Always hungry because of meds
I take a medication that unfortunately increases my appetite and I am always hungry! I'll eat a meal and literally an hour later my stomach will growl. I'm eating at a deficit and following MFP 1200 cal a day. I cant stand this hunger. It makes it so hard to stay in the 1200 cal mark. Anyone else take meds that do this? If…

Frozen dinners and losing the weight.
So I am on a 1200 calorie diet and just eating low calorie frozen dinners and I have lost 8 pounds in 3 weeks.

Could the protein shakes I'm drinking be doing this to me? I drink 22 oz AdvantEdge twice a day (which is 4 shakes). For dinner I have a…

Need help understanding calorie deficit
Hi everyone, here is another question for you. In order to lose weight, you have to burn more calories than you eat, correct? Is this done on a daily basis mathematically? For example, if I eat 1000 calories today, I have to exercise & burn at least 1100 calories to burn off the food as well as the stored fat? If that is…

Exercise on an empty stomach?
Is it true to exercise on an empty stomach because then you are burning actual body fat? Whereas, if you eat before working out you are burning the "food" ? btw-I am still early in my weight loss journey (1-2 weeks).

My Body Craves Sugar Bad!
