Overeating on days off (night worker)
I work nights and do awesome on those days. I stay perfectly in my calorie goals. I've lost 39lbs so far and am still losing but it's slow because I'm off 3 nights a week and I eat out of boredom. I don't want to wake my kid up so I sit in the living room watching Netflix all night on low volume. I can't leave the house so…

Gaining weight without injesting anything?
Ok, so it doesn't really matter, I'm just curious about how it works. I can weigh in the morning then an hour later weigh again and have a higher number despite not eating or Drinking anything. Like I said, it's not anything I'm worried about as I trend down weekly, just thought it's weird how it happens like that every…

Is this enough?
I can't get my steps up to 10000 per day. My job is causing weight loss simply because I went from very sedentary to pretty darn active. I work in a tower.

Can too much sodium ruin your diet?
I've never watched my sodium intake as I've never had high blood pressure. I'm sure before starting this I ate a lot more sodium than I do now, but even still i'm apparently eating over 1000 over my daily budget budget MFP suggested. I'm below my calorie budget but I've read about water retention, but even with that, with…

Difference in calorie counters
I used to be on Lose It! and I came over here because I'm able to put in my measurements and keep track of them as well as weight, which I find most important. I do prefer Lose It's food log as it's easier, but like I said, body measurements are important. Anyway I started my goal and the difference between what it says I…
