The only experience I have is with Fitbit - I've had the Flex and now have the Charge - I really like them, and they sync with MFP (not sure if the ones you are looking at do as well). I got the Charge b/c my elliptical's heartrate monitor was not giving me accurate readings and I didn't know if I was exercising…

A great website is www.veganessentials.com - they have all kinds of things, not only food items but also beauty items. Also, a great artisan vegan cheese website is www.VtopianCheeses.com - you can get their cheeses cheaper than from Vegan Essentials, but it takes a bit longer to deliver. And now there are tons of…

I didn't take any pics during my walk at lunch, but I saw two ducks resting in the middle of the trail, and two big blue herons!

Thank you for posting about your wonderful transformation, and including details. I've been losing steadily for 3 months, but the last couple of weeks I've been so "good" with exercising and calorie deficits, and haven't lost any pounds, which made me very depressed at this last weigh-in. It helps to read that this…

While not condoning your husband's passive aggressive punishment, I have heard several tales of men feeling threatened when the wife loses a lot of weight - they are secretly afraid that you will find a newfound confidence, and they think that men will hit on you at the gym, which leads them then to think that you'll…

I live in Granite Falls, WA, and would like to be added to your hiking list! I am available Sunday the 12th for a hike - doesn't matter how long it is. I have some favorite healthy restaurants in/around Seattle, but due to food sensitivies that give me eczema, I eat vegan and gluten free, so not sure if anybody wants to…

When I started my weight loss journey I decided to focus on non-weight goals, so I decided I would walk 4 times a week, for 1 hour each time. I also decided I would log ALL of my food in MFP and keep to the calories designated for me by the weight-loss equation. I only allowed myself a weigh-in once a week - that kept me…

When I first started logging in MFP it helped to see the calories in a portion - then I could take a quarter off the portion size the next time I ate the same thing - eventually you can get down to a small portion of the high-calorie item/treat, and you did it gradually so you don't feel like you're missing out. Also, I've…

My husband had tried to give up coffee before but the cold turkey plan didn't stick. This time his doctor said to give it up so he can try to get off his blood pressure meds, and he did a very gradual withdrawal, and he didn't get any headaches, and now he doesn't drink any coffee at all. He did replace it with tea, but he…

I am semi-vegan (the only non-vegan thing I eat is fish). I was pescatarian for a while but recently got diagnosed with medical issues due to food sensitivities, so after a blood test I had to cut out eggs, gluten, wheat, yeast, the little dairy I still did, and a bunch of other stuff. Also, I am not "fit" quite yet, but…
