pregnancy and MFP?
My husband and I are going to try for another baby. Has anyone used this site while pregnant? Even though I'm not at my pre preggo weight yet (130 I'm now 142), I think we still might start trying soon. Anyway, with Kayden I gained 50 pounds.

Ok, so....I've been on this site since June. I've worked out 6 times a week, ate all my exercise calories, watched my salt, drank tons of water, and watched my carbs. I've lost 3 lbs. I only have 10 to loose, but I really want to loose inches. My inches have been the same. So, then I mixed my worksouts up a bit. I've ton…

calorie question
So I was talking to my husband about how many calories I need to eat per day to loose 1 pound per week. Then we looked up him. Then (on a different site) I looked up myself and it said that I need to eat about 1400 calories per day to loose 1 pound, on MFP it says 1200?! So doesn't your body go into starvation mode if you…

Is anyone only jumping on the scale every couple of weeks? I think that I'm going to start doing this because I have such a small amount to loose that there are some weeks that I haven't lost anything (in fact gained):noway: This causes me to get really upset and thus I eat more! Plus, I've had 2 bad weekends (4th of July…

question for calories for the week
Does anyone know how I can see how many calories I have consumed for the week? I can see how many calories I have burned under the exercise tab, but was wondering if I can see how many total calories I've had. I guess I could add them all, but thought maybe their was a tool or something. Thanks!

that's something right?
So this is week number 2 for me. The first week I lost 3 lbs, this week so far stayed the same. I only have 10 pounds total to loose so I'm sure it's going to take a little longer, but I know it's better that way because it will stay off! Anyway, I took my measurements and I've lost 2 inches in my waist and 1 in my hips!…

Love going on vacation BUT....
It so messes me up! It's super hard to eat healthy when you are on vacation. I still think I did pretty good, but was not able to get in any work out time ( I have a 1 year old running around with no one to watch). I did my best to log everything, but I'm sure I missed some stuff. I hope I can get in some good work out's…
