Weight maintaining, body fat % going up?
Per FitBit Smart scale. This has been the trend for a couple weeks now, I'm not hugely worried but it is a small concern. I've been in maintenance stage for a few weeks now which basically results in me eating more (averaging 2500 instead of 2000 or so) and consuming more junk food which I almost never did when I was…

Won my bet but the $$$ aint nothing compared to my hapiness (with pics)
It's funny for week I've been anticipating the day i'd make this post for reaching my goal/bet milestone and now I'm feeling a little bit dumb and shy at the idea of bragging about a 20kg/45 lbs loss. I know it's far from being the greatest achievement and there are far better achievements than mine in here but…

Starting to be concerned over my daily fluctuations :/
Alright, I weigh daily and I've learned better than getting worried about the odd gain overnight (waterweight blabla i know) but this is starting to worry me. Here are my latest weigh reports from last week (Those are in kilos so double them and a bit for lbs) And here is what is puzzling me : From Sunday to Thursday, I've…

Partying and health. Mission impossible?
Currently typing on a pretty bad hungover. After consuming probably just shy of 10,000 kcal in 2 days pre-party and post-party (junk food, lot of alcohol, pops mixed with alcohol, etc...) my confidence has reached an all-time low. I've been losing at a pace I'm very happy with and have dedicated the past 2 months to being…

Pros and cons of weighing daily vs weekly or monthly
I'm sure this debate happened a lot before but i'm new to the community part so I'd like to know. Personally I've heard that weighing daily is a bad idea because my mind gonna be all over the place if I do and that I should aim at a weekly frequency. Personally being a bit of a numbers nerd and all that I love following my…

Napping
Hello, I'm not very well documented on how sleep correlates with eating and health in general. I know it must matter some but i'm really not sure how and how much. Last couple months, I've been losing at a pace that i'm very happy with. It was summer and holiday so I could pretty much wake up when I wanted (most of the…

Lost 5 lbs in a day
I've recently posted about the pros and cons of weighing daily and since I got my FItbit scale I'm doing it daily but I used to weigh weekly before that. First couple days I've lost about 0.2 lbs a day which seems standard at a pace of 1lb/week lost. Today was my 4th or 5th day weighing in and i'm down 5 lbs even though it…

Tried having low-carb meals today
I'm normally a huge carbs eater. I love pasta and since I've been trying to lose weight I've cut both the frequency and amount of them. Been switching to rice a bit more, not great but seems better than pasta. And i'm sill eating bread regularly altho not too much. I would say i average ~200 grams of carbs per day. I've…

Am I counting my calories wrong ?
I think I do a good job at keeping track the food and quantity that I consume but something I never track are the little nutriments that are necessary to give taste ... such as pepper, salt, cream, butter, oil, etc... So for example I cook pasta and I will count everything but the salt in the boiling water, the oil in the…

Comment on my daily eating routine please
Hello, I've been trying to alter my eating habits that used to be really bad (I mostly didn't care) and play basketball on top of that to try to reach my goal of losing 20 lbs. The only thing is that up until very recently I was totally unaware of what's good and what's bad but now that summer is here and school is yet to…
