revelation: food is not the enemy

Bride-To-Be Needs Motivation
Hi :) I'm getting married next June (2015) and need to lose BIG weight in that timeframe- like 140lbs worth. I KNOW. I'm a fatass. BUT I'm working hard to change. I am somewhat obsessive about my calories now, and I almost need other obsessive people who I can interact with to stay motivated. I also need nonjudgmental…

Weekly Weigh-Ins!
Hi All: My weigh day happens to be Sunday, so I thought I'd start the thread for weekly weigh ins. You don't have to disclose your actual weight, if it makes you uncomfortable-- just post how many lbs down you are. I'm at 252.0 as of this am. (Down 1 lb from mid-wk). This is going to be my start weight. So, I'm actually…

Exercise Calories Shrink throughout the day?
Hi--- Why do your am exercise calories start out as one number and shrink throughout the day? I generally try not to eat my calories back, but today is "one of those days".... it confuses me. why would the calories earned from exercise change? PS- i use fitbit and it syncs automatically, it's not something i enter in MFP.
