Silly Scales....
I HATE it when I go to the doctor and their scale says my weight is WAY more than the one that I use at the gym......In fact, I went to the gym right after my appointment just to make sure that I didn't really gain EIGHT POUNDS. Yup, I'm not talking about a little fluctuation-I'm talking about EIGHT POUNDS-that is half the…

Just went shopping in my closet!
I just pulled out some spring/summer clothes that I kept from my slightly skinner days and they fit! I no longer look like I am going to bust out at the seams or straight up preggo. I have a more work to do before I fit into the few bits of my skinny pre-college clothes left in the house but I'll get there one day!

Do I get more calories....

I know that I really don't get extra calories.....I just wish behavior management counted as a calorie burn! :)

Does the time of day matter?
Hello all! Is there a "best" time to work out to maximize how many calories are burned in one session? I normally workout about 2-3 hours after eating dinner at about 8 or 9 pm and then go to bed around 11 or 12 pm. Would it be better if I worked out right before dinner or in the morning? Thanks!

Help-muscle vs. fat??
Hello all, I have been using MFP for about 2 weeks now and my weight hasn't changed. I had a few days (2 to be exact) where I fell off track and went over my calories but I didn't think that would totally halt any progress. I used to just use stepping/walking as my workout and I added swimming a month ago. I know that my…
