How to deal with gym anxiety?
Hey there! I just wanted to share with you that I recently took a leap and joined a gym membership. However, I have to admit that it was more out of my intrusive thoughts at 3am rather than a well thought-out decision. The thing is, I struggle with social anxiety and going to the gym makes me feel embarrassed and insecure.…

Everything should be able to be measured by weight.
I have a scale in my kitchen, and I use it to get a precise indication of my caloric intake. However, too many measure with "volume" like cups. Not everything can be measured accurately that way imho. Too much empty space with larger items measuring that way. Every cup will be different.

Barcode Scanner
My best suggestion for MFP would be to remove the paywall for the barcode scanner. That the app was intentionally made LESS functional for a cash grab is definitely a sign of greed on the part of MFP corporate. It makes sense to roll out improvements to paying premium members first. But to disable an existing feature is…

Nutrition
I’ve seen on a healthy eating website that nuts and seeds are healthy but in moderation and that drinking water is good . I have a refillable water bottle I think I need to drink five for the day . As far as nuts and seeds the one I like is chia seeds how do I get in mindset to have it as a snack and lifestyle. Same thing…

Rice cooked and uncooked calories?
Sorry if this is a stupid question which has been asked 1000 times, but this is really confusing me. Is there any difference between uncooked and cooked rice? I didn't think so but after doing some reasearch, I'm confused. I read this:http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_many_calories_in_100g_of_rice and the calories seem to be…

At Goal & Successfully Maintaining. So Why Am I Doing This All Over Again?
Many of you know me from the boards. I’m going to cut right to the chase with a before (May 2018) and after (July 2021)photo. MFP works. I wholeheartedly believe in MFP’s philosophy of CICO (calories in/calories out). I’ve been successful with it. So why am I “starting over”? During his annual physical, my beloved’s doctor…
