Weighing Food.
Okay, so serious questions lol I have never ever weighed food before and just bought a food scale. I was looking up how to weigh food but noticed many people say very different ways. Do I weigh before or after a meat is cooked? Same for pasta. Some people said to weigh it before and some said after. Which is more accurate?…

Yogurts.
All my life I have felt like I have missed out because I can't seem to like yogurt very much. The reason I don't like it is because of that sourish taste it has behind the sweetness. I can eat it, but its not something I fancy. I was wondering, are there any yogurts out there that don't have that little sour taste in them?…

30 day Shred question
I am planning on doing the 30 day shred starting tomorrow and was wondering about people that have seen results, do you guys do more exercise than that? I know I should diet and eat healthy of course, but should I also do other exercise besides that to see results? I hear it only burns about 200-500 calories a session but…

What seems more probable?
This last month I took a break from exercising, during this time my weight increased from 259 to 264/265 and stayed that way for most of the month. This last week I went to the gym and my weight dropped back down to 260. I do not think I lost 5 pounds, because I am doing the same thing I did before. But then again, I'm not…

What did your friends/family think after you lost weight?
I was wondering, what did your friends and family say after you lost weight? I have friends that make fun of me, mostly jokingly, but sometimes they don't realize that it pisses me off. I was supposed to have lost at least 30-35 by now, that was my "plan". I've only lost 20-25 pounds so far, and they keep saying how I was…

Just wondering o.o
I always hear that you can't spot reduce, but kinda thought about it, and it doesn't seem to quite make sense. If I were to only workout arms for 3 months, I wouldn't notice any difference at all? o.o I kinda did this (with a little legs and abs) and there is a huge difference, but now I want to try reducing my tummy, but…

Excuses or is there anybody out there like this?

I then ask myself is it really because of that or because you just don't want to go to the…

Struggling to get out of 260/258 range
For the last 3 weeks or so I have been stuck in the 260-258 pound range, it just keeps going back and forth and back and forth!

So right now I weigh 260 and have about 60 pounds til I get to my goal weight. I wanted to try doing the 30 day shred, because I have seen amazing transformations, but should I wait to lose more weight first?

Losing a pound and Gaining a Pound & BMR
S I always hear to gain or lose a pound you need to eat/burn 3,500 calories. So let's says I eat 3,500 or more one day and my BMR is 2000 calories. Is this subtracted from the 3,500 I ate?

Breaking Out because of Gym.
I have been breaking out badly since I started exercising at the gym, I've kind of tested it enough to the point to where its the only explanation I can think of.

Exercise/weightloss and acne?

Really getting tired of scale differences
So I check my weight every day at home on a digital scale and at the gym on those doctor scales. The scale at home keeps saying I weigh 267/268/269 while the scale at the gym says I weigh 263/264. This is really bothering me, at first the difference was only 1-2 pounds and now its 3-5 pounds. I had first started off…

What scale is more accurate?
So I have been weighing myself at the gym and it tells me I weigh about 267, I also went to the doctor and got the same reading.
