I do not mind doing that, but I wanted to know, if you have alot of fat to burn, does doing too much cardio still burn muscle? I…

Why does weight drop unsteadily?

I will weigh myself throughout the week, like last week it was constantly 271/270 then for me, usually by Tuesday of the next week I will drop 2-3 pounds. I always happens like this for me too, I would think we would see our weight loss be steady,…

Getting picked on when dieting/exercising. /rant
Does this happen to any of you guys? For example, a friend sees you eating a cupcake or a candy bar and says "Aren't you supposed to be dieting? Blah blah blah" I keep in control what I eat and how much I eat, and exercise 5 days a week. Usually on the weekends I slip out of my 1200-1700 calories and eat 2000-2,500…

Sometimes I feel sick
So, basically sometimes I feel randomly sick, like nauseous, tummy twisters, and just uglyish. I don't really know what it could be. I'm eating 1500-1800 calories a day, mostly healthier food, for the most part. I exercise Monday-Friday, 1 hour cardio and then weights. I randomly get these little sick spells, sometimes…

Calories Ate/Burnt Confusion
My current calorie intake limit is about 1900 calories. I've been trying to stay within the 1200-1600 calorie limit per day though.

Hard to eat healthy
So, I started "dieting" again recently and exercising and for me dieting is just eating way less than what I was before. I exercise 5 days a week, and am within my calorie range about 98% of the time. My problem is, eating out. I come from a family who eats out everywhere and very very often, then when I hang out with my…

So I just started dieting 4 days ago and today I ate pizza, it was 4 slices and I feel terrible about it D: It was mushroom stuffed crust, I didn't exactly go over my calories today and I exercised as well but it feels as though I'm cheating already. When do you guys feel guilty about what you ate? And was it okay for me…
