Which scale is more accurate?
My doctor's fancy digital scale reading differs from the reading on the mechanical one that I have at home with the easy-to-read dial. I'm wearing the same clothes for both but the results are totally different. My doctor's digital scale says that I gained 1 lb. in three weeks but my bathroom one says I've lost 4 lbs. I…

Female Bulking Advice Needed
First a little background. I’m a 46 year old mother of three. In mid-June, I started lifting weights with good results. I was able to take my body fat from 24% to about 18%. Now that I can see what I have to work with, I want to bulk (focus on adding muscle mass). My plan is to gradually increase my calories from 200-300…

This really works
Hi, I'm currently starting back on my fitness pal. I've been on it before and I dropped from a size 14 to a size 8 for my wedding all from eating healthy. I've had a couple of stressful times since then and ballooned to size 16-18 from comfort eating, something I've never done before. Now I'm determined to get back to a…

Lost 22lbs.
This is the most weight I've ever lost on the million and one weight loss journeys I've been on. But I don't see a difference. I feel like I still look the same as I did 22lbs ago. I still have 80-100 more pounds to go to reach my goal. I'd just like to start seeing the results on more than just the scale. Since I have so…

Hoping peer pressure will help me succeed...
Hi, been using fitness pal for a while to not much avail- I'm hoping getting involved in the community, make some friends and hope it will make me be more honest and behave better. I have lost about 8stone, going from size 22 UK to size 8 UKish, so maybe I could help some others out too. I have recently put up a bit of…

daily weigh ins make me want to smash things like Hulk.
I've been on this journey since mid March and at first I was weighing in daily. You know how it goes at first, the weight just seems to fall off when you find something that works. A month or so goes by and the weight is not coming off as fast. This is to be expected but still kind of sucks. So. It's morning. I'm standing…

Bulletproof Coffee...Busted
How ‘Superfoods’ Like Bulletproof Coffee Get Popular (Hint: It’s Not Nutritional Science) I love this article. Favorite parts: 1. Dr. Ranit Mishori, a family medical doctor and professor at Georgetown University School of Medicine, has reviewed the scientific literature on juice cleanse diets. Her conclusion is that any…

So much confusion
I always though cardio was what you needed to do to lose weight. Now I'm seeing all these things saying that strength training is actually what I'm supposed to be doing. Should I do both? Alternate days? To be honest strength training scares me. I always feel like people are looking at me on the machines thinking I have no…

Dog Followed Me home, a lesson.
Saturday morning I was out for a jog when two dogs ran right up to me. My initial fear disapeared as they seem friendly, and trotted along next to me. I noticed that both appeared well groomed, but neither were wearing a collar. After about a mile I realized I might be stuck with them following me home. I took my phone off…

THE UP3 EXISTS!! IT FINALLY ARRIVED!!
I've only been waiting since Nov. 30. :/ It arrived nicely packaged, but had zero charge - although it appears that it had a little charge during shipping, as it recorded steps on its journey. The form factor is surprisingly small. It's narrower than even the Fitbit Flex, but not quite as flat. The main body is not as long…
