Muscle vs. fat
I understand that muscle weighs more then fat, but any idea how much more? I do a lot of heavy lifting as I'm training to compete, and my clothes are getting looser, and I can see that I am thinner and there is a LOT more muscle, but not seeing a whole lot of movement on the scale - which I'm ok with, but decided I'm not…

Earned calories
First things first, I got on the scale for the first time today since I came back to MFP (about a week and a half), and lost 4 pounds! That was the first thing to really motivate me - besides beach season is right around the corner. Once I saw the weightloss - even with a few big cheats this week, I know, now it's on!! I…

Back Again...
I decided to come back to MFP. Last year I was doing great, and then winter came, and I packed on the pounds - 40 to be exact! I'm ridiculously motivated right now, especially since beach season is coming... Good luck to everybody out there! Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Food Diary
