About men
Because I'm a man, when I lock my keys in the car, I will fiddle with a coat hanger long after hypothermia has set in. Calling AAA is not an option. I will win. ______________________________________________ Because I'm a man, when the car isn't running very well, I will pop the hood and stare at the engine as if I know…

Calculating Bites and Tastes
Recording everything has been great for me, and is certainly helping to curtail my snacking! But, I'm not sure how to count things like: 6 of my husband's french fries, and a bite or two of my son's frozen yogurt, etc... does anybody have a solution to this? I'd almost like to have a category that we could manually adjust…

calories

Get your opinion
My scale has said I've gained a pound a day for the last 3 days. I'm still being really strict with my calories so I don't understand. Do you think I could be gaining a pound a day or it might be my scale? It's discouraging either way! :noway:

Trips anyone?
I'm just curious if any one else has a big trip coming up that they have factored into their goals and use as a motivator? For me, my husband and I are going with a bunch of friends to Texas and Mexico on March 13th. I've set a goal of hitting 159 pounds by Valentines Day.

I hope the scale doesn't lie!
The scale said I was down another pound this morning (and 2% body fat!!) That makes 4 pounds since Sunday. While that is exciting, it is also strange at the same time. I am drinking more than enough water and I am making sure to eat enough calories. I just pray that it is not all water loss. That would be soooo…

Day 1
Well....Day 1 has come and gone. Now Im not the kind of person who has ever really watched what i eat or how much i ate, and even just after one day, Im starting to realize how hard it is going to be to meet my daily levels. They have me eating about 1800/day...I would guess I would normally consume 2500 to 3000 a day.…

Today, however, I did...it took 30 min into my workout to do so but it happened...it felt really good.

Calories vs Protein
I'm having trouble eating enough calories every day but I go over in the protein. I know it is important to be sure to use all my calories to keep my metabolism working but is it better to go over by a couple of proteins or under by 400-500 calories? I can't seem to get enough calories without protein. HELP.

High cost of food - Mary gets on a soap box
Last week a mfp member (I think it was big dane) mentioned how much more money health food cost than crap food. An apple costs more than a ding dong. I'm reading the "Omnivore's Dilemma" and found two interesting quotes on the subject: "It's true that cheap industrial food is heavily subsidized in many ways such that its…

I look sexier!!
I've been at this site for about two months and lost 15+ lbs. I was mostly doing cardio with a little strength training on the side.
