Hormonal/Stress Lack of Hunger?
Do any ladies have days where you are not hungry and days where you are hungry and can eat anything in sight? I do. This kind of fluctuation seems to be related to my hormones. I have a lot of stress in my life right now. I'm currently at the not hungry week. My calorie intake is so low, it's pathetic. Food completely lost…

Over a year of MFP! (with pic)
I started this journey January 2, 2012. It's been a little over a year now. I've faithfully logged my calories and exercise. I'm so glad to have found this website! What started out as a simple desire to lose weight has now turned into a lifestyle change. I still have a ways to go yet, but I'm proud of my success!…

Lose with Weight Training
Has anyone successfully lost weight with weight training alone?

Thermogenic and HR monitor
Does anyone here take a thermogenic and use a heart rate to track their calories? I definitely notice a difference between taking it and not. On the days when I take it, my heart rate is maintained at a higher level during exercise and I end up burning more calories. I also sweat a lot more. On the days when I forget to…

Struggling to Eat TDEE
This question is for people currently eating at maintenance. I'm currently doing metabolism reset. On some days I'm good and can eat around my TDEE (2200 calories). On other days, I'm so stuffed that I absolutely do not want to eat anymore. Do you guys eat regardless of whether you are full or not? For example today, I…

2 month plateau, Please Help!
For the past 2 month I've been hanging around the same weight +/- 1-2 lbs. It's getting terribly old :( I've currently on my 7th week of eat more calories but scale is still not budging. What am I doing wrong? I average about 5 hours of exercise a week including Turbofire and 3 X a week of weight training. I eat between…

Scale out the window?
I'm seriously contemplating throwing my scale away! When I first started MFP back in January I was overweight. Since then, I am down to the upper level of normal weight per BMI. I am very obsessive when it comes to weighing myself. I weight myself at least once a day, sometimes twice. For the past two months, I've been…

Stretch Calories
I recently started Turbo Fire. There's a 12 min stretch session at the end of my workout. I'm debating whether I should count the calories I burned from stretching. I use my polar FT4 Heart Rate monitor to figure out my calories burned. For example: Today I did 16 min of HIIT training and then 12 min of stretch immediately…

Healthy Meal On Vacation (Palleo)
We are planning on taking a few trips this summer to the east and west coast. I'm planning on sticking to my healthy diet as much as possible. We will mainly be eating out. I would love to receive some good ideas on what would be healthy to eat at restaurants that sort of fits the palleo diet and low sodium. I plan to eat…

Do you have to eat after workout?
My husband always makes a fruit protein shake after his workout. He tells me muscles will catabolize without eating shortly after workout. I sometimes will eat and sometimes will not. I really don't feel like eating when I'm not hungry. I may feel hungry after doing strength training. I definitely don't feel hungry after I…

Weight Lifting
Hi everyone, I've been doing MFP for over a month now. I am very impressed with people's results from heavy lifting. I have no desire to lose my curves, but it seems ladies will only appear slim and toned. I would like to be friends with other people who are into heavy lifting so that I can view your diary to get ideas for…

Active Life Wii
Does anyone else have this game? I know I'm not in the best of shape, but I simply can't get past some of these exercises on here. I got stuck on the one where you have to pedal the airplane. It seems like no matter how hard I push myself I can't get to the goal :( I would appreciate any good strategies. I'll keep plugging…

Weight Watcher Question
A couple of people I work with pay for the Weight Watchers online program. I've never done Weight Watchers myself so I'm curious how it works. It sounds to me like it's the same as myfitnesspal except they use points for food and as you exercise you can eat more. Either way you are still keeping track of your food intake…
