Which Nutrition Sites Do You Trust?
I'm trying to figure out the nutrition stats for beef tenderloin (i.e., filet mignon). I'm finding wildly variant numbers on different sites which seems weird to me. I don't think I've had this issue with other meats. Has anyone else run into this? Do you have a particular site you trust?

Balanced Diet
I'm currently dealing with a neurological issue such that I've had a headache constantly for 9 days. It's not a migraine, unfortunately, because if it was it would be gone by now, but it's certainly of migraine level intensity.

Hungry The Day Before Big Loss?
I weigh daily to see trends and such (and because I'm to impatient to wait for once a week), and I've noticed something odd. I find that I'm really hungry all day the day before a rather sudden drop. This has happened a few times, and it's always just my normal routine, no more or less food than usual, and I'm not usually…
