How long do you...
I have a question... If you have reached your calorie limit for the day and you are having a craving for a certain unhealthy food, how long do you tell yourself to wait (to see if the craving passes)? Example: I want Ice Cream. I'm going to wait 20 minutes and see if this passes. How do you get it off your mind? It's like…

My Rear Endddd!
So I started off as a size 26 woman's... I'm now a size 20 but I'm noticing something. It fits fairly well around the waist (a little loose), but my BUTT! :( They are sagging in the butt region and I've always had a bubble butt. I'm losing my weight in my butt. Lol. Do any of y'all have exercises you can recommend to lift…

That darn sweet tooth!
I personally am not someone for salty foods. I don't care for chips, etc.... When it comes to sweets though, whew! I can eat sweets all day long. I have now kept them out of my house but I want them so bad. Does anybody know how to get rid of those cravings with healthy alternatives? Thanks y'all! :)

I'm debating....
I'm exercising at home like crazy but I got an offer from a local gym to do a month by month prepay for only $19.99 a month and 3 Free hour long sessions with a personal trainer per week.

How do you motivate yourself?
In general I love working out, especially once I do it and my blood starts pumping. My problem is before hand when I feel like "blah, I really don't want to do anything"! My question is, how do you motivate yourself to get up and DO IT even when you really don't want to? Please share. :)

Understanding Muscle Gain: Exercising.
Hello everyone, I have a question. I recently started the 30 Day Shred. Prior to starting the program my weight was 273 pounds. I'm almost a week in and my current weight is now 278.4.

The heavier you are....
After seeing my weight loss results and other peoples on MFP I have to ask this question... it seems that the heavier you are (starting) the faster you lose weight. As your weight goes down... the amount you lose per week does as well. Can you explain to me why? I'm assuming because the heavier you are the more your body…

Water Consumption Question
Hi Again! I have a question. MFP is telling me to drink 8 8oz glasses of water. On an average day I can easily consume more like 10 8oz glasses of water. I'm just always so thirsty. The virtual water glass on MFP starts spilling over as if I've consumed too much. Is that a bad thing? How much water is too much? Thanks!…

Muscle tearing; weight gain?

It's a good kinda pain though. :) Since working out I have gained three pounds! :0 It's so discouraging so I decided to do a bit of research on this topic. Apparently when you exercise your muscles get microscopic…

How important is Protein in a diet?
Not really a diet, but in general how good is protein for you? As a former anorexic who was put into recovery and gained a mass amount of weight, I never really cared about nutritional value. It was always about restriction and guilt. It's like learning to eat for the first time for me. I'm committed to doing this the…

Coffee: Is it bad for you?
How do you feel about coffee? I'm not speaking about the calories in general, because without all the adding or creamer and sugar, coffee has virtually no calories. How do you feel the caffeine effects you? To me it makes me not hungry but once it wears off, BOOM! I want to eat, and eat a lot! It just doesn't seem all that…

What time do you "Close your Kitchen"?
Today another member mentioned that she closed her kitchen at a certain time. Pretty much meaning no more food after the "Kitchen is Closed". I thought it was a wonderful way to look at it.

How often do you weigh yourself?
I would really like to know a H E A L T H Y schedule to weigh yourself. I've seen people say everyday and to me that can be so discouraging. Your weight can change so easily by water retention, building muscle, going the bathroom. It shouldn't become and obsession in my opinion or it becomes very unhealthy.... How often do…
