Mine gave me credit for cycling at 3:30am while I was asleep and it also showed me as sleeping during that same time

Amazing, your my motivation!

I work night shift so for some reason in my days off I wake at 2am (which is lunch time on a work day) and scavenge. Sometimes I don't even realize I did it until the next morning. Scary and pathetic, . So I started leaving fruit on the kitchen table. That way if I do need/want food it's something healthy. Plus if somehow…

18lbs lost in just over two months!

I have a fit bit flex. I started MFP and got the flex about two weeks after that if I recall correctly. For me it helped a lot! I went from losing and starving to losing and being satisfied. I log all food on mfp and use the fit bit for my exercise. They link so I get my "fitbit calorie adjustment" each day, I eat back my…

Me too! I am unfortunately motivated by food... But in this case on in a good way. I know if I keep moving I can eat more. It works for me :)

Thanks everyone, I think I might do like some of you are suggesting and just take the sugar off the screen. It's always negative :( and it it's kind of a constant failure in my mind so for now I don't think I need it. Thanks again!

Sorry I should have put some more info. I use a fit bit flex so I don't log e exercise unless it's something not step based. I just let fitbit make the adjustments. And I use the app. I'll have to pay attention and see if the sugar goal changes throughout the day. I work night shift so when I logged my lunch, which is…

I've lost 18lbs and still not able to buy a size down. Always been the car for me when losing weight. Never seem to hold on long enough to see the pants size drop. This time I will do it! I have to.

Ugghh me too, tried reboot, uninstall reinstall, nothing. I've hit my 10,000 and nothing. And I've tracked over 2 miles of walking. They need to fix this asap! Lol

Interesting approach. I'm not quite to that point but I can definitely relate. Glad to know I'm not alone lol

Sounds like this will be the road I take. Thanks for sharing

Thanks for the suggestions everyone, I'll try them then make a decision from there

Yes I think your right. I might try a few of the mentioned recipes in hopes of cutting a little bit I think that I'll just have to allot calories for having it the way I enjoy. Thanks :)

Thanks for responding. In kind of in the same boat. I unfortunately need to track everything I eat because I believed I wasn't eating "that bad' as a matter of fact on my second day I ate pretty much as I normally would and I was over 3,000 calories! No wonder I had gained so much. But like you I do not have time or desire…

Thank you everyone for the advice! Not giving up yet :) and just for the record I think my comment about my hubby was interpreted several different ways. I didn't mean for it to sound like he was sabotaging me, he's definitely not doing that. Just would be easier if we all like the same things. But I've decided to try the…

In Right there with you on the last to the table. Double veggies for me sounds like a quick easy tip. Thank you

Great ideas, thank you!

Thanks for the advice!

This seems to be an idea that works, thanks for suggesting it. It takes the stress out of it. Less cooking, less mess, more eating. Thank you for the idea!

This is another great idea, dinner tends to be my least "healthy" meal so yes planning this calories and adjusting the rest of the day may work for me since breakfast kid eat cereal or oatmeal usually and lunch hubby is at work, kids at school, and the kids at home I could easily make something different. Thanks for this…

That's awesome, might just be with a try. I doubt I'd get the same result lol but who knows. Thanks for the idea

It is hard, until it becomes my norm. Not giving up yet. Thank you!

I did this last night, it made sense and removed the stress. Just ate less and made up for quantity with some veggies. Thanks!

My kids are ages 3,5,10,12 :) I think part of my issue is that I don't plan meals. So I get ready to make dinner and I'm scavenging cabinets reading labels and thinking this just won't work. So I guess I need a balance between being prepared and portion control for the not so healthy nights. Thanks for the advice

We eat out about two or the times a week... This is an interesting approach. I usually feel guilty about eating the calories back that I burn through exercise but it's the only say I can get enough food to feel full some days. So your saying that's OK as long as at the end of the day your still under calories? I like that…

Thanks, and good for you for getting → back to it :)

That's a great ideai actually do that some days but then I find Im hungry shortly after. And then i go into a tale soon because I try to find things to fill me up that won't use up my calories. But then I get discouraged and wonder if I should have just ate the regular dinner to begin with. Guess I have some trial and…

I feel you on that apple and some chicken just because it's safe and easy. I think I just need to realize that this isn't going to be easy. Not sure why I let myself believe it would be

I need to lose about forty pounds to get where I'm comfortable in my body and that still would probably be considered "big" to some. But one I get the initial loss done I don't want to do this scrutinizing on a daily basis.
