WEEKLY DEFICIT
Do any of you track your weekly deficit? You know 3500 equals 1 lb? How do you do it do you use the mfp report or what? I feel like this would help balance out bad days plus MFP doesn't go under 1200 calories which as far as I can calculate only equals like a 1 and half lb week deficit. And no I'm not talking about eating…

Question for reformed smokers
In my journey for better health I am also taking on quitting smoking. I am doing ok so far with a middle strength patch and I smoke 1 ciggarette a day before bed and even that is starting to taste nasty and make my nose hurt. It is still a struggle and I feel like I smell nicotene all day and it makes me salvitate in lust.…

THANKSGIVING

STREAKERS!!!
I wonder who has the longest Streak of continuous days logged in. Just for fun. I think the longest I've ever had is probably 120 or so when I cheat I avoid the guilt of MFP lol!!

Skin tightening info
I think anyone who loses weight is concerned about this. I really wasn't too concerned since my heighest weight was 205 and I am 5'5 but after reading tummy tuck threads on here I started getting paranoid because I've had 2 babies also. Anyhow I started researching and there are things you can NOW while losing to help…

Do you really need rest days?
This is my first week doing strength training- ever in my life! I am a little sore but not an I want to die sore. I didn't go to the gym this morning like I usually do at 5am (I am just going to do 30 days shred tonight) but I am really sore from not using my muscles and in a really bad mood for no obvious reason. My first…

Please add me if you feel you meet your protein goals and have an open diary you would like to share. I do alot of lean cuisines for lunch because they are easy and so I need more protein ideas for the rest of my day.

NSV
So last night I finally bought some size 10 capris. I've been wearing my 13's and 14's not wanting to spend money but a belt just doesn't work anymore. I tried them on at home last night and TOM is visiting right now so I'm a little bloated and was unsure if they looked right. My 13 year old son who basically hasn't gone…

30day shred info needed
So I found a 32 minute You tube video for 30 day shred level one while trying to google whether or not amazon instant vids were compatible with wii (theyre not). My question is- Would I do the same video everyday, Is that what the actual program is? And then when do you move to the next level?

KInda gross
But here goes- Hooray for belly buttons that don't look like massive black holes that will suck someone away to another dimension. YAY!!!!!

Help tweaking foods
I am looking thru my diary trying to pick out the not so good things and exchange them for better choices. I think my protien, carbs, and usually my sugars stay close enough to my goals but decided to start working on lowering high sodium and fat choices for better alternatives while still keeping protiens up and carbs…

Running problem
I am looking for some good advice on how to breath while running. Maybe it gets easier as you get healthy and maybe it is because I am still a smoker but my lungs are done running WAY before my body is. I really enjoy running and would like to increase my distance but I sound and look like a fool the entire 2 miles that we…

Plateau? Or am I doing something wrong?
I am supposedly doing things right- muscle weighs more blah blah blah THE SCALE HAS NOT MOVED IN A WEEK!! Am I seriously plateauing after a little over a month???? And it's not that TOM just got over that and had no bloat gain (which also was weird). I am trying to stay positive and remember that this journey for me is as…

What time to exercise, does it matter?
Does anyone exercise in the am? I wake up very cranky :yawn: and my muscles are so tired I am afraid I wouldn't work out to my full potential but I really would rather do it in the morning because at night I get too wired to sleep. :grumble: I have never in my life stuck to an exercise routine for more than a few days and…
