Well, we hit the 20 member mark it seems!

:drinker:

I'm raven on arfcom. I was using MFP pretty religiously in September, it's a very well designed and convenient tool. Didn't lose much weight but I made really good progress on cardio.

Magurgle here

Aiming for 300 in june, 280 by september and a short term goal of under 330 to drink beer again. My home scale tops out at 330, but will read about 5 pounds over that before an error message shows on the screen

I was 350 on 1/1/13
333 on my last weigh in a couple days ago

Hey guys. Sparky joining in.

Hi everyone, my name is the same at ARFCOM. Maybe now that im in a group I can shame myself into exercising more.

SgtKiwi reporting for duty!

Well I don't post much at either place. Same user name over there. I am down 80 pounds from last August and trying to maintain right now.

Damn, 80 lbs, great job. I'll be glad when I'm there.

Thanks! 230 down to 150. I'm 35 and 5'10". I Plateaued hard for 3 months on weight but my body fat was still dropping.

Keep with it and you will get there.

I didn't think I would get this low either. I was shooting for 175 but still didn't like how I looked in the mirror so stuck with the diet.

I am mostly following the Primal Blueprint from marksdailyapple.com. The main thing I worry about is keeping my carbs below 100 grams a day and my protein above 150 grams a day. I am eating around 1800 calories a day net of exercise. I also don't worry too much about each day as long as my weekly numbers are on track. I walk for 45-60 minutes every day (at lunch) and do strength training 3 nights a week and Pilates 2-3 nights a week.

If you want to friend me you can see my diet.

I'm dieselnut on arfcom. I've fallen off the wagon, and figured its time to jump back on. I'm glad to see more like minded individuals on here than when I last looked on mfp.

Welcome back. I think our groups is growing good and has real meat eating - beer drinking guys looking to loose a few lbs.

i've had the app for a few weeks. I've found it to be an invaluable tool in helping to keep me honest and informed about what I eat.

I'm liking some aspects of it, but the lack of customization for nutrition goals kind of annoys me. Seems like you should be able to customize it for different diet plans. Say you were doing a higher protein lower carb... This thing is telling me My protein goal is 63 grams. ****, I've only got 3 left for the day, and it's not even 9 am. I know I can just ignore it and follow my numbers, but I feel like it's scolding me for not eating 200 grams of carbs. Not a big deal. Loving the bar code scanner, working on Greek yogurt and protein drink so far.

If you log into the website, not the phone app, you can customize your settings. I only used my Ipad for most of a year and had the same issue. Then I logged into the website to show a friend and found out you can change all the settings there.
