I'm waiting for my Versa replacement. I don't know what happened but when I first got my Versa, the battery lasted several days. The last month or so the battery died every day after about 10 hours. Fitbit customer service was great though and had me do some testing and have sent me a new one due to a bad battery under…

Kind of boring but was really good...Baked chicken breast on a salad with avocado, ranch dressing, lettuce, radishes, onions and tomato. I had been craving a salad because I hadn't had one for a while. Also had a hot wing.

Congrats to you! I also have my goal set for 160 and I am 5'4. Last time I was at that weight, I was very satisfied as was my dr and hubby! That was 10 years ago. I'm down 26 lbs and have 34 to go to make that goal. Who knows, I may try to go lower but I'm older and I don't think I want to eat as little as I would need to…

I like to make the fathead dough up ahead of time in proportioned balls and keep in refrigerator. Pull them out and pop in microwave for a few seconds to soften and use to wrap hot dogs or sausages or flatten out to make a pizza. I use a tortilla press with parchment paper and it makes it easy. Even my non-keto husband…

I have not, but wanted to send good thoughts your way. I have a dear friend who has had melanoma twice but it was discovered very early. He has to have very frequent check ups. I would think that concentrating on healthy foods and some enjoyable exercise with the advice of your doctors would be good. I would think that…

Mixed PB2 with honey and spread on a toasted mini wheat bagel. Yummy!

This was kind of clean out the refrigerator night. chicken taco salad--chicken breast meat on romaine lettuce and thin sliced cabbage with pico de gallo, a little chopped red pepper, cooked mixed frozen veggies (corn, peas, carrots, etc.) 2 Tbl of HEB green sauce, and a couple of shakes of the green Tobasco jalapeño sauce…

Thank you for taking the time and posting!

I'm not afraid of a little processing for this low calorie delight!

Me. I've lost 28 lbs just following MFP, measuring and logging my food very accurately. I did no exercise at all the first couple of months and slowing started walking recently. I'm losing at the exact rate MFP says I should. Started middle of Sept. I'm 60 and retired so I'm very happy with my results.

Helpful hint from someone on here in the past to help with the Recipe Builder... I weighed my pots & dishes empty and wrote down those weights (in grams is easier) in a little notebook that I keep in the kitchen with the calculator on my phone and my scale. While I'm cooking I jot down and enter in MFP. When the dish is…

I cooked the potatoes and hard boiled eggs together at the same time and then made them into potato salad. I have another brand of pressure cooker.

I've lost exactly what MFP says I would lose (set 1.5/sedentary) but I am a lot older than you--60 and a little heavier. CW is 216 and same height. I started out not exercising at all, then just making sure I got to 5000 steps on my fitbit for the last few weeks, but not eating more than 1200 calories (except on Christmas…

amarneu -- When I started out on MFP, I set myself to sedentary because I was very..... and older, short and retired. I decided to wait until I lost a little before I started purposeful exercise. When I first connected my Fitbit, it took away calories because I moved so little. I notice that I have a subtraction of…

Well, not really recipes but besides roasting veggies, I've cooked hamburger patties, chicken thighs--boneless, skinless and shake and bake crumb covered, black bean burger patties, hot dogs, toasted sandwiches--use toothpicks to keep the bread from blowing off. I use for things that I could do in toaster oven or pan on…

I have a Fitbit Flex -- first version. It is a great motivator for me to get up and move. It has a few alarms you can set to buzz you but I recently found a phone App called Stand up that has great alarms you can set and it reminds me every 30 min (or whatever you set) to get up and move. Yes, I am that lazy! I know you…

Same as jelleigh does. I like my modified 5:2 and do it along with my hubby and adult son. We usually do our low cal on Mondays and Thursdays. My hubby REALLY wants to do 5:2 so I started going along for support but it is working for me. On my other days I eat 1400-1500 (which MFP gives me to lose 1 pound per week). I'm…

Maybe I had fantastic insurance (or a very persuasive plastic surgeon) but they paid for a tummy tuck because my doc told them that I had rashes and hanging skin. This was about 13 years ago. They removed 10 pounds of tissue and cinched up my abdominal muscles. I had lost about 130 pounds. My tummy looked a lot like the…

I'm not sure that anyone mentioned that some portion sizes on the labels of food are way off. I just bought some sliced swiss cheese and the slices weigh twice as much as it shows on the label. If that happens often to the foods you eat regularly, your deficit is not as much as you think and you won't lose like you are…

I thought if you update your weight in MFP weekly, at the appropriate time, it will give you a lower calorie goal to match how much you are set to lose (1 pound or however much you set). Am I wrong? I've lost about 15 and looking back it has lowered my daily calories about 10 since starting. I didn't do anything to do that…

I asked the same question about tuna. Search this in the database: salmon canned usda drained

I do the Mosley version of 5:2 not total fasting.

On my 2 fast days, I try to wait until lunch to eat. I'll have black coffee in the morning. Some of my fasting meals: A pouch of tuna mixed with a little mustard, light salad dressing (very little), chopped onion and celery and sugar free sweet relish or dill if you prefer. Mix up and eat on some shredded cabbage (bag from…

I've been doing 5:2 for just over a month. I've lost 8 lbs. I have MFP set to lose 1 pound a week which gives me 1500 calories a day. I eat only my 500 calories on Mondays and Thursdays and just stick to my 1500 on the other days. That has me at really just under 1200 per day on average. This is fine for me because I am…

I love to cut up zucchini or brussels sprouts and use a misto to spray a little oil on and season up real good and cook in the air fryer for about 15 to 20 minutes, shaking occasionally. I've cooked salmon, burger patties, hot dogs, chicken thighs, bean burgers, grilled sandwiches and little pizzas. I love how it contains…

Sounds like a jerk so you are probably not going to change him. So just ignore him and prove him wrong!

I am so sorry for all of you who had parents that would leave you in the hospital like that! When my father, husband, son are in the hospital, I don't want to be anywhere else except with them there! I don't always spend the night but I just want to be there with them as much as I possibly can. I can't even imagine leaving…

I've started weighing every day and log it on Happy Scale app. I know that I fluctuate and sometimes I don't lose but every two weeks. I didn't want to drive my MFP friends crazy with reports so I decided to just log weight on MFP once a week. IMHO if you are weighing MORE than once a day, you are obsessing and need to…
