Obsession
I started a fitness game to lose weight and have been really successful in the last couple months. Down 9 pounds since July 1. Yay! One problem: I am obsessed. Help!!! I jump on the scale several times a day, I freak out every time I eat something that isn't part of my plan, and I beat myself up if I don't lose any weight…

Activity Level
How do you decide what activitely level you are at when setting your profile up? I have been on a while and have set myself up as lightly active since I work out a lot but also sit at a desk all day. I am not sure that is accurate because I work out 6 days a week and am always running around, except when at work. I tried a…

Afraid of fast and/or fried foods
I used to be a fried food junkie and would stop for fast food at least once a week if not more for the convenience. After my healthy style life style I started about a month and half ago, I am afraid to eat it because of what it would do to my digestive system. This is a huge feat for me since it used to be such a regular…

Too much protein?
I have begun the Body for Life program and it recommends protein shakes, bars, etc and eating 5 meals a day. I have actually lost weight - 2 pounds in two weeks! But when I enter my diet into the food tab, my proteins are way higher in comparison to my balance of carbs and fats. Is too much protein bad?

Do you all have any suggestions on how to avoid the evil green glow? I would avoid driving by one, but the stupid things are on every block. I hate drinking my…

Picky Eater
So I am the pickiest eater ever...pretty much boils down to, if a 5 year old would eat it, so would I. Unfortunately, things like pizza and tacos don't fall off the body like they used to. I hit my late 20's and it has all caught up to me. I have a poor diet and now I have to work out 6 days a week like a machine just to…

Need Inspiration
I am going to be a whiny pants for a minute. I have been working out like mad and eating 10 times better for almost a month now and am getting no where. I am trying not to give up, but it is really hard. My brain keeps going back to, I can weight this much and eat what I want and never work out so what is the point of…

New to Dieting and Already Frustrated
So I gained some weight in the last few years and went into major overhaul including joining this site. I stopped drinking soda, which I probably had 2-3 a day, I gave up drinking almost entirely, and I eat low-cal. I also work out 4-5 days a week at a pretty intense level. Yet in the last 3 weeks, I have lost absolutely…
