low calories, working out- but the scale is stuck!
I have been eating small protions of healthy food- not more than 1200 a day. I have been working out 30-60 mins at least 5 days a week. I lost 5 lbs then the scale stopped moving! What to do??? Thanks

does it matter where calories come from?
If I stick to low calories and work out does it matter where the calories come from? In other words- can I have as much carbs as I want as long as I stick in my calorie range or do I need to do something else to see weight lose? Thanks

Extreme Fat Smash
Has anyone done the extreme fat smash diet? I am on day 3 and so far it isn't horrible! I am mainly doing it to get used to eating small protions and hopefully finally get rid of these 10 pounds I have been working on for over a year! I know after it will be healthy meals and small protions or I will put it all back on.…

20 pounds + no smaller pants= sad :(
Okay- I officially lost 20 pounds since last August. I look better, feel bette, and don't run away from the pool like it is full of zombies any more. But, I can still wear the 'fat pants' I had to buy at this time last year. I want to go down in sizes not just on the scale. I don't carry a scale around to make myself feel…

Oceans=skinny!
Well I just got back from my week visiting family in Florida. I was motivated to lose some weight before I left. BUT man- I need to live by the ocean.

Can eating under 1200 calories really stop weight loss?
Hi- I am frustrated and confused! I recently started to be serious about losing all this weight I have put on. I stopped pigging out and dropped a few pounds. Then I started working out 30-45 minutes 5-6 days a week. I went through a period where I wasn't eating much- small meals all day. They were only totaling around 900…
