I keep going over my fiber limit, ugh!
My daily goal says it should be around 23g of fiber but I always end up with 25-35. How much fiber do you consume? Now does this make a big difference, should I be worried? Or am I getting worked up over nothing? :P

I'm so frustrated.
Tomorrow will mark the start of my fifth week into diet and exercise and I'm about to just grab a bag of chips and call it a day. I'm almost 19, 5'10 / 250lbs. I exercise 5 times a week for 40-50 minutes, I eat 1,300-1,400cals a day, drink plenty of water, my sodium levels are under control, I log every single thing I put…

Want to start 30DS but have a little problem..
No problem getting the motivation to do it. However, I heard there's a lot of jumping and such involved which is a big no for me. I live in a condo on the second floor and if I start jumping the grumpy man downstairs will for sure hear it and complain if it persists.. I'm sure there's other exercises I can do when Jillian…

I'm so confused about how much pasta I should be eating?
I am THE WORST with numbers and very very confused with what amount is actually one serving. I've looked around on MFP and there have been threads about this but a lot of mixed comments. I just need a straight answer. This is what I'm eating, nutrition facts are there if you scroll down a bit:…

Having a hard time estimating how many calories I've burned.
Hey guys! I don't have the money for a heart rate monitor so I've been having trouble recording how many calories I burn a day. I just started three days ago and I've been working out for 45-60 minutes a day. First I do 30-45 moderate latin dance moves and finish off with 10 minutes of moderate cardio. I've looked around…

Music that keeps you motivated?
I'm sure this is posted often but I'm also sure I'm not the only one who's music taste changes on a weekly basis. So what kind of music keeps you pushing when you feel like nothings left? I myself prefer angsty music like Sevendust, SOAD when I feel like giving up. Headstrong by Trapt is always the generic go-to, too. As…

Hey guys! Starting over.
Hi all! I'm Aubree and I'm nearly 19 years old living in New York. A few years ago I fell into some sort of an ED, I lost weight but as predicted, I gained it all back AND some. So now I'm here again to do this the healthy way and keep this extra jello off! I'd love to surround myself with positive people who are doing…

Spent 30mins moving boxes.. I burnt 398 calories?
Yeah, okay. Everywhere I've gone on the internet says that I would have lost 300+ calories for merely moving boxes around for a half hour? Is this really right? If this is a bunch of bologna, what would be the range of calories actually burnt? The boxes were kind of heavy and I did sweat a bit, but I don't think it was 398…

A few questions before I jump into this.
I don't even know if this belongs here but I just wanted to ask a few questions before I get started! I'm 18, 5'10, 250lbs and I have stretch marks all over. stomach, hips, under my arms.. you name it. If I plan to lose 50lbs will I get excess skin? I know it's so stupid but that's what I'm most afraid of. I've read that…
