I have no idea what to set my activity level to??
I'm a housekeeper at a hotel and I'm on my feet for about 6-8 hours a day with only a stop for lunch. I lug around a big cart with tons of sheets and towels, scrub bathrooms, make beds with heavy blankets, dust, vacuum, etc. I'm EXHAUSTED when I get home from work and I had my activity level set to the third option which…

I am having trouble balancing my macros?
I am not following the recommendations on here because I'm following my trainers instructions instead. Starting 3 days ago he wants me to eat 200 carbs, 100 g of protein, and 30 g of fat everyday but I'm having a lot of issues getting those correct. He said that I could be +/- 5 g of each macro. Today I hit my protein and…

How do you stay on track?
I've been really slacking lately after a really good run and damn near 20 lbs lost. I've still been conscious of what I'm eating but I've been more in the 1700-1800 range instead of my recommended 1200. I haven't gained but I'm having so much issue getting back on track. What helps you stay completely focused and…

Worried about how I'll look after I lose the weight?
I'm going from 225 to 150 so we're talking 75 pounds. The areas I'm most worried about is thighs, arms, and to be completely honest the genital region. Will I have a lot of excess skin around the thighs and upper arms? And this might be TMI but I don't really know where else to ask this, but I have like a pouch of a mons…

Beneficial to eat small amounts of high calorie foods...
to help learn portion control? Not necessarily sweets, but things like meats and cheeses and stuff like that or do you think that you can learn better health habits even if you only consume large amounts of low calorie foods? Example: I have a binging issue and I know I need to work past it, but usually I fill my days up…

How should I log in the exercise I get from work?
I don't imagine its a big deal but I'm having trouble staying in my calories because when I get off work I'm super hungry and I already ate my days calories before work and I hate eating afterwards because I get off at like 2 a.m. I work 6 hours a day for about 5-6 days a week in a fast food joint and I am constantly…

Am I setting Weight Loss Goal too low?
I'm 5'10" and 220 lbs. and I was going to shoot for 165 which is what I thought I was supposed to weigh but after doing some looking around and doing some BMI calculators its saying I should shoot for like 130-140. At first I guess I was a little worried about trying to go that low but maybe its because I've always been…

I feel extremely hungry?
My diary is public so if you could check it out and tell me why I'm so starving?? I think it might be because of the sandwich, I think bread makes me crave but I'm not completely sure yet because I've been craving all day and normally I don't. I even exercised today so I could eat more and I exercised right before lunch. I…

Should I go low-carb or stay low-fat?
I am doing low-fat right now but I have to say that low-carb seemed to be easier for me to follow, however, I don't really know how I can follow a low-carb with a mostly vegan diet (I slip up occasionally). I used to eat meat, eggs, butter, etc so is it even possible for me to do low-carb at this point?

Already Ate Too Much Sugar?
Okay so according to my tracker, my sugar intake took me to a -14 amount because of JUST my breakfast while it says that I can eat 48 grams of fat today? I'm allotted 1550 max calories a day but I'd like to stick to the 1200 amount, and my breakfast was a green smoothie. If I ate 48 grams of fat it would put me at like 36%…

Hey everyone! Back again...
Well I made my account about 7 months ago and just never visited again. I have since lost 25 lbs since my last reported weigh in on here, but the reason I'm back is because I actually had lost a lot more than that, but gained it back via taco bell. So here I am and I'm definitely looking for people to toss ideas around…
