I didn't say that Mt. Dew WAS heroin. I said the way I felt about it was what I imagined it would be like for someone who was on heroin.

I've never tried illegal drugs, but I imagine the feeling I get from Mt Dew is similar to heroin. Seriously. When I realized how much I thought I "needed" it I decided I had to quit.

You can sync your fitbit to MFP and MFP will adjust your calories if…

I just started using my Fitbit flex with MFP and it specifically told me NOT to add my calories to the fitbit system, but add them to MFP. What happens when they sync then is they compare the two and if the fitbit indicates more calories burned than what I input it gives me additional calories. For instance, I walked on…

Wow, this is incredibly powerful to me! I have more than 100 pounds to lose it certainly seems nearly impossible. But when you put it in the context of losing 1 pound 100 times? I can do that. And so can you!
