I got baby potatoes yesterday and some zuchinni. Got bell peppers, got onions. The turkey ground. Lots of chicken sausages from costco (they were overwhelmingly salty for my taste). I am eating nairn oat crackers — 110g so far — and contemplating the bounty in the fridge!

@HappyAdventures chilled watermelon on a hot day sounds like a beautiful thing! The takeout chicken sounds potentially very tasty… but a nightmare to log!!! 🤣🤣🤣

Going to make a one pot lasagna thing tonight with ground turkey, tomato sauce, cottage cheese, shredded mozzarella, bunch of seasonings, etc. I will take my portion over mushrooms or egg white noodles vs the normal pasta for the family. OK young lady! Say more! I am thinking of doing something with my leftover turkey…

Uh-oh! Careful there Nic! But yes, it does sound awesome!

Unfortunate newsflash—especially since the USDA appears likely to be heading out of the business of being scientifically authoritative—and leaving the labeling to the "good-will" of the manufacturers. I've seen errors on labels — i.e. the labels don't make sense given other information. But they make sense if you consider…

Well since I already linked it today, quoting MFP's nutritional team who in tern are quoting the NIH (4), the maximum recommended calorie deficits are: BMI <27: 250 calories per day BMI 27-35: 500 calories per day BMI >35: 1000 calories per day In other words they are telling you to at MOST target an extremely small…

@cmriverside first of all I totally agree with the substance of your answer, i.e. that moving closer to maintenance calories when approaching goal makes oodles of sense. Speaking to the exact mechanism (other than programming "bugs") as to how a person who has lost weight COULD, theoretically, choose the same settings and…

Was your initial caloric goal set before the activity multiplier update of late 2024?

WTG elder pickle ball peops 🤣🤣🤣!

@yakkystuff I'm fairly sure you're safe to ignore the three portion thing and take it to be around 70 Cal for the 113g container. That company has a few products that are around 70 to 85 Cal per 113g. And I found pretty much no 1% yogurts that are more than 100 cal per 113g. Even whole milk come in at less than 1 Cal per…

5 green grape bunnies! 3 garden picked cherry tomato bunnies!

Yo Christina! Chicken and eggs and country sounds like a great opportunity to become more active as you lose weight. Both—moderate activity in a substantial dosage AND weight reduction in a substantial dosage (as I did lose a good 45% of my original weight)—worked together to bring my bloodwork levels into mid normal…

By your eldest or your elders?🤣 Trying to figure out who did the smoking????🤔

That's a cake for sure!😎 What else are we having?🤣 Happy birthday !!!🎈 🎂

Subway 6"? Double cheese? Their 6" cheese is usually in the 14g range. Canadian values for cheese on 6" range from 40 to 60 Cal from processed to Monterey!🤔

Helps to have MET vs Met and MET # would be an indicator that you're discussing metabolic equivalents (MET / METS). While MET 3 to 6 are labeled "moderate" level exercises do not make the mistake of dissing them as useless or thinking you *must* achieve higher intensity to derive plenty of health benefit
-
Now. Confounding factors in terms of judging the MET level most certainly would include current ability to exercise and the effect of medications. That's where things such as GPS tracking — f.e. during walks — would come into play to tell us how many (objective) minutes of moderate speed we achieved… which may or may not…

Sounds like you're doing awesome…. except when it comes to searching!!!! :lol!: FIRST thing that came up for me when I punched it in to see why it didn't work and figure out which drug was intruding!!!! Just… MET 3.0(+) in google as is!
-
Talk to dr type people in person! According to credible internet searching, JUST by creating a deficit (without even the extra trigger of counting and recording) you can re-trigger an ED when so susceptible. I note that WHAT you eat (which is what I assume you mean by mentioning the word 'healthier') is NOT the same as…

% of people has familial cholestole-y-some-thing will look up when phone not acting up 😜 I.e. blood cholesterol corresponds to food cholesterol. The rest of us it mostly doesn't. Curious: have you lost or gained weight in the past little while? Are you more or less active or about the same? Active can be sort of brisk…

That sounds like an awesome salad!😎 You kids are cooking/eating out awesome 😎 Me? Just spent 935 Cal or so on an... Ok-y-sh meal! Foot long subway turkey breast no mayo or other dressing, all the veggies including hot, pepper only, yes to the peppery monterey Jack with a bag of Doritos and a courtesy cup of water from the…

Yup. Calories matter. What they're made off also matters and both interact to make things easier or harder on you. The Twinkies only diet can-and can be show to-work. The quarter pounder cheese no bun diet also works. The bananas only diet also works. None of them would work for 10 years for me. All of them between some…

I think your height and weight conversion was correct, but I alert that the BMI this works out to us not just over 25 but actually just over 27 So maintenance minus would be my own take....

As far as I remember there is no requirement to log a particular meal. The reminders should be user configurable and would be exactly that: a reminder. I would just carry on logging the food i eat. As a side note and fully realizing the intricate details of determining one's exact weight level (especially when the number…

Sounds like a fun full plate of kids 😎 And the things you find out! Wow! Bird Lego👍🏼 Maybe I should start playing with Lego again! I wonder if my blocks are still stashed in a corner of a closet in another continent! 🤔
-
Yikes! You were stabbed! At least you WANTED to be! @yakkystuff I admit that it sounds… too formal for me! And complicated. To some degree part of this particular group is to remind people / ourselves to try to keep in mind that MAKING IT EASY ENOUGH for us is a requirement in order to KEEP ON GOING. The PERFECT diet that…

Double posts are an issue more with the phone I think. but they're annoying! Sorry!

However I will re-echo my previous for many reasons. Don't just make this a race where you just ratchet eating less together, moving more to the max, drop drop drop, fast fast fast. Yes feeling good is awesome. Yes you can (and should) do more. But use your time wisely to find long term "do-able" things not just short term…
