Everythings changed - need help with numbers
Previously I was working out quite a lot - running, a little weight lifting, circuit training and bodyweight training. My cals got up to 2400 and I was bouncing around with the same few pounds, losing, gaining, losing....ANYWAY, after a fall at the gym about a month ago, I badly bruised the base of my back. Initially it…

Proof that the scales lie!
Sorry to the repeat post for people on my friend list but this is way to good not to share. In January I had body stat analysis done at the gym, started following EM2LW and became a regular at the gym/running club again. My weight on the scales has fluctuated a few pounds up and a few pounds down but today it was exactly…

Gaining and Losing the same few pounds
I just want clarification that I'm doing this right. For the past few weeks I keep losing a pound or 2 and then gaining it back. I was eating 2168, changed to 2200 and now am 2400. Should I stick at 2400? The scales are up again today by 2lb but I'm convinced they'll come down again, then go back up again! Is that telling…

How do I know whether to increase calories even more?
For the last week, maybe 2, I have eaten at what I think is TDEE-10% which is 2168 cals. Some days I am over but really try not to eat below. I am seeing a very very slight drop in weight at that level, I feel great and am finding my appetite is increasing A LOT!! It's great eating at this level but I am just a little bit…

Trusting the System & Patience
I just wanted to put it out there how I've found the last few weeks since Eating More to Lose Weight! My weight has always yo-yo'd, ranging from about 9 stone up to about 13 at my heaviest. Last year I lost a lot of weight without really trying but I was in a terrible relationship, I was stressed, unhappy and had no…

Not hungry
Hi, I've just upped my calories again to 2168 which is TDEE-10%. It's only day 2, but I feel stuffed all the time! It's great in that I'm not hungry at all, but is it right to eat that much if I'm so full? I'm guessing as my body gets used to it I'll start to feel hunger soon and wonder how I managed before....am I right?

Am I doing it right?
Just want to check I've got my numbers right! Last year I lost a load of weight but it was due to stress, lack of appetite and wasn't exercising at all and I'd started smoking again!!! October last year I stopped smoking, started eating again (anything that wasn't nailed down to be precice) and gained about 20lb in a…

I'm Back!!
Hi I used to be on MFP and made some great friends. I left. I stopped running and working out. I ate bad. I put weight on. I lost weight. I put weight on. Here I am again....hoping to find old friends and make new ones too. There really is no secret, eat less, move more....that's what I'm here for :smiley:
