Shoulder Pain
Hey all, First of all, a disclaimer: I know I should go to the doctor, and I will, just have some time before I get there. Anyway, a while ago (maybe 1-2 months) I hurt my shoulder doing (I think) overhead dumbell presses. Now, I cannot throw a baseball without pain, nor lift even a 20# weight in a press above my head. I…

Pepsi!!
My wife and I bought a 12-pack of the throwback Pepsi (made with real sugar!) for our 4th of July Party. I had an ice cold can the other night after doing some yardwork, and it was wonderful! It brought me back to my childhood, when I drank it all the time. Then, I remembered that I was a fat child and teen. Then I…

Well, this is a little disheartening!
Wednesday's are my weigh-in day. Step on the scale today, same time as always (wake up, before breakfast), and I have gained 6 pounds since last week. Now, I have been at my goal weight (or, within a pound either way) for about 3 weeks. This past week, I did nothing different from any others. I had 2 days where I had a…

Exercise Calories and Different MFP Activity Levels
Not sure if this is the right board...but... I have been adding my cardio calories in and eating them back. My fitness level, as some have suggested, is set at Sedentary; therefore, it stands to reason that any exercise calories that aren't put back in to my body might push me into starvation. BUT...if I change my fitness…

Goal Met, then "un" Met!
Hey All... Met my goal of 25#'s lost last week. Weighed in, as usual, this morning, and low and behold, I gained 4.5 #'s. I know this happens, and in fact the opposite has happened where I have lost a large amount in a 1 week period, but it is quite disheartening when it is a gain. When do you all consider yourself at your…

Met Goal?
Hey all.. I met my goal of 25lbs lost with my weigh in this week. My question involves maintenance. Would you all suggest 2 consecutive weigh-ins at goal weight before switching to maintenance? Or just switch immediately. It's not a huge bump in calories, maybe 200. Just a thought, not really that big of an issue (I hope!)

Odd or not?
Hey all...I have been tracking on MFP for about about 2 months now. I have been tracking faithfully, with a few days that I didn't track at all (Thanksgiving being one). Anyway, I weighed in today, and I was 5 lbs lighter than last WEEK (for a total loss of 10lbs over the 2 months). I was pretty on spot with my daily…

Motivation
Hey All - I used to be (as in within 1 year) pretty big into running. Around 50 miles a month, give or take. Fast forward 1 year later, and I just lost any desire to run, or really do any kind of exercising. I will go for a day or two, then not do anything for a week or more. Weight wise, I'm probably up about 10 lbs since…
