Mature women who eat more to lose?
My mom and I are on this journey together. About 2 weeks ago I upped my calories and started losing weight. My mom on the other hand is eating about 600 calories a day and not eating back exercise calories so netting 400 some days. She says it is because she is post Menopausal and I just don't understand how much…

primal and calories
I just started following the Primal Blueprint and have a question. If I am suppose to eat when hungry and stop when satisfied, can I stop obsessing about meeting calories? I just ate a very filling nutritious dinner and according to Mfp's recipe maker, 1 serving was only 148 calories! There is no way I am going to get to…

So frustrated
So I have been stuck gaining and losing the same 4 pounds every week for months. I tried to up my cals and I just gained weight over 4 months so I took a look at my fitbit and realized my ACTUAL TDEE is only 1567 when I don't exercise. So I was actually packing on more weight! I know my diary is closed and I won't be…

type of deadlifts?
I am curious what type of deadlifts you prefer. Romanian, Straight leg, "regular" (not sure what to call the ones where you go all the way to the floor with the weight and do a slight knee bend not a squat though), Wide Grip, other? I am trying to create my perfect weight lifting routines and would love to hear what you…

OK have at it
I have opened my diary and am desperately seeking answers to why I am GAINING weight. I know you will all tell me to eat more, but if you look back several days you will see I vary my calories up and down and don't always under eat. SO take some time if you will and help me figure out this problem. Seriously I am GAINING…

Help me build up my home gym
So I bought a bunch of dumbbells and due to a shipping error they never sent them and are now out of stock. So I am wondering should I reorder them or should I just bite the bullet and get an Olympic barbell and weights? I originally ordered the dumbbells to do Chalean extreme. But now I am considering doing NROLFW. Any…

Brazil butt lift question
I started the Brazil Butt Lift this week. So far I have only done the High and Tight and the Tummy Tuck videos. I enjoy them both and feel like I am getting some good toning. So my question is, do the other videos in the series seem necessary or will these two be enough to get my butt and abs in shape (along with regular…

muscles or not?
I have a question. I see lots of threads where people are losing inches and not weight. People immediately respond with, "you are gaining muscle". Then I read posts saying you can't gain muscle on a calorie deficit. So my question is, if I am at a deficit, and thus am not gaining muscle, how come every week I can increase…
