Please tell me how many calories to eat!!!
Please help me with what I should be eating to lose. Recently I have jumped from 1400 calories a day to just under 2000. I have read In Place of a Road Map and all sorts of other sites telling me what I should be doing. I am now terrified to step on a scale (my clothes feel tighter) and I am losing motivation. My stats are…

Making the jump from 1400 calories to almost 2000?! Yikes!!
I started with MFP in September. To date I have lost 8 lbs and gained a few back. I am terrified to weigh in again, I am afraid to know what the scale says. After reading IPOARM (In place of a road map), I now realize that what was suggested for calories a day may have been hindering my progress. I am 5’6” and weigh 168…

Stoves - Induction vs. Regular Electric?
Doing a kitchen remodel and I am looking at the Induction Ranges, the ones that heat only the pan or pot and not the whole element. Anyone have experience with this? I have read review after review but I need real reviews! LOL

Do you assume your invited? How do I handle this?
So, both my sisters (There's 3 of us) got a "Save the date" invite on FB with a request for addresses for a cousin of ours, except I didn't.

My body just hasn't received the memo yet....
I have been watching what I eat for almost 8 weeks. Not starving myself but eating 1380 calories a day. Exercising like a mofo (4-5 hours a week). I feel thinner, clothes fit better but no one has noticed and I have lost only 6 lbs which is less than a pound a week. I feel like I am losing momentum and fast. I don’t eat…

Who me?!! Second NSV!!!
So last week I was doing 45 minutes of cardio and I really stepped it up this week to an hour a day (Monday to Friday). We had a CPR/First Aid class today and we were talking about always being cold and the instructor turned to me and said "Its because you need a little meat on your bones". What? Me? The scale hasn't moved…

Mean and Spiteful People
Ok, I am baring my soul to you guys, please don’t judge me. I’m pretty easy going and can usually get along with most people, I know I’m not perfect and I do make mistakes. What I’m not prepared for (and no matter how many times I have to talk this certain volatile person) is another set back. I can be an emotional eater…

First NSV
Laying in bed last night and my husband says he likes how tight my stomach is looking. I've been using the Bowflex TreadClimber for 3 weeks now, Monday to Friday @ 45 minutes. Yay for progress! *Fist pump*

Looking for friends and motivation!!
I seem to get on track with a weight plan and when I find that its not working fast enough I jump ship for a better sounding one or give up altogether. I realize that the easiest way to do this is to keep focused, just keep going and celebrate the little pounds. If your in the same boat, add me!
