  • I love the HealthyChoice Power Bowls. (The steamers are also fine, but there’s a lot of packaging.) they’re reasonably low calorie and filling enough for me - but admittedly I’m sedentary and also tend to have fruit for snack at relatively regular intervals. The Power Bowls have all been pretty good with the exception of…
  • On mobile if you click on “Nutrition” and then in the middle you can click “weekly view” (as well as a few other options). Your main status bar is always daily but you can just come to this page to check. (Picture for example)
  • I work in an office that’s been overrun by meeting frenzy - on Friday I finally have a time near lunch that isn’t booked (yet). Because of that I eat a lot granola bars/cups and fruit on the go. When I actually get to eat I like the Healthy Choice PowerBowls, but at 3.50-5.00 (depending on location) a piece the $/cal ratio…
  • My NSV was CRUSHING my Apple Watch’s achievements this week, including perfect move, exercise, and the New Year! (could’ve had stand and new year if i didn’t get 11/12 on New Year’s Day). I was running quite a bit around this time last year and injured myself, so it feels good to be back and knowing I’m doing this smarter…
  • I’m 5’0 (my drivers license says 5’1 😛) and I managed to creep up to like 237... down a few already & have been around MFP for quite some time. Feel welcome to add me. 😊
  • I found that the steps Apple Watch counts includes purposeful exercise (exercise I track on the watch & click “start”) steps. On the odd occasion I have a very high step count before the exercise it will adjust the step count cal burned to be lower (but not zero) and then also add the exercise. Otherwise it would be double…
  • Anyone here feel welcome to add me 😊 I’m working on a 100 LB loss & would love more friends for the long haul
  • Various TastyBite premade foods - usually Indian inspired & most (all?) of them vegetarian. I love the madras lentils with some rice. Filling comfort food, not super expensive, can be microwaved in literally a minute. I also really like runny eggs on any variety of things.
  • So full disclosure I’ve never been restricted to *no* fat, so these are just some meal ideas that come to kind immediately as likely to be no or extremely low fat that I make somewhat regularly: Shrimp stir fry comes to mind Use a nonstick wok & don’t oil it (or very sparingly). Lots of veggies. Lean protein. Downside is…
  • Hi I had anorexia & as with EDs go, it’s never “cured”, it’s just constant recovery. There’s a type of vegan diet called “HCLF vegan”, which is basically reverse keto. It’s almost entirely fruit and some starches like potatoes. And that specific type of veganism I’ve seen adopted time and time again within ED/ana…
  • Most of the entries in the food database are user generated. Some do not have all of the info available - just calories. If you look for entries with the green check mark, it means they have all of the nutritional info filled out (but are not necessarily from an official source). For fish specifically, make sure you’re…
  • I did very well a little over a year ago but injured myself back in April & managed to regain most of it. I’ve been working on getting back in gear for a few weeks already & added some of you. Not all of my friends from last year are very active anymore :(
  • Woke up hungover & not super hungry, so we had a handful of snacks to up the calorie count for the day... but my one meal I did make: Dinner: Caprese Tortellini Spinach Tortellini from Trader Joe’s, tomatoes, mozzarella balls, olive oil, basil, oregano, salt, pepper
  • I’ve been on a few dates with a guy and we decided to go to the gym together today. He’s definitely in better shape than me, but I kept up. We have plans to go tomorrow after work too.
  • I ran 5 miles in 46 minutes, at least one of those miles was under the 9 minute mark - faster than I have ever been in my entire life ever. And I would’ve kept going if I didn’t have class to get to immediately after.
  • My last hangover (like a week and a half ago) led to my buddy making that exact cauliflower dish for me. He added a little bit of lime juice as well, no extra veggies or proteins in it. It was super delicious and 100% recommend. I also like the blue powerades and a sausage McGriddle for hangovers.
  • I have officially dropped my first dress pant size since (re)starting my journey in September! Down to a size 14 😊😊😊
  • I like spicy foods and runny eggs, but I’ll admit it’s not for everyone
  • My diary is open so feel free to look, but this was tonight’s dinner: 500ish cals (1500 total, made 3 servings) 1 red bell pepper 1 green bell pepper 1/3 white onion, all diced 1 can diced tomato salsa mix thing 1 mason jar homemade medium salsa 12 Oz chicken breast 2 tsp lime juice Paprika Cumin Pepper 3 large eggs Queso…
  • My parents love my cooking (used to get made fun of for being a picky eater) and told me that I inspired them to really start eating better and making better health choices. That felt really good.
  • I drink tea through out the day instead of energy drinks or pop. I still have a morning energy drink for the caffeine kick, but I’ve greatly reduced my calories & plus other benefits of not ingesting copious amounts of taurine & whatever else is in my drinks
  • I’m 23, 5’0, and around 200lb. I started at 227 and found myself enjoying running. Plus pizza and booze and a lot of delicious home cooked meals. Feel welcome to add me. 😊😊
  • I’m 5’1 and started at 227 (roughly the pic w denim jacket). I haven’t owned a scale for 2ish weeks but was hovering at right about 200. Measurements last time I checked was 40-34.5-39.
  • I ran 6.08 miles in 60 minutes today, thus meeting my running goal... it’s time to find a new one! Paired with that, I hit my goal and my friend I told about it was extremely supportive and he was proud of me as well, which felt really good.
  • I’m on track to be sub-200 by 2019. So that’s what I’m working for! 😊😊
  • Last time I started I lost 30 pounds and then it hit -10, -15 F here and I switched to eating big tacos and pastas all the time to warm myself and sabotaged my progress. We haven’t gotten extremely cold here yet, but an indoor gym and I have a few different types of Chai teas have kept me mostly on track. I found with the…
  • I went 4 miles on the elliptical instead of 3 - because I was bored and just felt like I could. And I crushed it. :)
  • I swapped out my Charge 2 for AW3 about 6 months ago. I love it and was sure I was someone who didn’t need a smart watch - just a fitness tracker. I had a learning curve with the way it synchronizes (or doesn’t) my activity levels with mfp. I use Spotify and although it doesn’t have a dedicated app (soon) the built in…
  • On your diary at the bottom there’s the chart for nutrition. Click that, switch it to week view and calories. (Or whatever you’d like to look at)
  • Yeah there was some guy that was super pumped about one but now I don’t see his posts at all so ...??
