what is going on with my body?!
so last weekend I had 2 parties to go to and I ended up gaining 1.6 lbs over the weekend. It went down right away so now I have a .8 lb gain, but now its Thursday and my weight isn't budging.

Don't know what to do!
So I recently joined mfp as a way to stay on top of my weight since I am pretty much happy where I am and I want to be sure that i am fueling my body with whole and healthy foods. I began logging and noticed that I only consume 800-950 calories a day! I usually eat large salads and a lot of fruit and fish and half the time…

feel gross
So it been a week....my weight shot up 2.6 lbs right away, then 4 days later I was down 1.6, then shot back up to 1 lb 2 days later. I've been constipated for 3 days, and I'm starting to miss my old weight. I started the this program because I had been in starvation mode for too long and was having difficulty maintaining…

Plateau.....possibly a good one?
So I gained 2 lbs, not a huge deal, and I don't feel any huger and my clothes still fit the same. My weight hasn't be going down, and it hasn't been going up either. Am I done?

Fat/calorie absorption
Ok so this might be tmi BUT... I randomly just got diarrhea for reasons unknown to me (I think I have IBS because it's usually either diarrhea or constipation) and I was wondering if calories are absorbed when one has diarrhea or not. Should I eat something to get my calories back up? Am I missing out on nutrients?

disgusted with myself

kind of a difficult question about body fat...
Ok, i am at my goal weight and have a tiny tiny pooch on my lower abs and no matter what, it won't go away. When pinched, its pretty thin, but i can pull it away from my stomach pretty far...is this just excess skin from losing 17 lbs? Or could it be fat? I would say it's about half an inch thick. I cant really pinch much…

annoying stomach pooch...help!
ok, so I pretty much reached my goal weight and I am happy with everything except for this stupid tiny pooch on my stomach, it's not a huge deal but i really just want a completely flat stomach. Apparently, this stubborn little blob of fat is genetic, and my exercise and correct eating won't get rid of it. Any suggestions?

Is it too late?
If I have been eating below my BMR- 1370 for a year, is it too late to try this program? I have reached my goal weight but often it fluctuates a few pounds and I would like to just keep it consistent. I also would like to be more healthy because I don't think I am eating enough, even though I never had a huge appetite to…

I do some form of exercise 5-6 days a week and weigh 110.2 lbs and I am 5'7. (I know that sounds really gross and skinny but I have a very narrow frame). My abs won't show and I still have a little bit of pooch that never goes away...ever. Also, whenever I eat, my stomach puffs out a lot. Am I just weak?

cycles of weight gain
Hi everyone! I lost 17 lbs and am finally happy with how I look, however I notice that I have cycles of weight gain and loss. Every once in a while, I'll crave the act of eating, and will gain around 2 lbs in two days, even though mathematically, it doesn't make sense. Then, it will all come off in about 2 to 4 days and…
