How do I reduce my body fat without losing weight? :s
I feel I don't look like how much I weigh.... I kind of know this is probably because I didn't do any sort of strength training during my weight loss and I ate quite a little amount for around a year so I probably lost quite a bit of muscle, I could barely open doors :p whilst losing weight I didn't think my lack of muscle…

Do I eat back all my exercise calories in maintenance ?
If I'm using Mfp's maintenance calorie recommendation rather than a TDEE calculator , do I eat back the exercise calories? I have it set to sedentary because my exercise is very random during the week ( some days fairly sedentary, some days a lot of walking ) ... It's set to 1650 + I'm 5''5 120lbs .

I love carbs... will they really get in my way?
Ok so I achieved my goal weight recently and I'm working on body composition now + working my way up to maintenance calories...

My hair is a lot thinner now :/
Before all my weight loss I had VERY thick long hair, I understand it's thinner now because I don't eat as much food as I used to.. obviously... but it's very fine and limp now and I've been trying to grow it long for nearly a year with pretty much no change in length (it's just above my chest) :( I'm only 3lbs away from…

Looking to add people on 1200 calories a day
I'm on 1200 calories a day, was for a majority of last year , however I had a bad December + my will power sort of flopped. Trying to get back into the swing of things, quite hard but would feel better if I had friends who consistently eat 1200 a day so I can stay motivated and get ideas :D

Oh good god I just binged
Ok... so the past few days I have been eating more, perhaps more than I have in a long time, I recently upped my calories to 1430 from 1300 ( ... let's say in the past year, I've mostly done 1200, went through a rough stage of 800, then 1000, then nothing, then 1200 again xD so 1430 is the highest since I started dieting,…
