Over Eating!
All I want to do today is sit on my couch and eat whatever I want. Why are the weekends so hard? The struggle is real.

How often do you workout?
I am sure this has been discussed before. How often do you workout? Before I had a baby, I would do an hour a day. Now, I try to just squeeze in 30-35 minutes of a Jillian Michael's hiit type workout. It's very challenging with working full time as a teacher and my responsibilities as a mother to find time to exercise.…

Mid day snack
I'm having the hardest time after 3:30p to eat well. What's an awesome filling midday snack that will hold me over until dinner? This time is messing me up in my weight loss.

Rewards of weight loss
I recently created rewards on scratch off notes. Each pound I lose, I grab a scratch ticket to reveal my prize. I created twenty for the twenty pounds I want to lose. Any one else have a rewards program? I have a hard time staying motivated.

Scale Not Moving!
I am sure there are other boards such as this, but I can't help just ask for some motivation. I lost 10lbs in a month, the past 2 weeks, nothing. I even have gained 2lbs and lost 2lbs. I stay within 1200-1250 or so calories a day and exercise doing strength training/weights and running 3 miles. Why is the scale not budging…

How many calories do I eat? TDEE/BMR confusion.
I apologize in advance to be another person to post a similar question. I have read and read other questions and responses, but I am still struggling in figuring this all out. I have a bodybugg so I know my TDEE is 2050 calories burned total without exercise on a day that I would say watch tv on the couch all day. BMR:…

1200 calories a day suggested by nutritionist
Why do nutritionists/doctors/professionals suggest for people to eat at 1200-1400 calories to lose weight? If eating more to weigh less works, why is it 1200 calorie diets are suggested? I know that if I went to a nutritionist today, they would have me eat about 1200-1400 calories a day. I have a friend who is eating about…

I need some vegan friends
I've been vegan for over a year now and love it! I'm looking for vegan friends on MFP. Ones that are trying to lose weight. I want to lose 40lbs. I'm also sick of people saying, "You're vegan. I'm surprised, you're not skinny" - great thanks. I'm not vegan to be skinny, jerk. Anyway, vegan friends needed here!

Scared/Terrified to "Eat More to Weigh Less"
I want to eat more to weigh less. However, I am terrified to do it. Please encourage, help, guide, and share your stories. I need to do it. But for some reason I can't wrap my head around it and I'm afraid. Someone just push me. How has eating more benefited your weight loss?

Calories consumed on BR
I am vegan, so I don't follow her meal plans. However, I eat very clean and 1200 calories/day in the recommended schedule that she suggested: 250 breakfast, 400 lunch, 150 snack, 400 dinner. What is everyone else doing in terms of calories consumed while doing Body Revolution? The scale isn't moving for me the past 2…

When do you know you've done enough?
Just wondering what people think about this question: When have you done enough exercise for a day? Is it when you have walked 30 minutes, gone for a 60 minute bike ride, ran 3 miles, walked the dog, or did two hours of cardio, etc.? Today I went hiking with my dog for 3 miles and did some strength training for 30 minutes.…

Eat or Save Earned Exercise Calories
I workout everyday for over an hour but I don't log my exercise. I rather just know I exercised and hope the weight comes off faster. What does everyone do with their earned exercise calories? Eat/Save?

Bonus/Extra Cardio
What is everyone doing for their bonus/extra cardio, if at all? Are you only doing the required workout of the day or are you adding in a trip to the gym, a walk with your dog, maybe doing the cardio dvd provided, etc.? I have been doing the required workout of the day and then try to run 3 miles and/or hike with my dog on…
