Yes x3 today. My Fitbit won't sync with MFP for some reason so my calorie deficit is bigger than I think it is.5

I went to Curves on Friday and I had lost about 7 pounds. Looking at my 3 day report. I exercised pretty good, however I started to slip on calorie counting. Calorie counting is so crucial in weight loss, especially for beginners like me. I'm going to try to do better in that department too this week.

I had a similar thought this pass weekend as we celebrate Thanksgiving here in the the North. This UAC group was on my list of all the things I am thankful for this year. I have learned a lot from reading everybody's post. I am thankful that we have so much food that MFP could bring us together (First World's problem according to my kids
)
BTW, Happy Thanksgiving to my Canada friends!

I'm guilty of quickly skimming most post and not commenting or even hitting a like or woo! I plan to change that because this group is very inspiring and I like that we are all in it together.

You might want to avoid the "woo". I am told that it does not mean "wow" but something more like "I question the science behind that". Maybe @RangerRickL can confirm how it is used in this challenge.

@allmannerofthings; and @TeresaW1020 When MFP added the "woo' emoji, I assumed that it was a short cut for "Whoohoo!" a positive in my part of the world. Nonetheless, it was pointed out to me that the "Woo' emoji has a rather sour expression. My old eyes did not notice that little issue. I stopped using the "Woo' since it seems to be an ambiguous choice that could be good and could be bad. Why MFP chose an ambiguous emoji is strange. I now prefer 'inspiring' when I want to express, "Great!!"
Thanks for asking, Rick3 -

Cals yes, track yes, exercise no.

@mekelly & @allmannerofthings
I have the same problem not with Fitbit but with my Garmin device. However I have found out that I can force it to syncronize by opening the MFP app on my phone, open the Menu and scroll down until the last voice where it says "Sync" and likely also says "Last: a few seconds ago"...and click that. Doesn't happen anything but when I switch back to the Diary it has synchronized.
Doesn't hurt to try.5
