Unexplained weight gain
So I've been eating 1200 calories a day for a few months now, and have managed to lose a few pounds. However, recently my weight loss seems to have hit a stand still, and now I'm even starting to gain a few pounds. I don't understand why, because I was always under the impression that eating 1200 calories a day was enough…

antidepressants
I've just been prescribed antidepressants and they have completely taken away my appetite. I've been forcing myself to nibble at a few things throughout the day because I get really low blood sugar, but has anybody else found a loss of appetite? The thought of eating a meal makes me feel physically sick.

I still don't understand
No matter how many times I google this question, I still can't figure out the answer so if any of you could help it would be great. I always hear that diet sodas will hinder weight loss and I just think... why? They have no calories in them, and I know the chemicals aren't great for me but I'd chose chemicals over calories…

Totally freaking out.
For some reason, my family and friends seem to think that the only way we can enjoy ourselves is to go out for meals. I've had a really bad two days diet wise, so I thought I would be good for the rest of the week. But now I've been told that I'm going out for four meals before Sunday! I'm so full of anxiety now, I don't…

so frustrated.
I was consistently eating around 700 calories a day for quite some time, and after a while the weight loss ground to a halt. People on MFP told me that I needed to increase my calorie intake to 1200, which was a challenge at first but once I adjusted to it, it was fine. I started losing weight again and I felt like I had…

results!
I started eating more only a week ago, and after initially gaining two pounds in the first two days, I have now lost three pounds! I'm wondering if this could be water weight, but considering I've upped my calories by 400 a day, I'm not too sure. But yes, I was hugely skeptical when I started eating more, but I wanted to…

struggling to eat more
I've been eating around 500 - 700 calories per day for a while now, and after losing a few pounds, my weight loss has now come to a complete stop. MFP tells me that I need to be eating at least 1200 calories, but I really struggle to even reach 1000... 700 calories fills me up, so eating any more just makes me feel sick…

I really need a boost.
I've been away for five weeks without any scales, but my diet was going really well. I was sticking to my daily calories the majority of the time, and exercising at least two times a week. Well, I've just weighed myself and guess what? Not a single pound lost. I am generally so upset and annoyed by this, I really thought I…

post-alcohol cravings
so I have big nights out, which obviously adds hundreds of calories to a day's totals anyway, but the next day all I crave is carbs and really fatty foods. I tend to give in to these cravings purely to make myself feel slightly more human after a big night. So the question is, will this one day of eating really badly, and…

Why am I putting on weight?
I've been limiting myself to 1000 calories a day for eight days now, and in the first five days I lost six pounds. Weight was simply dropping off every day. But the last two days I've put on weight. I've put on three pounds in two days! Why am I putting on weight when I'm still eating only 1000 calories?
