What do you do when you have a bad day?
I have been using MFP for about 2 weeks now and I must say it's been really easy for me. I think I have probably already lost close to 10 pounds. I gave up soda which was easy, I gave up sweets which was also easy, and MFP has helped me to give up snacking. With that said I don't know that I want to give up some high…

Need to reset goals and have questions (long, sorry)
The last time I weighed myself was 97 days ago, just after I'd hit a plateau that lasted 3 months... I had changed my calories from 1200 to 1700 based on how much I was exercising and the road map post everyone raves about. It appears I have basically maintained the weight I was at for the past few months, but gained…

Newer people - Setting goals for weight loss (calculators)
If you're like me, starting at MFP is a little overwhelming. It's a lot of information to process. And, I am sure this is all over the forums in various places, but I just wanted to do a consolidation of the big ideas I've learned here so far. I found this on Trogalicious' profile:…

Restarting and wanting to connect
I am back on MFP after trying other programs, but frankly, I was managing well with weight loss when I made it a habit to log daily and increase my activity. (Who would've thought, right?) lol.

Question About Strength Training
Why don't any of the strenght training exercises carry a calories burned factor like the aerobic exercises do? Doing 50 situps on a slant board has got to burn some calories as do all the weight lifting exercises.
