Puking...can I add those calories back in? ; )
I am so sick & so hungry, but it won't stay down & I want to whine to someone!! I want to eat my calories!!! As upset as I am that my son is sick (and has been vomiting for 4 days!) and now I'm sick even though I tried to be vigilant about washing my hands, cleaning the house, etc...I'm pretty pissed that I can't even get…

I figured my TDEE...why SO different from MFP calories??
I am 37 yrs old, 5'7, 172 lbs, mother of 4. I am exhausted all the time...sometimes I work out, sometimes I don't. I feel like I run in circles. MFP has my calories set at 1550 (losing 1 lb a week). I calculated my TDEE & it came out to 2482. If you take away the 20% for weight loss, it leaves me with 1985 calories. That's…

Wheat Belly anyone??
So my mom was telling me about the book "Wheat Belly" and I read a ton of the reviews on Amazon. I'm torn on this one...has anyone gone "wheat free" and were able to maintain that? I was sad just thinking I could never eat a dinner roll again. Overall I think most foods "in moderation" is a fine thing...I just have a…

I fell off the wagon : /
I haven't been logging for the last couple weeks and of course gained a few pounds...it just seems so ridiculous that it takes TONS OF WORK to lose a pound, but in no time flat I can gain the weight back! I am trying to just "start again" but it's so hard, I get so burnt out so easily! Blah...I'm also SO sick of being fat!…

Hurt knee doing lunges? Help!
I have been doing 30DS and I think my form was poor on the lunges and my knee went past my foot (I have zero strength in my core) and I guess I injured my knee b/c I cannot do jumping jacks, jump rope, or side lunges anymore. I feel pain when I walk up the stairs, but it's not horrible or anything. I keep taking a few days…

How the heck did I hurt myself doing 30DS...what now?
I was on day 3 of the 30DS and I noticed when I did jumping jacks the leg, below the knee, would hurt, it felt weirdly "twisted". I took 3 days off due to it being my 2 days off for the weekend & then I was sick the 3rd day. I also figured maybe my leg would be fine by then. I didn't notice any pain until I did jumping…

Mystery solved! I figured out 30DS!
I figured out why 30DS works so well! You can't freaking walk to the fridge anymore!! Owwwwwwww! :laugh: Day 1 kicked my butt...I dread moving today. But I will keep it up, it feels like it will definitely produce results! I took before pics last night, can't wait to take "after" pics!! BTW- I love/hate Jillian Michaels!…

8 glasses of water or 8 CUPS of water?
When MFP has you log your water for the day...are we talking 8 glasses, CUPS or what? I know it's not that important to know exactly, but I am just curious how many ounces they are suggesting? Thanks!

How often do you REALLY weigh in?
I know MFP says to weigh once a week...however I weigh in everyday. I can't help it!! LOL I have to!! Usually more than once a day :embarassed:

Anyone ever use the ItWorks! wraps or similar?
I have a friend who swears by these things, the problem is, she also sells them. So I don't feel like I can get a good idea of if they work and how they work from her. It seems silly to think it would actually make you lose inches of what, I don't know. Water? Obviously a wrap isn't going to remove fat, but yet I'm…

I got to eat my fav. brunch & steak dinner!!!
I'm so excited! I thought today was going to be a super bad "cheat" day b/c I decided that I cannot give up my Sunday brunch I make for my family. I did modify it though, instead of fried potatoes, I made fruit cocktail and I skipped the toast completely,because really, who cares about toast?:laugh: Then, because I figured…

I was to lose it the RIGHT way (for once!)
In my late teens I would run as a punishment to myself (weird, I know)...I would tell myself negative things to push myself forward. (looking back, at 125lbs & 5'7", I didn't need to lose anything). In my late twenties, after the birth of my twins, I did WW with NO exercise and lost 45 lbs. I was underweight at that point,…

Do you eat your exercise calories back?
I don't understand why you are supposed to eat your exercise calories back? Isn't that the whole point of exercising, to burn off those calories?

Worried about keep it off before I even lose any !?
After I had my twins in 2002 I lost 40ish pounds on WW. Eventually I got so sick of counting points that I quit, then had 2 more pregnancies...and now I am back to the original weight I was back in 2002. My youngest is over 2 years old, so this is not baby weight. However, I almost am scared to even go through all the work…
