IIFYM
Does this sound right? I'm 5'4 194 pounds. I changed my goals to fit the IIFYM and I'm over in carbs already. I set my goals to 1552 calories, 5% Carbs, 50% Protein, 45% Fat, 49g Fibre. It's okay if I have to lower my carbs, but does that number seem low? GRAMS per day - Carbs 27 Protein 194 Fat 77.6 Fibre 39-49 Thanks for…

I've started incorporating weight training to my schedule and I want to see results and not hurt myself.

I also walk about…

lol. I want more friends that know exactly what they are doing and how they are doing it. People that will give me advice and are active on MFP.

Heavy Lifting - Women - starting tomorrow
I'm onto week 7 and not losing weight, but lost some inches and feel great. I've been doing a lot of circuit training with my trainer and tomorrow she is changing it up completely.

Body Fat Scales - Are they for real?
What's the deal on these scales that measure your body fat/muscle etc with waves. I have one.. but does it just do the calculations on what you input, or can it really tell what your percentages are?

Fat loss - Muscle Gain

(maybe this is a question for her and yes, I'm just starting out) When you are 196 pounds, what should your calorie intake be? I don't think 1200 is very healthy when you are burning at least 500 calories a day in just excersise. I…
