Bad at math. Does overeating automatically equal a pound gained or does it just mean you'll stay th
To elaborate, it was my birthday and I was brought all sorts of yummy goodies. I've been doing pretty good sticking to my calories and have lost over 30 lbs. But I've went over by 1988 calories the past couple of days. I know that 3500 calories equals a pound, but since I'm eating at a reduced rate anyway (not sure what my…

Do you think losing 25lbs in 98 days is good or too slow?
If it seems like I'm seeking validation I absolutely am, lol. I know slow and steady wins the race, but I did think I'd have lost at least 30-40 lbs by now. I'm feeling good and happy about the 25 lbs because it's happening, it's working, using this website and counting calories created a new habit for me that I was…

It's not muscle gain because I'm not doing any exercise regiment at the moment. Regardless should have lost 2-4 lbs by now and instead gained a pound back. I'm…

After several years of weight gain that has been very difficult to lose, I've been following the My Fitness Pal's guidelines for 26 days. That's 2 days shy of a month. I have followed the calorie plans exactly, no guessing. I stick to serving sizes on packages and I log every thing faithfully. If I have a "cheat" meal or…

How to change my profile? It has my age incorrect
lol - I know this is kind of trivial, but I noticed when I go to my home page that it says I am 31 years old and I am 30. I guess I somehow incorrectly put in the wrong date. I've went to my profile to change it but it doesn't give me any options to change my birthdate so perhaps I'm looking in the wrong section. It is…
