I love breakfast...lately I have had a goal to eat 5 servings fruits and veggies and have been trying to check that box first thing in the morning. I work out soon afterwards and usually have a light lunch and dinner. Oatmeal made with chia seeds and flax seeds, then folded in 4 ounces whipped egg whites. I then add a…

You look fantastic. Love the word- Inculcating...And I think your solutions- " I lift and bike and do yoga sporadically. Maybe I just need to give it more time to get used to eating smaller amounts while working out? "Are exactly what you need. Maintenance and Recomposition.

You are so young, you really should see a sports doctor and be accurately diagnosed. My son while in HS took a month off of sports, he started running and playing soccer again and his knee swelled. We did go to a very good sports medicine doctor, who after his intern scared the bejeezus out of us, pointed out my son was…

Cantaloupe ( #1) is the one of the best fruits for being a diuretic, Watermelon also is wonderful but not n season... Raspberries, blackberries and blueberries were included...not fancy but delicious and and going with my multicolor fruit and veggie theme this month.

I am working with my doctors ( gynecologist and neurologist) right now trying to force menopause- I went on the pill for three months straight, hoping when I paused this week I would not have a period- FAIL this month. but will try again for 3 months. I am having a horrible peri-menopause-migraines everyday, insomnia, my…

I suffer from migraines too, and had to take a Maxalt/Rizatriptan today. I do see a neurologist and am also having a once a month injectable Amivig but have not seen any improvement yet. We do all have different triggers and need to listen to our own bodies. Where we lived previously they had hot yoga and it did wonders…

There is so much wonderful information on the stickies at the "Getting Started " heading. I had seem to start as you did...but I did not realize though I was not eating enough calories and very low protein. After reading these excellent posts I reviewed my goals, increased my protein ( doubled) and began an adequate…

I can only sing praises. @springlering62 has done a fantastic summary of its many uses, and even though I am a luddite I use all these features except Cellular. It definitely motivates me, I have closed all 3 rings now for almost 2 years. I am on my second watch because my face popped off several months ago and I was sadly…

I love my apple watch and find it very accurate for me. I honestly have never looked at the number you're referencing. I use the exercise calories as my eat back calories and consider the extra move calories as NEAT calories. They sync with MFP and subtract and I eat 100%. This has generally worked for me sometimes I have…

Motion is Lotion... Quoting my orthopedist... While I will never run again (and it is my own darn fault).Arthritis in knee... Spinning is wonderful- twice a week, and I spent more than 3 months doing wall sits during Les Mills Body Pump instead of doing squats and lunge tracks ( honestly squats and lunges may be easier) ,…

I love group fitness classes. They have been a wonderful place to start for me, the instructors who teach the classes are usually well trained and usually happy to help with form and guidance. I do the Les Mills Body Pump class ( many gyms have these classes or classes like this) which is a class where you use weights and…

Not understanding MFP at first I started with eating 1200-1300 calories, I stalled, felt tired, struggled working out and had trouble sleeping. I discovered reading these message boards and evaluating my food diary I was eating very little protein ( I thought I was eating lot) and eating too little calories. I upped my…

I find when I ride long distances for me (30-40 miles) and even though I ride rather slow my heart is beating over 100 beats per minute the entire time...I am shocked how many calories I burn when I do not even feel I really exerted myself. Making sure you have enough energy for your ride definitely improves the quality of…

I have recently bought and love the Lily Dark Chocolate made with Stevia. Honestly I only eat a half serving now , I do not know why, its delicious and rich but very satisfying at the smaller amount...Each bar is 2 servings instead of just a square. As already suggested the dark, dark 80% and above chocolate is very rich…
