What is going on?
This is frustrating. I measured my thighs in January and they measured 28 inches around at the widest part. I've lost 25 pounds, and today I measured them again and they say 29 inches. Is it possible to bloat in your thighs if you're retaining water? I'm expecting my period in the next week and the scale hasn't budged in a…

New Daily Sports Training & Calories. Help?
My rugby season starts Thursday with an hour and a half of fitness training, which continues 4 days a week every week. I'm talking intense training (running stairs, sprints, circuits, tackling drills, ect), with little rest. I don't have a heart rate monitor yet, and the nature of the training makes it hard to log it as…

Any borderlines here?
I was just diagnosed with BPD, and I'm kind of nervous about what the rest of my life will be like. I'm not sure that I fit everything, but I definitely believe that I am borderline. Does anyone else have any experience with being a young borderline?

High Protein, 1200 cal per day.
Hi there, I currently have my net calories set at 1,200 calories a day, with my carbs, protein and fat set at 40/30/30, but I've been trying to eat way above my recommended protein intake because I really don't want to lose muscle mass. That always means that my fat is below the recommended, because my carbs stay at or a…

All over the place?
For the past couple days, my weight has been ALL over the place. I'm drinking a ton of water, so I'm pretty sure it's not bloat, but I don't know why this is happening? Friday night at about 2am I couldn't sleep and just decided to weigh myself for fun and the scale said 257, which was down 2.6 pounds from that morning.…

What the?!?!?!?!??!
So I am DEFINITELY not complaining, but is it possible to lose 5 pounds within a matter of days? Like from Tuesday to now?! I've been steadily losing for the past week, stepped on the scale tonight and I'm down two pounds from this morning. I understand that that's likely water weight, and since I got my period tonight I…

Arm, Leg, Core and Total Body Strength Workouts
Hey there! I'm currently trying to put together a few different workouts to do that will build muscle, but also keep my heart rate relatively high, so that I can also burn fat. Right now I have an elliptical, a set of dumbbells (I believe they're 3, 5, 8), an 8lb kettlebell, a yoga mat, a 65cm pilates ball, pilates…

I've lost 15 pounds, but my badge says 11? And my ticker won
"I've lost 15 pounds, but my badge says 11? And my ticker won't show up anywhere. Is anyone else having these problems?" Sorry, the topic got cut. I've just noticed it today, after the site went down for a few minutes.

Nutrition when sick: Does my body need more calories?
I have a sinus cold and I ate breakfast about 45 minutes ago, a breakfast high in protein that I eat almost everyday (omelette with various vegetables and meat substitutes and some cheese, plus a yogurt) and I'm always full for a while afterwards. Right now though, I feel hungry and I'm not sure if it's from being sick or…

Sagging Skin in "Teens".
Hi there, I'm new to the community. I've been using MFP for about 6 months now, but unfortunately I had a minor setback this summer. I now have 150 pounds to lose and I'm hoping to do it in a year and a half. I've got my diet plan figured out, workouts, ect, but I am TERRIFIED that once I lose all of this weight, I will…
