizes in 3 months and close to dropping another, it's crazy! Chest is mainly fat in women though so that's why I was always told it was the first thing to go.

I have lost 40 pounds doing Zumba! I need something I enjoy and that I crave and that I can't wait to do. Zumba is my drug! I have psoriatic arthritis and I still do it, classes are a blast! I have been to a few instructors over the last year but I have one favorite instructor who has a fitness background vs. the dance…

put a litter box upstairs too? Is she asleep when she's doing this or no?

I really want to make gingerbread houses with my god daughters this year. 4 year old twins and a five year old. Fun! :heart:

Are you weighing and measuring everything? You have measuring cups and spoons out and a food scale? Once I stopped eyeballing everything and started measuring it was way more reliable of a weight loss. I weigh 20 pounds more than you and aim for a pound a week.

Can you not use a cooler? All I got is PB&J under those circumstances if you can use a cooler or a thermos we could add to this...

Absolutely this. Stop calling it a diet and depriving yourself. If it fits your macros and your calorie allotment then eat! Sometimes just knowing I can have a cupcake whenever I want is enough for me to not eat a cupcake!

I do this too!!! I can never get the spritz gun to work right though! I do a triple chocolate chip that everyone loves it's the recipe for chocolate chip cookies doubled but then add a bag of semi sweet a bag of milk chocolate and a bag of dark chocolate doubled recipe triple the chocolate. Have you ever heard of the 'Boo'…

I sing to almost everything but for a song I really belt out it's Treat her like a lady - Jimmy Buffett! I even get shimmies going and some mini body rolls... Guy in the truck at the red light got a show the other day! LMBO! What can I say, I was raised up from a parakeet into a full fledged parrot head!

That is sad! :sad: :cry: I'd be so lost without mine!

It will replace what you enter into MFP as a calorie burn if your HRM is what you like to use for this during a workout. I wear mine along with my HRM when I work out. I get the steps counted from the work out and the calories burned from my HRM. You can also calibrate your fitbit on a track if you really want to.

I use my Wii Fit as a scale. I like it because it gives me a chart of how far I've come. I think as long as you use the same one and it's going down that's all that matters... Until you step on the one at the doctors office. Why are those always wrong? :grumble:

Thank you! I've been nervous about signing up this helps a lot.

one last attempt to bump this. Is there a Zumba section??

I think you just turned cookies into water!! :bigsmile:

I like that I can push myself even when I'm working out at home. Easy to push at the gym but at home where no one is watching is awful hard! =)

Love this!!

I weigh in every Thursday morning before my coffee. I stay as far away from the scale as possible the rest of the week!!

Your weight will fluctuate, that's normal. My ticker is the amount of weight I have lost since I started in June 2011. Between October and February of last year I had a few health scares and the holidays to contend with and gained 25 pounds. I have since lost all of that and then some but I'm not going to count it again.…

I thought vegetables had negative calories too. because you burn more calories chewing and digesting than they had. Yay! Negative calorie pizza!!!

:laugh: Why did I spend a year ignoring the forum and just logging food and exercise? You are all very fun!

375 actually

forty here = 149

YES! I don't know why they don't tell you!

^^ This. I exercise for dessert! Living should never be about deprivation!!!!!!!!! Moderation, good. Deprivation, bad.

Anyone? Did I post in the wrong place?

Excuse me, Mr. Manager, could we possibly get a chore wheel up in here? LOL This is crazy, I did this in retail but not when I worked in an office! Now I'm a nanny so I cook clean and do laundry in someone else's house and in my own. I would think you should bring it up come time for your next performance review!

I set my activity level to sedentary on here and fitbit fills in the blanks depending on how active I've been. Even on days where I've been sick and was a total slug fitbit added extra calories because I had burned more than MFP thought I would for the day. It takes some time to play around with it all, took me about 2…

It gets better, promise!
