How do you get back on track after a day of indulgence?
So...I messed up bad today. I was home all alone and there was an entire bag of after dinner mints in the kitchen that just isn't there anymore. *looks down at tummy* Not just that, but I ate probably a good 3-4 granola bars and about half a personal sized pizza. ALong with what I would usually eat, which would be lean…

How many carbs should I eat?

I find that I'm gaining weight back!!…

BUT THATS A LOT OF FOOD HOLY COW!! Am I supposed to GROSS 1859 calories EVERYDAY I WORKOUT??…

Losing weight is soso confusing HeLP! ; (
Ok for starters I'm a 5'2 female and I weight 153. I would LOVE to be 120lbs. I work out from anywhere to 30 min to 2 hours a day and during that time it's expected that I can burn anywhere from eeeh 300-800 calories. For the last month or so the scale has NOT MOVED. Yesterday I discovered the scale wasn't moving because I…
