Keeping up During Workweek
A common trap is that, as a teacher, I don't make the time to log during the workweek until I've come home for dinner and forgotten everything I ate (which cannot be much anyway) during the morning and afternoon. Often, too, my foods are small unknown portions, homemade, random bites of this and that. The only time I am…

That person will then put together random letters and the person below will make up an acronym and so on. For example: If the above poster said PZFG, my…

Something I'd like to see implemented is a scale system to be able to really get the exact macros without guessing how much of a serving size is. I constantly am trying to get my last few macros and it's hard to get it down to the exact amount I need. An app I've used before with this system was RP. It costs money to use,…

Supplements (collagen/glucosamine/fish oil) and water retention
So I've had a 2kg jump on the scale lasting multiple days for no reason, and all I can think is that I started back up on my collagen/glucosamine/fish oil after a period of not taking it. Otherwise, I've eaten within my calories (a few high days but more than covered by some big exercise burns) and nothing's changed from…
