Help
Alright guys. I've never been happy with my weight, but as of right now, I am by far the heaviest I've ever been. I have always been on and off of some kind of diet or exercise plan, but then I fall off. Although I don't look completely obese, I am. And although I've always loved that I have some curves, now I'm hating…

8 hour window verses breakfast?
I'm a breakfast person, I have a shake (Herbalife) every morning as I get ready for work (at about 6:30). I work as a teacher as a daycare so am on my feet most of the day.

Lifting and calorie consumption, help please?

Weights and back problems, help please?
I have a pretty bad back, and ankles and knees and everything else really ha.

Good groceries for a picky eater? Help?
Not for me, I'm not picky at all really. BUT my boyfriend would like to start eating more healthy with me since he has never been great at it in the past.

Thoughts on spinning.. please?
I have a spinning bike in my home (was my moms). I hear good things and bad things about spinning. I enjoy it because it helps me burn some calories in my own place when I don't want to leave. But there are many people out there who say its just going to get you bulky. I don't use it for large amounts of times like some…

Love baking... recipes that aren't so unhealthy? Cookies are a favorite
I love baking. I adore the process and I have fun doing it! Most of the time that I bake things I give a majority to people, mostly my boyfriend and his roommates. But I know my boyfriend also wants to try to be more healthy and can't resist cookies that I bring him. So instead of not baking and not gifting him with yummy…

Confused about carbs..
So I'll keep it simple. I have no idea how many carbs I should limit myself to. My automatic chart on MFP set me up for 191 per day, but when searching online it says a normal person should be eating 100-150 to maintain weight. (Btw, wanting to lose, not maintain) If anyone who has knowledge on the subject could help me…

How much exercise is too much?
I don't think I have been working out too much at all, but my boyfriend thinks I have been and doesn't want me to get "addicted to it". I tend to work out about an hour, doing weights and cardio every morning, then I might go again at night sometimes. I feel good when I do!! But after my dads death I remember my counselor…

How can you "not like breakfast?"
I hear people say it all the time! I LOVE breakfast, I feel empty without it! I used to not eat breakfast, but once I got into a habit of it, I NEED it! But I never said I didn't like breakfast..just that I didn't eat it. So whats up? Are those people just eating really crappy foods? Do you love your breakfast or "not like…

Drinking too much water?
My stomach feels like I ate a whole buffet plus dessert, but I actually just drank a lot of water. I know, there will be somebody out there who says "Well stop drinking that much water then!" <-- if thats you, just don't reply. Thanks :) I am wondering if this happens to anybody else and how they ease their stomach when it…
