  • I do Super Sets where you go from one exercise to the next with no rest, then rest only 2 minutes before starting over. I also love doing circuit training with weights. I do 3 reps of each exercise (usually 8-10 different exercises) without stopping for 5 rounds, then take a 2 minute break. Then I do 3 rounds and another 2…
  • Got any info on that? Always looking for new weight lifting programs. Wishing you the best!
  • For losing weight, there is no way to choose where to lose it from. Just lose it everywhere! As far as working on the thighs, all those horrible leg workouts (squats, lunges, deadlifts, leg curls, leg lifts, etc.) will help with that, or perhaps cardio (anything from walking to running to incline on a treadmill or hiking)…
  • Wishing it didn't go so slow. No matter how many times I've done this, I know it takes weeks and months and years to get where I want. But it is frustrating when I feel I've been working so hard for a few weeks and barely anything has happened. Or I see no change myself in photos or the mirror. Just that desire for it to…
  • Can you post a screenshot of what it is showing perhaps?
  • https://myfitnesspal.desk.com/customer/portal/emails/new Have you tried this page? Is this where the reCAPTCHA won't work? Hopefully you can get in touch with someone.
  • Thank you! Feel free to add me if you would like, I try to motivate without being too annoying :)
  • Do you use FitBit or something similar to get your steps? If you use something that you can link to MFP, just link it and choose "Allow negative adjustments" and let it do the work for you for the most part. If it doesn't link, then I would probably set it to moderately active and then adjust as things work or don't work.
  • If it happens for one week, I don't do anything, continue as normal. If it happens for two weeks, I don't do anything, continue as normal. If it happens for three weeks, I don't do anything, continue as normal. If it happens for four weeks, then I start looking at what I am eating and adjust.
  • Yep. You could technically say that I do cheat meals on Saturday, but I really don't. I eat food I enjoy but still do my best to keep them in my caloric range. Changing your mindset about food will make the biggest difference. Think of it less as a punishment or a reward, as something you "really want to taste and have"…
  • Looking it up by name (great value Chunk Light Tuna in water) pulled up the first result as the wrong one. That is the danger of this site, believing everything that is seen :lol: Sometimes the scanning is incorrect or old and not updated
  • I think you can mark it as inaccurate but it will just inform someone somewhere, but won't actually change anything. When I find that food is incorrect, I create my own food with the updated information.
  • Click on the picture of the person you want to add, click on the picture when it pops up again. Then (on the app) click the shapes of the people on the right and add them or (on the PC) click "Add as Friend"
  • I have not had a baby though I started with 130 pounds to lose and am down to needing to lose just over 85 pounds. Be careful with losing 2 pounds per week. When we have a lot to lose, it isn't much of a problem, but as you start getting closer you will need to tighten that goal, especially if you are wanting to maintain…
  • Who keeps saying old? You're never too young to make a better you!
  • -Walking, even around the house -Walking up and down stairs -Using stairs for calf exercises -Body weight exercises including (but not limited to) push-ups, planks, lunges, squats, speed skaters, knee raises, kicks, shadow boxing, dips on the couch, etc. That is like a fraction of a fraction of what you can do. YouTube…
  • What brand of canned Tuna was it? Unfortunately, even when you scan things into MFP, it goes off of what other people added, so you have to double-check that it is the correct one. You may need to hunt around and if that doesn't work, create your own food with all of the correct information.
  • Click on the picture of the person you want to add, then click on the next picture that pops up. Then (if in the app) click on the images of bodies and add or (if on the PC) click on "Add as Friend" and add them.
  • :cookie: :cookie: :cookie: I have them!
  • You can use the barcode scanner, but just double-check when you do scan. Sometimes, the information brought up is not updated with the correct statistics.
  • You have already done it. Say "no thank you" and then don't. If they choose to be offended because you do not want to partake, that is their problem. I get pushers all the time and if I have to say no once or twenty times, I'll say it and mean it. It is annoying, though...
  • I guess I should also add, I eat almost the same thing every day and it doesn't bother me. I know many can't handle that, but it makes it so easy for me :lol:
  • I still don't think he is in danger, but talking to an actual doctor never hurts :)
  • Utah :/

  • Um, unsafe? I've been drinking hundreds of ounces of water per day for years. In order to reach any level of danger, you have to drink "gallons and gallons of water" which is nearly impossible without trying. Drinking lots of water throughout the day doesn't hurt anyone as long as they are keeping sodium and other…
  • I've only had it automatically adjust a few times and only if I update my weight on the app on my phone. If I do it on the PC, it never automatically adjusts (though it probably should). Just go to My Home, Goals and choose the View Guided Setup and click save (or adjust whatever you want if you want different percentages)…
  • I agree with Danp. Go with eating a percentage of your exercise calories back and then adjust as needed. If you burn 200 calories per day (let's say), then eat 100 calories of that back. Do this for a few weeks and see what your weight loss feels like then adjust either eating more or less depending on the results. Also,…
