Best ways to deload?
I currently do a 4 day upper/lower split and wondering how to deload properly. Can I reduce my training days to 2 days, and do some walking or yoga added? Do those 2 lifting days need to be lighter than usual? Reps/sets or weight, or both? Do I have to follow percentages or just cut the weight down or do what feels light?

Disabilities and weight loss
I am new. I have a rare disease that is quite painful. Some days it hurts too much to eat and other days I eat way too much (usually when I feel sorry for myself because I am sick). I recently had a 8 week flareup during which I lost 14 pounds. I was happy to see the loss, but now I am worried that it may have screwed up…

Saxenda
Has anyone had any success with saxenda? I've been on it now since October 27th and I've gone from 275 to 257 today. I don't know if it's because it's given me new drive to lose weight again and it's all in my head or if this drug really helps. Either way it's helped me. Comments anyone?

Fat loss vs Scale weight!

MFP stopped allowing weight recordings that aren't whole numbers??? WHAT? WHY
Starting yesterday, MFP does not allow me to enter weight recordings that aren't integers So if my scale says I weigh 175.4 pounds, MFP won't let me enter it because it has a .4 at the end. It would say "Please select a valid value. the nearest valid values are 175 and 176." WHY That's dumb Is this just their new dumb…

Bring back the ability to add decimal values in Check-In
The redesigned check-in only allows integer values for weight. I don't know if this works for pounds but I use metric units and recording weight in increments of 1 kg (2.1 lb) is so general it makes the feature useless. Please, bring back decimals!

A Podcast About "The Calorie"
I like food. Big surprise, right? I like to eat, and I like to cook. I like to watch cooking shows on public television and listen to them on public radio. Public television is the only thing that I can pick up over the air, but that’s irrelevant. If I had other channels, I’d probably watch food shows there too. When I had…
