"A fool's errand" - oh, so, sweet and helpful! :* Thanks so much to those of you who offered helpful insight! I'll definitely just count slices and figure 1/12 from now on :)

Lol it wasn't rectangular. It was round. But cut "party style" into waaaay more than twelve slices, although their site claimed there were 12 slices. If anyone is familiar with Larosa's - that was the place.

It's 1450 right now

I read on one of the boards that mfp will alert me.....but I haven't seen it happen.

Thank you, everyone!!

Ok - I'll try that - and it brings me to the dreaded "how do you weigh spaghetti" question....looking online was no help

Thanks, everyone!! I truly appreciate the suggestions!

Thanks, everyone!

But I'm a little confused. At the end of the week should we have a deficit in order to lose at all - or just being within the weekly allotment will make you lose? Maybe having a higher deficit allows you to lose more and being right at the allotted calories you only likely lose what's projected? Sorry but I'm still really…

Oh yeah, I have 70 pounds to lose in order to be where I think I'm supposed to be for my height. Do you have a certain place you look in order to see what your optimal weight should be? I found a site but I'm not sure it's some authentic site. I am not sure that I'll get to my optimum weight, but losing at least 50 is my…

Ok good - I was worried that I was doing something harmful to my body. I weighed in on Sunday and apparently "lost" five more pounds (water weight??) through today. That's like a pound a day. It is amazing to see the scale move like this, but I wanted to know if it was ok and when it would likely start to slow down. Thanks…

That's a great idea - I think I'll start that because I was weighing in on Sundays.

Where do I go to see "negative adjustments"?

Thanks, guys :)

In MFP I am set to sedentary, even though I don't know if that's true or not. I teach kindergarten and within the walls of my classroom I'm pretty busy. I just don't think my activity warrants much.

I downloaded the Google app but still can't add my info via my iPhone - any other suggestions? I would ask someone to add me but shouldn't I be able to add my own info weekly?

Nice idea.....I will attempt!

I need to begin exercising. I've put that off and only just began counting calories this week. I teach kindergarten and I'm exhausted when I get home. There are no excuses. I just need to do it.

Thanks, guys. I will definitely need to look things up when it comes to restaurants. One of my major downfalls is McDonald's coke. I hate diet coke but love,love, love their coke lol! I've gone a week without it and have been drinking so much water. Yes, I do want this to be a lifetime change. One of my biggest problems is…
