  • I do feel hungrier at times...it might be Splenda. I have to try to stop it for a week and see what happens. I love sweets so I'm trying to get it through Splenda.
  • I ask this question alot myself and the only thing I ever hear is "calorie in calorie out" . there must be a few tips out there right??
  • It sounds like you are doing good eating veggies when the cravings hit! Can you add a little more exercise on your break at work??
  • I'm not sure..but I will take your advice and change my settings. I already had my mfp set to sedentary. Maybe I shouldn't link it to mt mfp.
  • I hear you should only count half of the calories you burn on these trackers.
  • You can add me too.
  • This thread has been really helpful. I'm going to keep exercising and will take 25% off the readout number and see if that will help. I have stated weighing my food but I do eat out frequently so there's alot of guessing. Its really hard. I just want to lose 10lbs!! Thanks to all

  • The struggle is so real. I can eat up all my calories by lunch and I'm still hungry. I'm going to try the water and yogurt trick too and see what happens.
  • I'm definitely not doing this right. I thought that the number mfp gave me plus any exercise would be the number I need each week to lose 1 pd. Since I can't get an accurate number for calories burned this is going to be soo much harder. I work out to get extra calories so I can have a treat at the end of the day. :(

  • I typically do 45 min of cardio which the machines I do say is about 540 calories and I put 500 into MFP. I end each day using every single calorie alloted. Which includes the 500. If I workout. I do this 3-4 x a week
