Strawberries!!!!!!
It is strawberry season here. I picked two flats and put them in the freezer!! We kept out some to eat. According to Fitness Pal and their calorie charts, Fresh strawberries are wonderful to eat without a lot of calories. I sliced the strawberries and put a couple of tsps of sugar on them and a little RediWhip and I was in…

Eating Keto style here, and stalled for a couple of weeks..
..and went through the whole withdrawal from carbs, and believe I either did get into Ketosis, or body is still changing. I'm guessing the latter in that first statement. I didn't have a lot of fat to lose, but at 136, 5'2", and 68 years old, I was out of proportion with fat hanging over in those "certain" places. I'm…

Weird weights
Maybe I’m just missing something..why are some of the measurements in weird cup sizes? I have no idea (google not much help) what 0.3 cups is... or 0.2 cups. Why are things not in tablespoons or 1/4 cup or 1/2 cup measures? I’m spending quite a bit of time trying to figure this stuff out. It’s becoming tedious every time I…

Food Processor and Blender Recommendations
(Feel like making a new thread on this because the search results I was getting were at least five years old, so something new might be good for everybody.) I've had a Ninja blender for the past seven or eight years, bought on clearance. I put it through a LOT - I don't typically make smoothies, but I have used it to grind…

OMG! Fall from Grace. Chocolate Pie!!!!!!!!!!
I really and truly don't feel a lot of remorse. Is that bad? Husband wanted chocolate pie. I make a fantastic chocolate pie. So I made a chocolate pie. I not only ate one piece after dinner, i just now ate a piece and I am fixing to go to bed soon. It was so good. My grandmother gave me her secret which I will share with…

Help with diet!!!
Hello all.. I need help. I am so frustrated with trying to lose weight. I’ve been struggling for a long time. I need to lose at least 20-30 pounds and I’ve been diagnosed with fatty liver (non alcohol related). The problem is that I’ve set a 1200k/day goal but since I don’t have a big appetite, I almost always fall short.…

Why can't I "Complete Entry" for the day?
When I am done logging my food for the day, I click on the "Complete Entry" button, but nothing happens. The spinning wheel never stops spinning. If by chance it does complete it, it will not show up on my wall! WHY? I have tried signing off of Myfitnesspal & signing back in & it still does this. I have tried using my…

Since on meal plan all I crave is SUGAR!!!!
I feel like I’m going crazy. I’ve been on a meal plan for about 2 weeks now to reset my metabolism which includes high protein high carb (rice carbs only) and no dairy or breads and low sugar. But since I’ve started all I want is sugar and it’s getting really frustrating!!! I’m not sure if it’s because I cut protein bars…

Neutral Protein powder for baking?
Hi friends! I’m looking into starting to add more protein to some baked items (specifically baked oatmeal, but I’m sure I will find other uses). I’m looking for a protein powder that is 1) unflavored (so that it can go with many different flavor combinations, maybe even savory baked items as well as sweet), 2) not easily…

Has anyone succeeded with 'intuitive eating' after hitting their weight loss goal?
MFP has been a great tool in reaching my goal, but I certainly don't want to live the rest of my life logging and minding every single calorie I intake. I have also had a history with disordered eating, so logging isn't something I try/want to be doing obsessively. (I am at a better place with my ED now and have been for…

It doesn't give me energy anymore, just makes me lazy because i sit for like 1h to take it. Do you want to quit cold turkey? Add me as friends and let's do it! :)

Stupid foods we bought to lose weight; I'll start
In the last year I've bought some products because I was told by friends or pintrest that it would help me lose weight, I cleaned out my kitchen today and threw away a lot of useless health food. My worst two purchases: 1: Roseroot powder. Was supposed to give me more energy. After a week my poop came out as green slime,…

Limiting sugar intake?
I’ve slowly but surely come to realise that I have a major problem with sugar/sweets/biscuits etc. I was wondering if anyone has any foolproof strategies to limit sugar intake - one portion a day maybe - but actually stopping after that one which I find impossible to do! Many Thanks 😊

Fellow foodies and cooking hobbyists . . . are you ever embarrassed?
So even when I was a kid I LOVED going out to eat. My parents always made jokes about it and stuff. I was extremely thin growing up, but even still in high school I started to get very self-conscious about this and not show my excitement as much. Then when I was on my own I really became a true "foodie." I love finding the…

Net Carbs
Hi! This may be addressed somewhere else, but I'm not able to find anything about it. When I add to my food diary, the Total Carbs value is the only one that is counted. Is there a way to post the Net Carbs value? in some foods there is quite a difference and it adds up :wink: Thank you in advance.

Schwartz Packet Mixes - Calories...
Hi everyone! I've purchased the schwartz sauces to make chilli con carne, but I make it with 5% Fat mince, chopped toms, onions, and 1/4 can kidney beans with brown rice. The calories on the schwartz packet seem really high, and I don't understand how it can be when it's just a packet of spices? According to google the…

question about 5:2 diet
I started the 5:2 diet about a month ago (today is my 7th fast day). I realize it is slow but I just seem to be losing and gaining the same 2-3 pounds over and over. I do get hungry on my fast days but have managed to stay at 500 calories without issues and am staying under my TDEE of about 1600 on NFD. Has anyone else had…
