Will2 $.02 if you are weighing yourself every morning to keep you in line I dont think you are going to be happy when your body decides not to play along 1 or 2 days, add to that the week Aunt Flo comes, you'll freak out for no reason.

I would seriously suggest trying to weigh yourself MAYBE at most 3 x a week to break your habit of doing it daily. I sure hope this is not coming off the wrong way but I want you to see if you CAN. Ive been there but now, if I weigh myself daily Im like Treil and likke graphs and look at it from a different perspective (ill touch on that below) ... I think it's be good for you to get over that compulsion to let it define you or do it daily b/c the scale is the last way you should be looking to measure your progress. I think for obese or very overweight people it may be more important but you do not have a large amount of weight to lose.

If you weighed yourself every M-W-F you shouldn't look at it like "Hey I weighed 130 on Monday and now 135 On friday, what is going on??" Seeing your weekly routine is somewhat structured I would compare your typical Monday weight to your typical Monday and your typical Friday to your typical friday.. not look at is a daily progression or regression of a # that will change daily... we're lucky the thing doesn't have (usually) more than one decimal place... "OMG I gained .075 pounds!!!"

Keep up the great work.

Why hello hello hello!!!!
Good news bout the diet girl, usually if you get some of the cravings its because your body wants that so feed it! Oh and have a great day!

Thanks girlie!! Have a great day, too!

I agree, you need to make some changes to it if you want to feel better. Everyone is different so if you can keep your calories down, def. add some carbs since you are upping your cardio too. For one thing, you'll cut down on the desire to binge, which just screws up everything and you end up feeling really bad.

Hey, babe!! I already feel 10x better just from giving in a little more the past couple days. Hopefully this will be just what I need.

That didn't not come off the right way at all. (okay, that sentence was wierd, but anyways...) I started tracking my weight daily this year just for the graph on FitDay. It's funny you even mention me weighing myself every day because I have decided to just weigh myself on Saturdays. You're right! I do flip out a bit when the scale moves up more than 2 pounds. I understand water weight and all, but I don't want to accept it or something! LOL! As much as I want to be leaner (and I will get there! it just might take a little longer), I want to feel happy and healthy, too!... not tired, stressed out, and generally blah.

Thank you!

Hi, Roony! I must say, I have really been enjoying all of my meals for a change!

I'm new to this site was wondering if anyone had a recommendation on a really good energy pill? I'm not looking for a product that contains a lot of fat burning ingredients; only a great boost of energy. I'm already pretty lean; wt: 120 and ht: 5'9. I'm just not really toned at all and I've got quite a bit of fat on my butt and lower stomach. My goal is to get my body toned with a great diet and workout. The problem is that I work a lot and go to school a lot so I really think an energy pill would help me out because I'm always tired. I just started taking vitamins yesterday and I've heard that can help with feeling more lively. If any of you have a great recommendation on an energy pill, that would really be helpful. Also, is there any other pills that I should be taking while working out and eating good? My husband is hard core with working out and he takes so many supplements, but he doesn't know anything about women so I'm seeking for help from all of you. The only thing I'm taking now is a multi-vitamin by Opti-Women. Again, I am new to this site so if there's anything I've left out, please let me know. Thanks everyone!
