Pregnancy and weight maintenance
Can one at 20 kgs overweight expect to try and maintain that weight from the start to the end of a pregnancy? And how would one adjust calories to account for that?

Plateau
I have 20 kgs to lose and the first month went well. I lost 3 kgs in the first 2 weeks on a loss of 0.75kg/week goal with 1310 calories/day. But I barely moved in 2 weeks so I shifted my goal to 1kg/wk loss on 1200 calories and I'm fine,no loss of energy or anything as I previously experienced (the opposite actually ) .…

Yoga for weightloss. Fact or myth
Or does it mainly help with toning? And will toning be beneficial at all with so many layers of fat over it. I'm currently 20 kgs overweight. Will yoga do anything for me at all. I usually jog but I have an injury preventing me from doing so. Also which is better, pirates or yoga? I tried pirates but hated it.

Recurring iliopsoas
I used to jog often without trouble but it's been a few years and when I started a few weeks ago I pulled my iliopsoas muscle. I waited a week and stretched and rest and ice bla bla. Tried again and it flailed again. Same story a week later. What is happening? ?!! And how do I start jogging again without it recurring. I…

Bad vs good calories
Apart from the obvious health benefits of eating healthy food, does it make a difference where your calories come from? I eat very healthy in the week and then eat junk on weekends but I stay within my calorie deficit, but I seem to pick up weight on weekends. Is this because of the kind of foods I'm eating? Is it not as…

Good start but stopped losing weight almost immediately
I lost 2 kgs in my first 2 days on mfp but then i felt weak and hungry and set my goal from 1kg/wk loss to 0.75 kg and it stopped and I gained back a half a kg. It's been 10 days since and I don't understand what is happening? I have 20 kgs to lose and I log everything and even exercise, 7 minutes and I jog/walked once. Is…

Exercise makes me sick
Literally. I can walk without problem but the moment I step things up, start jogging or other aerobic exercise I start off well but then I get a cold or flu and I have to stop until I'm better and start from the beginning . This is frustrating cause I would really like to get fit for once and not be set back by illness. I…

Scale vs shape
I have lost barely any weight,not even a kg (ok it has only been a week). I just adjusted calories without starting to exercise. But I swear it looks like my tummy has gone down and my pants don't strangle me as much as usual. Could I lose weight without losing weight? ?

Bad start to the day
I just started this week and it's been going well. This morning however, I had my usual breakfast of oats and peanut butter but I'm still hungry. And now I'm also shaky. I feel weak. But I don't want to use more calories before 9 in the morning. Do you guys have any energising tips for keeping up during your weight loss…
