Goal question
Is 104lbs for a 16 year old girl at 5'1 an unrealistic goal? Note, this isn't for me, it's my friend's ultimate goal for herself, just wondering what you guys think.

Damn alcohol.
Had a bit of a wake up call today. I drink alcohol, and get drunk, pretty much every weekend. My group of friends are heavy social drinkers and it's just what we do when we spend time together, which is obviously a lot. I used to drink cider before I couldn't bear the thought of all the calories, so switched to wine, which…

Not a fun topic, but feel horrible.
I know this isn't the place for stuff like this, but I feel terrible and I have no idea who else to talk to. There's some awesome people on MFP and I just needed to get this out on here. Last night I got really drunk and spent the night with the guy that my best friend likes. He's a good friend of mine and I don't even…

Protein bars?
Never really done the whole protein bar meal replacement thing, but I wanna learn more about it. How good is this method for helping weight loss?

I just messed up completely.
I'm embarrassed to even write this, but I wanna see reactions and stuff. My mum (always been overweight and thinks me 'skinny' at 145lbs) bought me a tub of Ben & Jerrys ice cream. I was well under my calorie goal today so thought I'd have a little bit as a treat. I've just sat ere and ate THE WHOLE THING. It's like 1000…

Never hitting my calorie goal!
I literally never meet my calorie goal for the day, but today has got out of hand. I'm completely full up from dinner, had a good day, but thanks to a taekwondo class I'm still about 600 calories under my goal!? I still find it hard to eat a lot anyway, can anyone recommend any foods that would be good to snack on?…

Strength training virgin, help please!?
I really want to start doing weight training as I've heard so much about how good it is for your body lately, but I'm a complete beginner! I have no idea where to start. I'm 5'1, 140lbs and 19 years old. I'm not sure how much is heavy enough for me to be lifting, don't know what type of weights to buy or what exercises to…

General rant
This will sound silly, but I've been struggling with weight loss for years and it's never happened, and there's so many amazing people on MFP that have reached their goals. I'm just having one of those days where I don't know if I'll ever be a success story.

Exercising in the morning!
Who here exercises in the morning? How effective is it?

I can't meet my calorie goal.
My calorie goal is 1400 or something.. I eat 3 meals a day and snacks, and I'm usually under my goal. I have no idea what foods to eat to get it up. Help please?! Check out my diary if you want/have time.

Wanna up my calorie goal!
I always find myself eating too little, but have no idea what specific foods to eat that are healthy and good to up your calories with. Any suggestions?
-
Healthy snack ideas?
I've found myself usually under my calorie goal with my three meals a day, so I usually turn to snacking to get this up. This wouldn't be a problem, but my snacks are repetitive and usually consist of cereal bars, and other processed crap to be blunt! I was wondering if anyone wanted to share their favourite healthy snack…

Do you have to eat back exercise calories?
I burn around 300cals a day from exercise, mainly cardio with v sits and pushups, but I always feel weird if I get told to eat back the calories I lost. As if it's pointless? I don't really know much about the scientific aspects of this, but any advice?

Scared to up my calories
I'm 5'1 and 140, and I really want to be 105lbs. I've always had a bad relationship with food (EDNOS for 4 years) but I want to lose weight, healthily, and i generally don't know how anymore, stupid as it sounds. How can I lose this weight? Help!

Eating too few calories
I'm recovering from an eating disorder, and want to lose weight the healthy way. But I'm really struggling to eat a decent amount each day. Can someone kind of explain how eating around 1200-1300 actually loses weight? Sorry for sounding stupid but for me, this sounds so much.

New and seeking motivation!
Sorry if this isn't the place for this kind of post, ect, I'm new to this site (have been struggling with food for 4 years ish) but I have had EDNOS for years and really want to try and lose weight healthily now. Just wondering if anyone wanted to help and be motivated in return! I'm 5'1, 16 years old and 140lbs, and I…
