Steps calories always ZERO
I have messed around so much with this and tried enabling and disabling everything. I've turned off the steps, synced, and tried again. Yet today finally I realized it tracks my steps but will not give me calories burned. I haven't inputed any other exercise. I'm walking only. Why?

iPhone steps and calories burned?!
Do you guys understand more about why the iPhone erases your step calories? Here's a photo: My iPhone tracks my steps and with work all day I generally will step at least 6,000... but the calorie adjustment confuses me. It's always incredibly low. And if I put my elliptical workout, the walking calories will actually…

Why are TDEE calc results so different?
Each calculator online for TDEE gives me too many different answers. Scooby calc says my TDEE is around 2600. IIFYM says around 2170 (That seems low for someone who works out daily and has a high BMI - that would mean at my goal weight I can't each very much to maintain.....)That is an insane difference in TDEEs. Anyone…

Dropping shirt sizes?!
I do a solid mixture of both cardio and strength training. But I seem to improve more on the lower half than the top. My but and thighs change a lot but my arms seem to just build muscle under the fat and stay big! If I'm really trying to focus on my upper half getting smaller and not necessarily stronger, can I not work…

Ladies: Did you lose your boobs!?
Has anyone who was flat chested/A-cup, then gained and got boobs, and then lost the weight, kept any of the fat in your chest from when you gained? I gained 55 pounds, and got some solid B-cups in the process. When I was an A-cup, I weighed 120. Now I've lost about 25 pounds and still like my breasts, sitting at 153 lbs.…

No change in 18 days?
I'm 5'4'', 155 lbs. Been using MFP and working out since this past September. I usually manage to lose between 1-2 lbs a week. I exercise hard daily and I'm always at a deficit. But for the past 18 days my average calorie intake was about 1690. After those 18 days, I dropped .4 lbs only. This has never happened. My…

BMI: normal range vs overweight range
I am still not in the healthy weight range according to those BMI calculators. At 5'4'' I'm about 10 pounds away from 145 which is the top of my normal range. Anyone have experience entering back into the normal range? How did it make you feel? Could you tell you were looking like your old self again? I've lost about 20…

Ladies: Gaining before period??
I am not expecting my period for AT LEAST 6 days. Maybe even 7 or 8. But today I weighed in and was far from my expected weight (like so off). I know about fluctuation. But is a 3 pound gain 6-8 days before your period normal? I've been steadily losing. Today was weigh-in day and I know it should be lower. I couldn't…

When did your arms change?
I'm steadily losing inches all around. But my arms are my least favorite thing to wait for. I'm 5'4'' and they are about 12.6 inches around. Pretty large for me. And they stick out. They're chubby and the fat is just staring me in the face. Here's what they look like Women who have reached their goal weight..... When did…

Do you lose the same amount each week?
1 week I lose what I expected. The next, it's less.... But yet I haven't changed a thing. Does this just happen? It never happened to me before when i lost my first 15 pounds (that loss was consistent week by week). Trying to lose 25 more.

Losing inches? I want photos!
I understand you can't spot reduce. But I want to know when I can expect to look good in shirts again. My arms at 158 and 5'4'' are just too big. I wanna look good in a medium size top, not chubby. Anyone have photos or success stories when they noticed they'd lost size from their arms? I wanna see what losing an inch…

Calorie goal to lose 2 lbs/week?
I've been using myfitnesspal for a while and I have had great success in shedding some pounds when I'm dedicated. I hit the gym for about 60-70 min a day and I love it. I pair that with about 1350 to 1400 cals a day. I log everything (food and exercise). When I do this and I hit "complete my entry" I usually am told I will…

3 week difference!
Just a little motivation for myself and anyone out there on their first week. This was 3 weeks of strength training and cardio almost every day. Counting calories, still drinking, still eating sugar. Just keeping it around 1500 cals on my days where I workout for an hour to 70 min. I'm 5'4", was 171 in first picture and…

MFP today's calories burned: accurate?
Wondering about this calories burned estimate MFP gives us. Is this what it thinks I burned today with exercise? And if so, is this what I use to make my deficit? 500-1000 cals less than this number? I want to aim for 2 lbs a week. But mostly trying to lose inches. I may not be eating enough at 1500.. ?

When should I look for results?
Hi guys. I'm staying consistent, I'm good at counting my calories, and I'm a hard worker at the gym. I strength train, I love my squats, my push ups, and all that. But it's only been 2 weeks since I last decided to push myself into the consistency. I'm looking to transform my body, lose inches, lose jeans sizes, look…

On the right track to lose a size or two?
Hi there! I'm 21 years old, about 5'5'' and I'm guilty of gaining a great amount of weight in a pretty short amount of time. I used to be about 120 lbs my entire life and then went up to about 175 for a good portion of last year. After limiting my calories back in April I made it to 166 and have been stuck here ever since…
