  • Thank you for everyone's input :) I'm currently following the caloric intake recommended by MPF and I track most of my workouts via my Fitbit. Unfortunately, lifting heavier (although it might be better for me in the LR) is out of the question as I'm recovering from a lot of rotator cuff damage/thoracic outlet syndrome and…
  • I do use a food scale for things that need to be weighed, yes. I am in university & live with my parents, so sometimes depending on who's cooking, it's not convenient for me to track my calories for that meal (so some days I do skip tracking a meal), but we as a whole eat healthy. I also plan on doing some meal prepping…
  • (Sorry for the double post) Have you tried having more protein during your meals? I find I'm hungriest the days I eat more carbs as opposed to fat/protein (I try to eat 40% carbs, 30% fat & protein each). Honestly, I am most successful in losing weight when I *DON'T* put junk off-limits. Obviously I don't eat it everyday,…
  • Hey everyone :) Name's Katie, I'm 21, weighing in at about 188lbs (it's more fun to say it when you say it like you're a pro boxer or wrestler!!!). I've been on and off the weight loss train, but I've been going to the gym now for over six months and I'm truly ready to get a few pounds off! My upcoming convocation isn't…
  • Corner Brook, NL! Feel free to give an ad (yes, it's as pretty as it looks on Hockey Day in Canada ;) )
  • Thanks so much! I've been trying it this week because my weight training has been pushing me a little bit harder than my previous workouts. I find a 2hr practice I definitely need something after, and when it's late at night the shake does me over until the morning. For me I think it's a lot of hunger control and stops me…
  • This is one you can get at walmart yeah? I think I've had their vanilla but not the chocolate.
  • Alright, not fair!! I'm in NL too and this is really making me wanna take a quick trip to get some while I'm out on the east coast this weekend! Hope you enjoyed it!
  • @4legsRbetterthan2 Thanks for your input! I'm a 3 meal with a couple snacks if necessary kinda gal, but workout days I might have to try something different. Looks like it's going to be a fun week of experiments! @apullum , I don't usually track my macros that intently, but I do try to eat a decent mix of protein/carb/fat.…
  • Newfoundland here :) New to the whole MPF thing but really excited to keep with it and fit into my summer clothes again. :)
  • Hey, Im Katie, and I'm with you on the emotional eating! Using the calorie counter I feel makes me so much more accountable for what I'm eating, drinking, etc. One thing I like to do instead of eat when I'm "emotional" is to brew a nice cup of tea. We have a DAVIDsTEA here and they have a huge selection of caffeine-free…
