Date Night/Dinner Out - WWYD?
I'm having a date night with my husband tomorrow - the third one since the baby was born almost a year ago! Anyways, we are going out to eat, and I'm not sure what to do. I would love some suggestions of restaurants/meals that are low-calorie, but I'm also considering it to be a "free day" type thing and just order what I…

Can someone explain BMR?
The tool here says my BMR is 1,669 calories/day, and my calorie goal is 1200 (but then I add 200 calories for breastfeeding, and I also eat my exercise calories)...I'm a female, 213lbs, and 5'1". When I do the math, that leaves me with less than a pound of a calorie deficit per week even though I have a goal of 2lbs per…

So what am I doing wrong?
I completed my first full week of sticking to my calorie intake and exercising, and I didn't lose anything (I'm set at 2lbs a week). In fact, I gained .2lbs. What did I do wrong, and what can I do to fix it? My diary is open. Thank you!

Cassel vs. Orton
So I think Cassel might have a little competition on his hands! Orton looked pretty darn good those last couple games. It wouldn't surprise me if Orton was put as starting quarterback for next season - thoughts?

Measurements - Is that even possible?
So I took measurements on the 2nd. I *thought* they were accurate, but I took measurements today, and they are different, smaller yes, but it just seems like "too much" to be believable. I've been doing the 30 day shred, but it's been a week! Here are the measurements: Is it even possible to lose inches that fast, or is it…

Calories when Juicing?
I have a juicer and would like to make some fresh juice with some fruits and veges that I have, but how do I count the calories for that? Would I count all the calories for the whole fruit or vege I put in there or just partial calories?

Hesitant to Eat Back Exercise Calories?
Is anyone else really hesitant to eat back their exercise calories? I have a cheap $25 HRM, and the past day or two, I've gone by what it tells me, but it just seems like a LOT of calories, and I'm hesitant to trust it enough to eat that many calories...Today I worked out for a total of 55 minutes (Just Dance on the Wii,…

Eating calories at night?
So...I'm still trying to figure out how many calories I can eat during the day so I don't have huge amounts left at night...like tonight - completely stuffed from dinner (like I literally could not eat another bite) and I need 757 more calories. That isn't a HUGE deal because I can fill it in with nuts later, however, I'm…

That's it? Really?
This is probably going to sound stupid...but all I have to do is stick to my calorie goals and I will lose weight? Like for real? It just seems too simple...Today wasn't hard for me - I am supposed to eat 1200 calories + 200 for breastfeeding my 11 month old (my estimate) + exercise calories, and I wasn't ever starving...I…

Cramps in calves?
Hi! I started the 30DS the 1st, so I completed the 3rd day today (erm, yesterday! lol), and ever since, my left calf has been burning! If I'm not stretching it out, I get HORRIBLE cramps in it! What can I do to stop this? I'm getting plenty of water!

Cooking with Oils
When you cook with an oil, whether it be EEOV, coconut, etc., how do you count those calories? Do you add the entire amount of calories that you cooked with? For example, today I made some popcorn with a TBSP of coconut oil, and I counted half the calories of the oil because I ate half the popcorn I made. Should I be doing…

Hello! I'm new here!
I am Virginia. I am hoping to lose a significant amount of weight before getting pregnant with our second child - I should have started this months ago, and I've certainly tried, but I didn't know where to begin so I just didn't. Bad decision! My biggest issues are portion control, junk food, eating from stress, eating at…
