How did you break your plateau?
I hit one when I was at 164lbs and I remember one day I ate a lot of calorie dense food and went about 4000 calories over my net. Then the weight started falling off again. I can't get below 155.4lbs as of the last 5 weeks (my mini goal is 154lbs which puts me in a healthy weight range.. so close ugh). I started zigzagging…

Fitbit!
I was looking into getting the Flex because it seems to be a lot easier to wear on my wrist. Has anyone had any problems with it tracking arm movements or being inaccurate? Wondering if it's actually worth the investment just to get an estimate of how much I'm actually burning in a day. Edit: Also looked into the Jawbone…

20lb difference
I was on my old computer today and had found old pictures of me in the dress I had wore out this weekend. Before and after pictures put everything into perspective.

New to lifting
Not even sure where to begin. I just got my first gym membership, and my friend is going to show me how to use the machines tonight. As far as calories and such now - completely lost. I'm 5'6/female/20years/155.4lbs. How often should I lift and for how long? How often should I do cardio and for how long? How many calories…

Universal weight machine?
I wanted to start lifting, but I don't thave a gym membership. Would prefer not to get them but I have the space for a few things in my house. I've explored a few forums that don't really say much about universal weight machines, but always about Olympic bars or squat racks or benches. Also won't have anyone to spot me so…

Sugar??
I'm burning more calories today than I usually do so I'm eating them back. My sugar intake is higher because of the maple syrup. Will that affect my weight loss, and if so are there any alternatives for it? Diary is public.

Inputting chicken breast wrong?
I was using the data base to input my chicken breasts as there is nothing on package for the chicken that has the nutritional value. I thought it was wrong, so I looked it up on the website. Would it be better to enter a general chicken breast instead maybe? Below is the information from the website but the calorie count…

Over macros but under calories?
Doesn't seem to make sense, is there a calculation error somewhere by MFP or by inncorect data entry? Can anyone explain, and is it necessarily bad for me to be ogoing over? Diary temporarily public.

Dinner to meet my macros?
I like eating the same dinner consistently throughout the week. I was eating 100% whole wheat pasta with a store bought pasta sauce and chicken in it. I was advised against this, and told to switch it up and have a sweet potato or rice instead as a better option. My problem is that the rice is too plain. Wondering if…
