New scale...
This might be a silly question but I bought a new scale because I felt my old was was becoming inaccurate. I'd get on it one day and then the next I was 5 lbs heavier. I know weight fluctuates, I know people say you shouldn't get on a scale everyday but I believe everyone is different. It's hard for me to stay off the…

Eating back burned calories.
Why? I've never understood this so I've never done this. I don't understand the concept of burning 600 calories and then eating them back. Why not just not burn them in the first place, if you're just going to eat them anyway? Please enlighten me.

Bum exercises!?
I'm looking for some great exercises to work my butt, since it's gotten a lot flatter with my weight loss! I'm making my own small daily routine focusing on my stomach and butt with cardio. I do normal squats and sumo squats and one legged squats, as well as butt lifts (laying on my back with my knees bent, feet on the…

5'8 ladies, what's your goal weight?
I'm 25 years old, 5'8 and I started at 248 pounds. My first goal was 180, then 170, then 165. I'm 163 now, with a larger frame. I'd just like to know what your goal weight is. I think I may do 155, I'm pretty comfortable with my body now, I can wear pretty much anything I want without stressing about how I look. I feel…

Just. Keep. Going!
I just want to tell all of you that are stuck, feel like giving up, or plateauing, just keep going! I've lost 84 pounds in the last 16 months (including a couple "breaks", where I got tired or frustrated and quit for a month, sometimes 2). If I can do it, any one can! It's not easy, sometimes it seems impossible, but it…

Brazil Butt Lift, anyone?
I am interested in this. Does anyone know how long the workouts are? And does it work? I've lost over 55lbs, and my tush is a lot smaller now, and kinda "sagging". Will this help? I've heard it's also a full body work out, cardio included. Can anyone give me a bit more info on it?

Rest Days?
I am doing the 30 Day Shred every day, as well as using my elliptical, only for about 10 mins a night. Jillian Michaels says in her Ripped in 30 video to make sure you take a rest day and I've heard lots of people say that... How important is it to do so? I feel guilty when I do. I've been trying to take Saturdays off but…

Calorie intake?
I am 5'7, 24 years old and I'm currently 192lbs. I've lost 55 lbs the past 10 months, 30lbs from MFP. And I have about 25 left to go. All of this came from eating between 1150-1300 calories. People started telling me to eat more calories, so I did, around 1500 and I did not lose weight for two weeks, while previously I was…

P90X/insanity
Are they done by the same person? How long are the workouts? Is there meal plans? Just wondering what to do next, after I'm finished 30 day shred. I like 30DS because the workouts are so short. I have a busy life, working full time, single mom, we do lots of camping and whatnot. I honestly probably wouldn't follow a meal…

Sugar
In trying to up my calories with fruit and veggies... Fruit seem to be higher in calories, which is what I'm looking for; but the sugar! Is it ok to go over my daily sugar limit with apples, bananas, strawberries? Or will that affect my weight loss?

Sugars, I try to keep under 10 and fat, under 5. But lately I've found my proteins over anywhere from 10-17. Should I worry about this and try to keep it lower? Please help…
