Alcohol
So how does alcohol affect weight loss? I haven't drank since I started my diet/lifestyle change but am under some stress and just feel like a drink or a few to calm my nerves.

New Battle
My new battle after joining this site and logging my meals and snacks is that I look at everything as fat, calories, and carbs. I know this isn't all bad but I am not entirely sure that this is a healthy behavior either. I don't want to eat so many foods, some that are even good for you or even necessary like milk...Its…

Stress
Just Venting question below... I have had it with my current employer he called me at 1030pm last night to give me my job for today.

Kicking my weight loss in to high gear
I really want to kick my weight loss into high gear. Is it better to get in two 1hour cardio workouts or is it ok to just do 2 hours of cardio all at once? I also lift weights M W F, however I try to do cardio all 7days of the week. Thanks

cardio
Is it possible to do to much cardio in a day? I guess what I am asking at some time does it become ineffective or no more beneficial then what you have already done?

Heart Rate Monitors
I would like to get a heart rate monitor that will give me actual calories burned through out the day/ or workout. I don't like the seemingly exaggerated mfp calories and the machines being so different in calories burned. I also like to play racket ball and have no idea what I am actually burning. I also am a carpenter…

Fun day to be at the gym
I was at the gym today people watching. The gym put out a large bowl of candy, chocolate ect... It was hilarious watching the people walk by it and look keep walking and then go back. I even saw a women walk up to it slow look around and then grab a handful for her pocket. If that wasn't enough fun some guy fell asleep on…

daily calories
I am continually (always) under my calorie goal, yet I am not hungry, seems wrong to eat just to get the calories. Am I wrong to not eat? example today my net calories (after exercise) are at 738 my total is just over 1200, I am a carpenter so my calories left 1600 are and I don't want to eat, I am not hungry.

Some times you have to put your self first...
So I started this whole, life change thing about 40 days ago, after thinking about it for over the past few years. I was heavily involved in my church which ate up a ton of my free time, as I am not one to say no to helping anyone. I backed off of a lot of what I did to make some time for me, and my family. I started going…

Resting my body or Push through the pain?
Hey my fitness pals, I am looking for your feedback. I am 320 pounds and joined the gym about 1 month ago and have been losing weight.
