I hate weight fluctuations!
I was busy yesterday, so I ate 100 calories less than I usually do...and this morning I weighed 2 pounds more than I did yesterday! GRRR! Even though I know in my head that I did not gain 2 pounds of fat in the last 24 hours, and that weight fluctuations are normal, I still hate seeing a higher number on the scale!…

They don't fit! NSV
I have recently lost 23 pounds, and I am getting really close to my goal weight.

Switching goal to .5 loss per week?
I am 29, female, 5'3, with a "lightly active" lifestyle, and a goal of losing 1lb per week. 3 months ago I was 150 lbs, and MFP gave me a calorie goal of 1360. It worked out great! I lost 10 lbs in the first 2 months, but then the 3rd month my weight lost started to slow down. I realized it was because I had never let MFP…
