Those of you with 100 (or around that number) to lose
I just readjusted my goal to lose 101 pounds total. I'm 5'8" and have started using a pedometer to help me not stop moving until I reach 10,000 steps a day or more. I also dabble with weights ranging from 5 to 35 pounds. So I changed my settings also to say that I am 'active' and it upped my calories to 2020! That's crazy…

Which do you trust - MFP or mapmywalk
according to mapmywalk I have burned 146 calories. It's linkEd with this account, and according to MyFitnessPal I've only burned 53 - with the same amount of steps. So does MyFitnessPal under exaggerate or does MapMyWalk over exaggerate? Because that's almost a 100 calorie difference which is pretty big! If it was just off…

Finally!!
Stepped on my scale this morning - 199.8 I could of cried. I feel so stupid for being this excited about getting out of the 200's, but seriously I have been working my butt off and stuck between 205 and 207 for weeks. Then all of a sudden I'm losing tons of weight (plateau is over!) and I'm so happy. 199..never thought I…

Snailing along here...what helps motivate you?
I am losing weight so slowly. .1 here. .2 there. I can't believe how slowly I'm losing. I just keep trying to tell myself if I give up I will regret it and that any loss, no matter how small, is better than a gain. It all will add up in the end, right? If you're a slow loser what motivates you to stay focused?

When someone can't have kids
According to my soon to be ex husband; my inability to have anymore kids is going to make it hard for me to maintain another relationship and I'll be lucky if I ever find another man to marry me. I willingly can't have anymore kids (my tubes are tied) and I already have 2 kids. I want to know though, when you are looking…

Diabetics - low carb diets? New to this (kind of)
I had gestational diabetes with 2 of my pregnancies, including my last one. I have been feeling horrible lately so my doctor had me get blood work to see if my thyroid was acting up or if my gestational diabetes had turned into type 2. Well, my thyroid is fine but I was diagnosed with diabetes. I was able to control my…

GPS Walk/Run Apps
I use an app called MapMyRun and according to it walking 0.82 miles in 15 minutes and 47 seconds at an average speed of 3.1 mph burned a total of 113 calories. That just seems too good to be true. The app does ask for your weight and height and gender which makes me think it might be a tiny bit accurate, but burning 113…

Way below your calories?
What do you do when you haven't ate enough? I slept in big time today and now I'm way under. Its after 8 pm and I'm over 500 under my 1200 a day limit. Should I just say oh well? Eat something big? What do you do?

Ladies - Probably a stupid question
Do you weigh yourself when you're on your period? I started this morning and was a pound heavier than last week. Now I'm thinking maybe I should just stay away from my scale until I'm off it. This is my first postpartum period since giving birth 8 weeks ago so I could be on it for awhile. What do you ladies do? Weigh…
