I could make one of each of the 6 challenges. I was thinking of doing the following: * Weight challenge (both every month and every…

So I have this dress....
I bought this dress when I was a bit bigger than I am now. It was too big for me then, so I got it altered soon after. I bought it for Pokemon Symphonic Evolutions which is during the first weekend of February. The person who altered it for me is now overseas. I have lost a fair amount in the chest area and now risk…

Losing Inches, But Not Pounds
I have been as accurate as I can be without using a food scale for saying what I have eaten (I know that's problem number one, but I asked for one for Christmas, so I am going to have to wait at least until then to get one). I should have hypothetically lost something by now, but I haven't yet. I am trying to lose 1kg a…

TOM and Weight Loss
So.... I cam back to mfp in order to lose weight, but I am gaining weight from my time of the month. It's discouraging that I have been eating very little compared to what I was. I've also been eating a lot healthier, working out, and drinking lots of water. I just hoped to have seen some progress by now instead of my…

Your Calorie Goal
This is more of a curiousity and opinion based question. When creating your calorie goal do you base it on the amount you want to eat in a day or the Net? Do you decide that you will only eat X amount of calories unless you earn more, or do you eat X amount of calories and everything you burn is bonus? Edit: Personally I…

Green Tea Extract Question

Rest Days
Does anyone else find these days hard? I understand that they are necessary, but I like working out. I like being able to eat more because I am burning calories and I like having something to do, so I am too busy to think about eating. What do you guys do on your rest days? Do you like them? I'm honestly looking for ways…

First Day of C210K Looking For Tips
Hi. I just started running. I did a baby step yesterday and did 10 minutes of running/walking after a 5 minute warm up, but today I actually started the Couch to 10K app. How many of you have done this or the 5k with an app? How long did it take you to get up the 5k and 10k mark? Do you have any stretches that I should do…

Put Your Goals Into Perspective
I don't know about anyone else, but I would like to see my progress each week, and I am exited to see everyone else's as well :) I thought that people could record their weight progress from when we started to the end.

Weekly Challenges?
I was wondering if anyone here would be up for doing sub-challenges within our own eight week challenge. Each challenge could be different. A few I have thought of are: * Burn 3500 calories in a week (or 500/day) during exercise by MFP standards. * Try something new. (Whether that be a physical activity or a food you have…

My arm has been bothering me.
Okay, first thing is first. My arm does not hurt, that is not the problem here. It feels like a string is twitching in my forearm closer to my elbow on my left arm. I have no idea if this is a vain or what it is, but I'll lay out what has been going on. I am doing a seven day cleanse (currently on day four where things…

Grapefruit Eaters
Hey, I was just wondering who ate grapefruit on MFP. Do you like grapefruit or do you eat it because you want to lose weight? Personally I really enjoy grapefruit. I leave it on the top of the fridge and it becomes so sweet :3 For me it is just a bonus that it is filled with water, vitamin C, and that it may have…

METS
If you want to calculate the amount of calories you burn in an exercise you could do it yourself! Most of us know that using MFP's standard of how many calories we have burned is way too much. The other option is to use METS and use the formula. In order to calculate the amount of calories you burned do the following: 1.…

Questions About 500-700 Calories In A Day
In a day I currently eat about 1300-1500 calories. The net may be different, but those are the calories I consume on a daily basis. On top of this I always try to do at least 30 minutes of some form of exercise. Some days I don't make it to the net weight, but I am not starving myself either. I eat until I am not hungry…
