Diarrhea from reintroducing junk food?
I've lost a grand total of 9 pounds in 3 weeks. I have my cheat day every Sunday. Last week my cheat was a Reese's cup and I was fine. Today I had a 3 musketeers and combo pretzels with my turkey sandwich for lunch and immediately got gassy and stomach pains along with diarrhea. Could it be coincidence or is my body simply…

Can't get below 150
I've tried ketosis (low carb) and the most I could get down to was 151. I have tried starving myself (stupid but still, could not get below 153) I have tried 1200 calories, and gained weight. Tried 1500 calories, gained weight. So lately I've basically said "screw it" and have been eating whatever I want when I want all…

Hostess is out of business!
I was having a great day (low carbing) until I found out hostess went out of business. Needless to say I bought one of everything of their products and sampled one of everything, while holding my knees to my chest in a fetal position, rocking back and forth. There goes my diet, and the dogs diets, today. Damn you hostess!

Started strength training, starving?
These passed few days I've been slowly working strength training and circuit training into my lifestyle since recent weight gain. Every muscle in my body is sore to the point where I can't walk down a flight of steps without extreme soreness and pain. I'm fine with being sore, but I'm starving? I tried eating clean and…

MEDICINE HAS CALORIES?!
I have a cold/flu type thing. Just for ****s and giggles I scanned the barcode on the medicine. Came up with the exact product I was taking and it came out to 210 calories FOR THE 4 HOUR DOSE. I have been taking it every 4 hours! There is no nutritional value in the nutrient breakdown, but yet it contains 210 calories. I'm…

THE MOST DELICIOUS LOW CARB SUGAR FREE CHOCOLATE EVER
http://www.simplylitefoods.com/index.asp I bought a bar at shoprite and it is amazing. It tastes very real and cocoa-y. Not overly sweet like a hersheys bar can be. I am a huge chocolate and sweets fan. I only eat one block at a time every few days and it completely satisfies my chocolate craving. I bought the milk…

DEODORANT
SO.. Every deodorant I try sucks, that's for females. I feel the need to reapply often. Not that I smell like BO, but the fresh feeling goes away.. Even if I am lounging all day not doing anything and freezing, it stops to work. Without even breaking a sweat. Male deodorant, however, seems to last and last. What do you…

Anyone want to go low carb for a month?
So I've been stuck at the same weight now for about 2 months, and I've been averaging 1200 calories a day, some days 1300. I am never "hungry" ever. My weakness is those cookies at night time, any type of sweet starchy/chocolatey/cakey thing, even if I have cals left over for it. So if anyone would like to try to go low…

Extremely bloated and painful. Up four pounds
Went to an engagement party and ate lots of cheeses, crackers, olives, and other salty foods. I never surpassed 1800 calories. Continued to eat sugary and crappy foods for the next three days after that. And now I am constipated, extremely bloated and up four pounds. I look pregnant. I took laxatives to ease some of the…

Having the urge to binge
Does seeing chocolate cake, sweets, or trigger foods you love on tv, online, or in person ever have this desire to binge and eat and eat until you're so full and satisfied? I'm fighting the urge to binge and thank god I took away all those trigger foods in the house. What do you do when or if you've ever experienced this?

Want to start 30 day shred on July 30th!
Hi all. I ordered Jillian Michael's 30 day shred in hopes that I can lose the rest or knock off some of this weight. I eat below my maintenance calories every day, even if I go over that 1200-1300 amount I set my self on. Just to maintain myself I need to eat 2300 a day, and why I am up 4-5 pounds is beyond me. I've been…

Since upping protein, gained weight
I upped my protein and calories to 1550 a day, then dropped my cals to 1300 a day with eating around 100g of protein a day, over the recommended MFP grams. I have become pretty sedentary since changing jobs, but still continue to remain under my maintenance calories even if having high days. I have gained 3-4 pounds. My…

10 pounds left till goal weight
So my goal weight is 145. My ultimate goal weight is 135. For some reason my weight loss has stalled and it's a fight to lose even a few ounces. I'm becoming increasingly frustrated.

Starving at 1300 cals?
So I was a little hungry when I first started and had it set at 1200 cals, I upped it to 1300. I can eat, get full (off of a 290 cal meal and feel ready to burst) and then three hours later be absolutely starving. I want to lose weight quickly, but I feel like even though I am constantly eating, I am never satisfied for…

I have worked 24 hours in the past two days with four hours sleep in between and my job is on your feet all day, up and down stairs, lifting, picking up, pushing,…
