Sugar intake?
These past weeks, I've been losing weight easily. I'm eating 1800 calories and I workout regularly. Aside from working out, I have an active lifestyle anyways. I'm able to lose a pound a week this way and even some weeks I'll lose 1.5lbs. Visibly, there's a difference too. I look a lot thinner. Because of this, I never…

Did everything right, gained weight?
This past week I did everything I usually do to lose weight. It's worked every week in the past too (it's been about 7 weeks). I ate the same number of calories, weighed my food, etc. The only difference is that instead of doing 4 days of 30 mins on the treadmill, I did 4 days of 30 mins on the elliptical. But I felt like…

How to be paitent with weight loss?
Do any of you ever get worried you won't lose the weight? For me, I'm almost at my goal, but I'm so afraid I'll get there and still have chub in places I don't want it. I found a good number of calories to eat and days to workout and I've been losing a pound a week. I'm just so worried I won't see any results. I've only…

How long does water weight stick around?
This Friday I had friends come over and messed up with my eating. I won't lie, I ate a lot. But I only did so on Friday. The rest of the week, I ate my MFP number and worked out when I usually do. Sunday mornings, I weigh myself. The scale shows a 0.6lb gain. I know I ate a lot, maybe enough to gain 0.2-0.4lbs...but I find…

Wonky mirror?
This may sound like a weird question, but I'm worried about my bathroom mirror and how it makes me look. I'm at the very end of my weight loss journey with about 10lbs left to go...I really only want to get rid of some fat up by my shoulders and breasts. In the mirror in my bedroom, it looks like it's almost gone, however,…

How much weight should I lose?
I lost 70lbs in the last year and I'm very proud! I'm 141lbs now and 5'3, so I literally just made it into the healthy weight bracket for BMI, woohoo! :-) I still have a few problem areas, and I'm losing weight slowly now to rid of them. My question is, about how much more weight should I lose? Obviously, I know this…

Worried About Getting on the Scale
Long story short, in the past, I was prone to heavily restricting my calories, and while it resulted in fast weight loss, it was dangerous and not sustainable. I took a break from weight loss to build mental strength and I'm doing better now, however, I still have about 10lbs to lose (I'm 5'3 and 142lbs). I'm going to lose…

Inconsistent scale numbers?
Over the past three days my scale has gone up a pound each day for me. Next week I'm going to test a calorie number and see if it results in weight loss, but I'm afraid to do so if my scale is so inconsistent. I've been eating more lately but nowhere near enough to gain a pound in a day. Could these pound changes be from…

new around here & looking for friends
Hi there, I'm Emilie. :) I'm trying to lose some weight and I'd love to make friends so we can motivate each other. Other than weight loss, I love to write and I'm a journalist. I'm a huge music fan, especially of the band Falling in Reverse. I love dogs, cooking, the beach, fashion, all that good stuff :P Nice to meet you…

Losing weight after messing up for a month?
Long story short, I started losing weight about a year ago and I did really well up until the summer time. A lot has gone on this summer, like surgeries and vacations, and visiting friends, so I haven't been working out as much or eating right. Before I messed up with everything, I was almost at my goal weight, maybe like…
