Lost my motivation
I am 31 years old and in February I had to have a complete radical hysterectomy, which caused some depression. I had been doing really good with logging my food intake and exercising every day but during my recovery time, I could not be very active and I tended to overeat because of the depression. Hence, I gained weight…

This is gonna sound really stupid!!
I was wondering if anybody logged calories burned for doing stuff like grocery shopping, cleaning house, sex, etc.... things you wouldn't normally consider as "exercise". I know that sounds really bad but I heard on tv that these things (especially sex) can burn an enormous amount of calories............

Just need to vent and know I'm not alone.....
Does anyone ever feel like "what is the point". I mean, I have done so good in the past two weeks, I am down 10 pounds and am sticking to my eating plan and exercise routine, I don't see a difference but I am proud of myself, and then someone takes my picture and I still look like a beached whale. I know it takes time but…

I have a silly question?
Is it wrong or unhealthy to eat the majority of your calories in one meal? I am from the south so dinner is a BIG deal, and I might eat only 200 calories before dinner but eat 800 calories at dinner. I stay under my daily caloric intake, but I was just curious if it would affect my weight loss by doing it this way. I have…

Yay....8 pounds down!!!
I am so excited and I just wanted to share with everyone. I have lost 8 pounds in a little over a week, which is what I wanted, about a pound a day. I cut out my sodas, although I do have one occasionally if I have the calories left at night to have one. This site and the people on it are AMAZING and I just want to thank…

Is it wrong?
I have a stupid question. As you all know from an earlier post, I am a Mt Dew junkie. The past 5 days, I have not drank anything but water, no soda. At the end of the day, if I have calories left over, calories before the one's I gain by exercising, is it wrong to reward myself with one soda as long as I follow it with a…

Halloween Binge.....Help!!!
I have two small children who are all geared up for Halloween. Every year, they make quite a haul and feel they need to be generous with me. They know that I am a sucker for Tootsie Rolls so they always give me ALL of theirs, and everyone around here loves to give out Tootsie Rolls. Any advice on how to avoid ruining my…

I need some help and advice...please!!!!
I am having a hard time trying to get into the routine of watching what I eat and exercising regularly. I watch what I eat and still end up way over my 1200 calories per day. I run on an eliptical once a day, but I get so winded and wore out so quickly, I am only burning about 115 calories a day. I am a Mt. Dew addict, and…

Hello....New Here
Hello. I am new to this. I have struggled with my weight for over 5 years now and it has become increasingly harder to stay sane. I look around and see all of these skinny people, and when I look in the mirror I hate what I see. I can't even get a job, because we live in a society where looks are more important than skill.…
