Diverticulitis is NOT going to be death of me!
Hi y’all, I’m Kim from central Texas. 57 (and a half! lol) and I am struggling. Tomorrow will be four full weeks of being sick from my third diverticulitis flare-up, but this one is a doozy. Last time I was on a scale was two weeks ago at my doctor’s office, and at that point I’d lost 15 lbs since the last time I’d seen…

I have been on my health and weight loss journey for over 8 months. I’ve lost a little over 45 pounds so far and none of my clothes fit properly which is great. Over the past 4 weeks I’ve only lost 1.2 pounds, and last week I gained over a pound. I’m under my calorie intake, carb intake, fat intake, and over my protein…

I have configured MFP to read steps from Google Fit via "Android Health Connect" (Android smartphone), - so Google Fit is saving my activity (steps) to Android Health Connect, and MFP is reading them from there. The problem is that Google Fit is writing my steps all the time, but…

Splitting Added Sugar out from Sugar counts
I am tracking on MFP, and find the macro tracking usually useful. However, my diet is high in fruits and vegetables that have a pretty high sugar count.
