Return of the Shedi

Hopefully for good 🤞 So far I've lost 15 pounds, with a total goal of 45 Pounds. I've lost the weight before, but I have yet to actually stay at a healthy weight, so I'm hoping I can stick to it.…

Should I keep cutting or start bulking?

According to a recent DEXA scan, I’m at about 12%…

I lowered my BP and lost some weight
Alright, so doctor said I should attempt to lower my blood pressure without being on medication and to come back in a few months to do a follow up. If my BP doesn’t drop, then we’d talk about medication. I didn’t want to go the meds route, so I completely changed my eating habits for the past month and so. Stopped buying…

Calorie Intake for Weight Loss
Hi all! Do you find that what MFP gives us as a calorie goal to lose weight relatively accurate? I am a very tall (6'3), 50yo female. I've lost about 34lbs since March, but I'm still confused about how many calories to eat. My doctor says 1700, MFP tells me 2050, but it seems that if I eat anything above 1000, I don't…

Help figuring out why I am gaining weight...
I am 5'4" and stuck at 122ish lbs. I eat roughly the same meals all week long, I have two small children so its easiest to keep things simple. I log my food, measuring/weighing as best I can. I even log the bites of quesadilla/pb&J I grab off their plates. I have been given the macro breakdown and calorie total in two…

Nutritional information provided by MFP reliable?
hi, So I just uploaded a recipe from the NYT Cooking app and MFP calculates it as having 1400 calories per serve. Yet, when I look up the recipe’s nutritional information page in the app it gives me 605 calories per serving. WTF? Does anyone else find the MFP calorie calculations way off? I would like to know your…

Fiber Not Showing Up
Hi everyone! I made a dinner with Mission Carb Balance tortillas which are supposed to have 17g of dietary fiber. I ate two of them, however, I haven’t even reached half of my daily goal of 25g. I checked and on the app it lists the tortillas as having 17g of fiber so it can’t be a typo. Any answers would be appreciated!…

Has anyone else found the nutritional value used to be incorrect?
I put in 2 cups of steamed spinach and it came back that it contained trans fats. Clearly a glitch, but I’m not sure how to let them know and I’m wondering if the other information is accurate.

Pressing reset
I’ve resisted tracking my food, but need the accountability of watching what I’m actually taking in so I can take better control of my overall health. I give so much to others and need to prioritize giving to myself as well. Life is too precious to feel crappy.
