So my friend told me we consume more cals than whats said?
Okay, so it's kind of freaking me out now because my friend told me "Remember that protein and carbohydrates both have 4 calories per gram, which is added onto your calorie intake" and I nearly spat out my water. What? I feel so stupid asking this! .. So let's say I have (going to be unrealistic) a cookie that's 50…

Pants size logic ... ?! wtf?
Okay, so yesterday I put on my regular size 16 pair of jeans, and they were a little loose so i'm just like "yay!" and put a belt on and what not. And then today, I put on a pair of pants found in the back of my closet and they were SUPER lose, so I looked at the size expecting to see an 18 or whatever, but it was a…

Looking for a good heart rate monitor + scale???
Alright well i'm really curious to see how many calories I burn during these home exercises I do. I don't have a billion bucks to spend on one of these, so i'm wondering if there's a cheap one out there for maybe under 35 bucks that works good? Same thing goes for the scale! I really want to find a good scale but all the…

MFP, do you see a difference? ):...
I hope this is the right forum... !! 10-13lbs gone and I barely notice a difference!!! My long-distance boyfriend says he sees a "significant" difference, and says my minds playing tricks on me, and then I have two other friends who are like "Yeah, no difference at all, sorry." This is so frustrating!!! But it's my fault…

New, and completely serious this time!
I'm 5'10'', 205 pounds. My goal is to lose 30lbs within the next three months, seems reasonable, right? (: Looking for some friends to help keep me motivated, vice-versa! <3

I binge every time I see success. What the heck..
I have no scale - a week or two ago I went to my grandma's house to use hers, and found that I lost 5lbs. I was so so happy, and for the rest of the day I didn't really care about what I ate and I ended up binging. My binges usually contain 1000-1800 calories. It's not that extreme as to go past 2k or 3k like some of my…

I'm the pickiest eater ever....
I really am. I don't eat any veggies. but junk food - you name it, I eat it. I've been living off junk food my whole life - i'm honestly surprised that i'm only 205lbs at 5'10''. I should be morbidly obese. In one year i'll be able to move out of this house, and that is when i'm deciding to try more foods like salads,…

Ouch, did I pinch a nerve?
Yesterday while working out, I started to feel this pain in the right side of my lower back. It got so bad that I really had to stop, so I took a shower and when I got out it's like every time I laughed or breathed it hurt - it totally sucked. But this morning it's much better, but it's still there. I was thinking of just…

What is your favorite workout music? (:
I love upbeat music that just gets me wanting to dance. Stuff like Black Eyed Peas, or a few selective rap verses from Hollywood Undead, and some dubstep. I don't really listen to any of those genres in general because I like sad, slow songs, but boy do those get me wanting to dance. Just wanted to know if ya'll are like…
