Results?
So I have just recently decided to switch up my workouts. Usually I do just cardio. That is how I lost 20+ lb before, BUT I was still not getting the defined/toned look I wanted. So I'm switching to strength training (and it's kicking my butt). My question is, and I know everyone is different, but how long until you…

Running or incline walking??
Recently I have been gong back to the gym. I think the reason I stopped going, was because I HATE running. I can do it, but I hate doing it. So I have decided in an effort to get back to the gym, not to force myself to run, but to find other things to do that still burn quite a bit of calories. I use my Fitbit Charge HR to…

Fitbit
Got another question! I posted earlier about just eating and not working out much. How accurate are fitbits with calories burned? Right now I am eating 1490 cal/day & for example, my Fitbit yesterday said that I burned 2100 cal. So was I really at a 600 cal deficit? Or is it maybe over-exaggerating it? Thanks again

Losing weight on just eating healthy??
Got a quick question for the people that have been losin weight just by calorie counting and not really going to the gym. I am set at 1490 for my daily calories. I am 5'6" 179lb, 19 years old & want to get to 160lb. About a year ago I started going to the gym 5-6 days a week and doing mostly cardio for an hour and was…

1200 or 1500??
I have been dieting again for a little over a month. I have not lost ANY weight. Last year I lost 21lb, but quit going to the gym and dieting and ended up gaining back 13 of the 21lb. Before when I was on this diet, I was going to the gym 5-6 days a week and was eating anywhere from 1400-1650 cal each day. Now I only go to…

Activity Level
I have my activity level set to "Active". I go to the gym 5-6 days a week for an hour-hour and a half each time. Did I pick the right activity level??

Gained weight????
I started back on dieting and working out last week and I've been pretty good for the most part. About 4 months ago I stopped and I ended up gaining back 13 of the 21 pounds I had lost. So I decided to get back to it. But I'm just confused... last time when I started I lost weight pretty quickly in the beginning.. This…

Heart Rate on Fitbit
So I haven't been to the gym in 8 days (I know I'm slacking), and this is probably the longest I have gone in 5 months without being very strict on my diet and not going to the gym. I know 8 days doesn't sound like a lot, but to me it does. So today I bought a Fitbit to help me get back into it. I was looking at my resting…

Which Fitbit? or iWatch?
So I started my weight loss journey about 5 months ago, and have been sold relying on the calorie counters on the machines at the gym. I have lost 17lb in doing so but within the last month-month and a half my weight loss has slowed dramatically as I only have about 11lb left to reach my goal weight. I know this will be a…

Calories.....
Back again asking about calories... My weight hasn't moved really at all in the past 2 months. I have my activity level set to lightly active (I work at a bank part time) and my calories right now are at 1450 before exercise. I go to the gym 5-6 days a week for about 45 min doing mostly cardio and some strength training…

Calorie Intake
I was at 1540 cal/day and the weight loss stopped after losing about 15-16lb. I lowered it to 1460 cal/day, do you think this will make a difference or should I go more drastic? It's very hard for me to keep a 1200 cal diet bc I go to the gym 5-6 days each week and afterwards I'm usually starving. Just wanted some opinions!

Diary
Can some of you check out my food log and exercise log and tell me anything I'm doing wrong?? Wondering why the weight loss is so slow lately.

Fluctuations
I went on vacation to New York from 6/2-6/6 and only gained 1.5lb which I know is not a lot, but ever since my weight fluctuations have been all over the place! I've started going back to the gym and eating at my calorie goal again. I started thinking I was losing weight again this week and then I weighed myself today and…

Vacation...
So I went on a 4 day vacation to NY and got back about 9 days ago. I gained 2lb while I was there, which I know is not a lot, but when you are working hard to get every pound off its pretty discouraging. We also walked about 10 miles each day which I think is a big contributor as to why that 2lb gain wasn't a 5lb gain.…

Other tips?
I have been eating healthy and working out for a little over 3 months now. Lost 14lb and starting to see the results. BUT I want to lose another 24lb. I'm on a 1540 cal/day goal right now which is projected to have me losing weight at about 2lb/week although I am only losing about 1lb/week. I know the calorie counting…

Eating back calories?
I am at a 1540 cal/day goal right now. I work out almost every day and burn right around 500 calories. Should I eat these back? I usually try to eat some back and leave about 300 calories left over. But after I work out I am usually so hungry that I end up eating most of them back. What I do eat back is 99% of the time…

Getting a little discouraged
Have been dieting & working out for 3 months now and have lost about 14lb. I started at 188 now am at 174. I'm a female, 19 & 5'6". My end goal weight is 150, but right now I am aiming for a smaller goal of 160 because I know losing the weight between 160-150 will be a lot harder. I work out 5-6 days a week for about an…

Calorie Goal
So right now I am at a 1510 cal/day goal. That means I should be losing 2lb/week, but I am only losing about 1lb/week. I'm only about 13lb from my goal weight now so would it be safe to move my goal to 1.5/lb per week which would set me at 1720 cal/day? I don't want to be losing less than a pound per week. But I feel like…

Need help
I started working out and eating a lot healthier about 8 weeks ago. The first month I lost about 8 pounds. Now for the past 4 weeks my weight has not moved at all. I do a walk/run program where I walk for 3 minutes at 3mph and then run for 2 minutes at 4.5mph and I do that back and forth for an hour, trying to build up my…
