Activity Level
How do you decide what activitely level you are at when setting your profile up? I have been on a while and have set myself up as lightly active since I work out a lot but also sit at a desk all day. I am not sure that is accurate because I work out 6 days a week and am always running around, except when at work. I tried a…

pleasant surprise
Hi ya'll, I think I've mentioned before that I play on a netball team. I had always logged my calories for netball games as pretty low- around 150 - because we play four 10-minute quarters and in netball, you are restricted to where you can run on the court. So it is a very stop-and-start kind of game and I figured that I…

Old Country Buffet
Yes, friends, it IS possible to eat enough for two people. I had lunch today with my friend at an old favorite: Old Country Buffet. I started out alright with a nice high fiber salad but then it all went downhill. When I got home, I tallied up 2700 calories. Without touching the salt shaker I had a whopping 3600 milligrams…

Beware: some items in food database are wrong
I've noticed quite a few incorrect entries in the food database. Be careful that you don't over or under eat because of wrong data. For instance, I thought 300 calories for a cup of pasta sounded too high. When I checked on Calorie King http://www.calorieking.com it showed 1 cup of cooked pasta at closer to 200 calories. I…

Irrational fears of things increasing the scale number.
Does anyone else have irrational fears of things making the scale number go up? (I'm not talking body fat...but just things that may make the scale number go up a tiny little bit and not give an accurate weight.) Like...I'm afraid of dry skin not being removed will make the number go up...so I scrub and scrub and scrub…

Same Cals per day or same NET cals per day???
So I met with my trainer today. We went over several things, diet, exercise, etc. Anyhow, he encouraged me to make sure I keep my cals level, so that once I plateau again, we can raise/lower cals to wake up the body. Anyway, I am not sure if that means stick to the same # of cals in, or same net # of cals per day. Some…
