How often do you weigh yourself?
Hi everyone. I typically weigh in a couple of times a week but I'm trying to cut down since I feel I've become a little too focused on fluctuations. How often do you all weigh in, or what works best for you? Thanks in advance :)

your take on low-carb diets
I managed to gain almost 5 lbs over the course of the last few (congrats to those of you who didn't gain during the holidays :) ), and I really would like to get it off relatively quickly.

Do you eat/crave more when you wake up earlier?
I wake up at 4 am two days a week and on those days, I find that I've already consumed 1000 calories by two PM. Even though I exercise to increase how much I can eat, being in the 1000s by 2 pm just doesn't feel right given that I'm usually at roughly 500 by then. Do you all think it's okay to eat that much over the span…

Gained back weight and feeling down
I know it happens to slip-up sometimes, but I lost 1.2 lbs last week, and I'm up 1.4 this week, so all of it plus a teeny bit more. Any suggestions on staying motivated? I feel like I'm in a slump because I know I'm lacking the consistency I need and recently just have not been able to stick to anything. I would really…

New and wanting to lose 10 lbs
Hi everyone ! I'm new to MyFitnessPal and I'm joining to lose ten lbs that I've managed to gain over the course of the last few months. I'm trying to maintain lean mass while cutting fat, and I eventually want to focus on muscle growth, but that's later down the line. I'm hoping this helps! :smile:
