So how many calories AM I burning during my workout?
I'm very much aware that no one can actually answer that question accurately, but I just want a better ballpark range. I'm F, 5'6", SW:270, CW: 185, GW: 145. I've recently started working out on an elliptical machine for an hour everyday, and if I had to make a guess, I'd estimate that I keep a steady heart rate of 140.…

How am I doing?
Call 555... Just kidding. Actually, I just wanted to ask for people's opinions on my diary? It should go back at least like... 29 days. So don't worry about flakiness. Are there any redundant foods that you see that you shouldn't see?

Questions about you and your Cheat Days.
1) How would you define a cheat day? Would a cheat day for you be "don't worry, don't track it, no boundaries", or is a cheat day any day you go over your daily intake by >100 calories, or >200 calories or so 2) How often do you have cheat days? Is it weekly, biweekly, monthly? Are they random? Do you have them at all? 3)…

Five pounds in 20 days?
I'll admit, I feel like I've really stepped up my eating habits since I decided to work at it again. Counting calories was a really big impact on the start of my weight loss journey last summer and I was really going at it, but the holidays hit me and I plateaued, and soon after gained a bit of it back. Now I'm back at it,…

Is there anything I'm doing wrong?
I just got back into MFP and calorie counting and exercising last week, and before I officially get into this mindset, I want to make sure there's nothing I'm doing wrong. I'm 19, I'm 5'6, and I weigh 270. I eat around 1500 calories a day (my diary is open if you can take a look); I've started exercising but I can only go…

How often do you check the scale?
This is just a poll / curiosity question for the people of MFP: How often do you check your scale? If it happens to be once a week, do you have a certain day you check your scale on?

Something healthy and easy I can make with ground beef?
I'm babysitting tomorrow and my sister pulled out some lean ground beef that I can use to my leisure, and I want to make something healthy with it! Any ideas? Easy as in no weird spices or veggies that I can only get at supermarkets or world markets. I'm limited to generic house hold foods that people generally always…

Is it bad to exercise at certain times of the day?
I always feel more motivated to exercise later at night, AFTER I've eaten the day's food. Is there something wrong with this?

Does anyone know a good lite Mac and Cheese recipe?
I love making mac and cheese but after I learned that my mac and cheese recipe is 700+ calories per serving, I figured it was time for a change. I've heard several different things, like people using fat free Greek Yogurt as a thickener, wheat pasta, etc. Does anyone else have any ideas?

I will ride that ride next year.
I'm Chandler, and I'm here because the other day for the first time I was kicked off a ride at an Amusement Park because I didn't fit. I always had a fear of that happening and it did. It was the ****tiest feeling ever. So, I'm changing my life. I'm also looking for more friends, for support, and I'll more than gladly…
