It is strange but like I said, I'm hoping with enough weight loss it will lessen.

That makes me feel better. Thanks!

I was prescribed this too and I'm also hesitant to take it. Has anyone lost weight using it because it stopped their bingeing?

Yeah. I do realize our bodies aren't perfectly symmetrical but I seriously think the left side of my body has more fat. I'm hoping as my BF% goes down maybe the fat will disappear or at least even out. It's my ribs, my hips and my stomach...well that's what I've noticed anyway.

Yes! I think that's exactly true. The more processed, the more room for error. Companies are in business to make money. I log everything, and may have been called anal about it.

I guess between human error and inaccurate sources, calorie counting isn't as cut and dry as it seems.

Yes, I weigh everything I eat (and I'm losing) BUT I'm not sure it should always boil down to the calories in calories out philosophy.

You all look so great! Keep it up. :) I love coming here, such great motivation.

I'm in the same boat! I'd like to lose body fat without losing too much muscle. I am finding that last bit of weight difficult to get off.

It helps me so much so that when I lax even just on the exercise my doctor and husband can tell.

I'm not sure about that one but the Force and Aria (both by Fitbit) sync with MFP.

I do this if I've been restricting too much...either too few calories or less variety caused by cutting out too many food options (eg. carbs). I think it's usually a sign your body needs something.

I've been eating clean for about six weeks and yesterday my husband said to me "when did you get so thin?" as he caressed my waist and hips. It's nice when others notice, especially those who see you all of the time. :)

Lol! Thanks for the laugh. :)

Thanks for your answers. I'm keeping up with the protein (usually) and the fats, well I'm getting that from coconut oil and nuts. The sugar and calories from the fruit definitely doesn't make my body feel crappy like chocolate and other sweets.

Well now I can't wait for the fruit truck to get here!! Fortunately I am not diabetic so I guess that eliminates the concern there. Plus you are totally right, it's working for me now so why change it until I need too?

That's awesome! I love fruit but have always been concerned about the amount of carbs they provide. Thanks.

I'm starting today! How'd your first day go?

Nice!!! Keep it up. :)

Big difference! You look great and I'm sure feel great too. Well done!

Thanks! It's pretty amazing watching yourself go down in sizes. I actually don't hate shopping anymore.

Thanks. Shrinking sizes is awesome!!!

That's awesome!!! Way to go!

Way to go! Normal is great! I love trying on clothes now. Bring on the next size down!!!

You look awesome!!! There's a big difference. Well done!!!!

I'm just over 5'5". I started at 228 and have lost 96 pounds.

LOVE SKITTLES!!!!!! Well done everyone. :)

sway1080, did you calibrate the scale? If you didn't then it is possible to get different readings. It's easy, just step on the scale (I do it 6 times) in a row until the reading you get is consistent. Also, the scale is not meant to be moved. It will need to be re-calibrated after moving it. I think that's all there is to…

WOW! Congratulations!! You've done absolutely amazing and you look great. BE PROUD!

Congratulations! I too remember when that happened to me. My husband actually pointed it out! I think it really is all of these NSV (big and small) that keeps me going. They are reminders that we are succeeding. Don't give up girl, you got this!
