Looking for Encouraging Friends!
Hey everyone! :3 I've been sluggish with keeping up with my food diary, and I've just started regularly exercising again, (save for the past two weeks, unfortunately -- I have the flu!) Anywho, I've lost nearly fifty pounds so far in my weight loss stretch, and I've managed to maintain my current weight for a year without…

Plateau Issues?
I started dieting about two years ago, and in the span of a year, I lost roughly fifty pounds. Last year, I was engrossed in my last year at university and a lot of stress, so I only maintained my weight. Since September, I've joined a spin class and a TRX class in an effort to begin regularly exercising more often again,…

TRX Training?
Hello guys! :3 I just took my first class in TRX training on Monday, and my muscles are still aching. Does anyone else do TRX training? How do you log it? Any advice for a newcomer? Also, if anyone cares to share, what sort of results have you seen since starting TRX? I haven't been exercising much for the past year, so…

Sweets under 100 calories?
Anyone have any suggestions for sweet treats under 100 calories? I generally crave chocolate amongst other sweets when I get stressed out, which tends to happens a lot. (Broke college student.) Anyone haveany suggestions for sweets under 100 calories? Healthy ones, or semi-healthy ones I suppose, are preferred, but I do…

Tea = Water?
Hello everyone, I've got a strange question for you! I've been drinking a lot of tea lately, and I don't mean iced tea like Arizona brand or something of the sort, I just mean hot water with a tea bag in it. My recent favorite has been Trader Joe's Ruby Red Chai, and this just happened to pop into my head today: Can hot…

Super Cheap Healthy Meals
Anyone have any healthy, cheap meals they want to share? I know certain ingredients like fresh and frozen produce are cheap, but I can never think of anything really yummy to make. I'm a sucker for natural, organic stuff. And I'd love to start cooking again, being on summer break and all. Feel free to share, I'll post up…

Ballet Beautiful?
Has anyone ever tried Ballet Beautiful? I just ordered the DVD off of Amazon for close to five dollars, so I figured I can't lose either way. By the DVD I specifically mean Ballet Beautiful: Total Body Workout. I think it sounds interesting because I've always thought ballet was amazing, though I'm pretty sure the DVD…

Am I in starvation mode?
I've noticed that I haven't been losing any more after some initial weight loss. So, I decided to look at a chart for how many calories I should be eating weekly, instead of just daily. After logging in the first three days of this week, plus all of my stats and my exercise included, it says I need to eat 2077 calories…

Won't Budge
I've been working out since June and I joined MFP in July. To be honest, I'm really proud of my progress. I don't track weight, but I do track my measurements. I'm more concerned with fat loss than weight loss. I've gone down 5 inches from my stomach, 5 inches from my bust, and 4 inches from my hips. I've been feeling…

One Piece Serving Size?
So I bought Bean Bread in a brand called Dokil Bakery. It is a small plastic package filled with the bread. The serving size says 1 piece is a serving. The servings per container is left blank. I assume that this means the bread I bought is considered 1 piece, but when I look it up on MFP it says 1 piece or 1 container for…

Not to be gross, but...
As the topic says, not to be gross, but if you throw up not long after a meal do you still count the calories? I got a little sick this morning after eating breakfast. About an hour afterwards. Sorry for the weird question, but any advice?

Dead Metabolism?
So, I try to reach my goal for calories every day, which is 1300, but sometimes I fall a little short. Even when I work out, I usually only eat 1300 calories., which I now know is not good and I have to eat back some of my calories so I don't fall into a really big deficit. Anyway, I don't eat that much because I don't…

Food Calories & Exercise Calories
Hi everybody! I actually confused myself a little since I've started dieting, and so I figured I'd turn to you all. I aim for 1300 calories daily, which MFP says is about right. I usually eat the same amount when I work out, even though I know I'm burning calories. So I wanted to ask, is it bad for me to not be eating back…
