    @MaggieGirl135 Does MFP track anything besides calories (for free?) Perhaps more important than the calories is the source. 1000 calories of broccoli vs 1000 calories of chocolate - same calories but not used the same way by your body.

    @quiltingjaine The free version of mfp allows tracking for a few items. It automatically tracks your macros from your logged foods. I do not concern myself with how these fall day-to-day, as I have always eaten a balanced diet, often with foods cooked from scratch. Mfp allows you to customize the macros, as well. Mfp also tracks sodium and other nutrients, but these are very dependent on how "good" the entries are that you select to log your foods--many people create entries with only the calories, I believe. You can also input water. I don't because I drink a bunch of water every day for at least five years and don't worry about it. Also, I live in the Colorado Rockies; this is a very arid place! Trust me, I can drink water! You can also input exercise, to have mfp "give" you more calories to eat. I have done this in the past, but I now exercise about 6 days/week, following pretty much the same routine. With my exercise calories fairly constant day-to-day and me averaging the loss of a pound per week, I just track total calories. The free version may track more items; these are the ones I know. I hope this addresses your question/concern.

    Round 169

    Please join us! Starting on 11/18 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 169
    Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.

    Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.

    Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!

    Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.

    FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

    Goals
    - check in at least every other day
    - Low carb
    - participate
