Why not me?? (discouraged)
I see everyone else's great weight loss each week and wonder, why not ME??! I started eating better, staying under my calories (minus a day or two here and there where I went over by a teeny bit, not much though), exercising 30-60 minutes each day (these two workouts get my sweat pouring!) So, how come I went from…

Making goals....
I am starting fresh as of yesterday! I have my elliptical being delivered today so I am more pumped than ever!! I need help, however, setting my goals.

Question for the PROs...
On days that you don't work out, rest days, do you still eat a Net goal of 1200 for the day?

Calorie Question..HELP!
I have always heard that you must burn MORE calories than you consume. If we are told on here that we must eat back what we burn, how is that leading to weight loss? According to MFP, I had a goal of 1340 calories today. Well, I burned 560 calories today. So that adjusted my calories I had left to consume. I ended up…
