Sprintec and weight gain?
I would like to hear about anyone's experiences with this birth control. I just started taking it and I don't want to keep up this prescription if it's going to ruin my weight loss. Any answers would be great!

Septoplasty WITH rhinoplasty?
I have a deviated septum which makes it difficult to breathe sometimes and I get very very bad nose bleeds. My dad's really wanting me to consider getting a septoplasty because it's so bad. I'm talking nose bleeds that (TMI warning) are literally gushing for almost an hour. I have to keep my head hovered over a garbage can…

When you can't get full?
So normally my cals will keep me satisfied throughout the day, but sometimes it feels as if I haven't eaten in days. These times almost always put me over my cals for the day. I try to eat healthy, filling items, but no matter what I do it feels like I still haven't eaten anything. I call it a bottomless pit. Does anybody…

Maintain and then try to lose again?
Hi I have been trying to weight for a while but I've been at a plateau for a really long time. I usually eat around 1,500 calories a day (on average) and I'm wondering if my body just needs a break from trying. I also have 3 hr dance team practices 3 times/week and performances on weekends. And then I try to get to the gym…

Weight up but measurements the same?
Okay I've been trying to not let my weight get to me but I can't help it anymore. The other week my weight jumped 7 lbs in about a week to a week and a half (not quite sure which). The next day it went down 2 lbs, and from last week to this week it went down another lb. But the whole time from before the weight gain to now…

For the millionth time, net calories?
I have a very disordered view of food, calories, exercise, and how much of each I should be getting. I have my calories set to 1460 and with everything I do throughout the day and with dance team practice my net is often under 1,000 (although I've recently been trying to increase it). But I'm wondering if it truly does…

Gained 7 pounds in a week?
I recently bought a scale for my dorm because I had only been able to use my boyfriends or the one when I went home. On both of those I fluctuated between 114-116 usually. I weighed myself on mine and it said 118. I figured it was a normal fluctuation so I recorded it. But today I weighed myself again, just three days…

Feeling fat no matter what?
I am I guess what you'd say recovered from an ED. And while I eat "normal" now, I still have the same kind of thoughts. I rarely think that I look even halfway decent, and if I eat anything over a couple hundred cals I feel like I've gained 20 lbs. Does anybody else deal with this or have any advice? Or tips on how to tone…

Not losing any weight despite what MFP says?
I have been stuck at the same weight for months now no matter what I do. I try to eat around 1,200-1,400 calories a day and my macros are set to 35C/35P/30F. Plus I try workout a couple times a week along with 3 days of dance team practice that is usually around 2.5 hours long. I do let myself have treats every once in a…

Honest body opinions (add your own pic too)
I know that I, as well as probably many of you, see myself differently than other people see me. So what I was wondering is what you guys think of me. And then you can add your pictures as well and get opinions on you. Some of this might be harsh though so I wouldn't suggest adding your picture if you can't handle…

Anybody recovering or have an eating disorder past?
I'd love to add some of you for some support at our weaker points to try to prevent any relapses. Although the support from everyone else on this site is nice, I don't exactly know if they can relate when I'm getting too obsessed with the numbers or being nervous at how high they are. I'm 18 by the way and have been…

Net Calories?
Is it really that important to have your "net calories" at around 1,200? I typically eat around 1,500 and burn around 600 when I workout, leaving my "net" at somewhere around 900. I've heard from some people that it doesn't matter while others swear if your net isn't high enough you won't lose as much. Any opinions?
