  • Thank you for the clarification. No you don't need to weigh the spoon before and after you lick it, but a problem people run into is deciding not to log every little thing, those things add up, and then they gain weight even when MFP tells them they should be losing.

  • I checked your food diary. I'm not an expert, but it looks okay to me. You have sources of iron in there, so I'm not sure why you'd be low on hemoglobin. How often do you donate blood?
