Losing Calories While Sleeping?
How many people out there calculate how many calories they burn while asleep? Suppose you take a nap during the day, do you count it? Do you count sex? How do you know what calories to count and which ones to not count? I haven't been counting them myself, just very curious as to if I should or not. If so I'm severely…

What kind of machine is this?
And how do I log it? Any help? I've seen people calling it an abdominal crunch machine. I've been logging it as a rowing/canoeing machine but I don't think that is right... I'm VERY new to doing exercises so I don't know how to log them very accurately. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHsmE5zd7jU

Having trouble hitting calorie goal
Here lately it's been hard for me to hit 1,200 calories which is like the minimum calories a day you should eat for it to be healthy for your body. So my question is: Is it okay if I don't hit that as long as I'm eating when I'm hungry? Is it okay to not hit that? Should I be forcing myself to hit 1,200 when I'm not hungry?
