  • I agree, ktec, it's just frustrating because pork is still pork, you know? It's alright. It's just one more small hurdle.
  • I think I need to get a bigger scale. It errors out at 4 oz so I usually just use it for dishes with many smaller amounts of food, like stir fry. I ended up scooping out 18 cups of the pork and that helped a lot to bring the calories down, although it was still more than I thought. I'm just baffled on why recipes I pull…
  • Ditto that. I have the same routine, ha ha. I'm also a biologist. I like having data. For example, I can look at my chart and pinpoint the week I started exercising and weight training (body weight went up a little and stayed the same for a while). Even if the scale is up a bit one morning, I don't let it get to me. I…
  • I'm not a mom but I'm definitely busy. I go to classes five times a week, I'm in two clubs, work a part time job, and play music in a group. When I started losing weight I wasn't sure what to do. My life consisted of prepackaged food and take out. When I found MFP, I didn't really think it would work for me. I did it's…
  • Dang, I wish MFP would have given me that many calories, ha ha. I'm doing 1800 a day. I'm 5'10" and 261 (down from 285 when I started using this app)
  • I just moved to Gunnison from the springs. Are you talking about the incline in Manitou? I haven't attempted it yet, but I would like to do it when I visit the springs in the next few weeks. Congratulations! That's a challenge!
  • I've lost close to 25 lbs in 9 weeks as well! (I started my weight loss journey a few weeks before getting MFP). It's slowing down a bit now but becoming a more steady loss. My goal is to lose between 80 and 100 lbs, so between 60 and 80 more to go! Keep it up! I'm also looking for new friends as well!
  • More veins?!? I can't wait! How cool is that? I was just thinking today, my appetite has really increased which seems to counter losing weight. The thing is that before, I think I craved sweets and "comfort" food. Now when I haven't eaten in a while, my body tells me right away! Usually I'm craving good foods. Fruits and…
  • Man, I feel like that when I'm walking to class or jog for 45 seconds on the treadmill.
  • Thank you all! I'm glad to be here!
  • I am by no means an expert and I only know what has worked for me so far. I have read what you are describing and had the same happen to me a while back. I was losing weight steadily, then I started to excersize and my weight climbed a little... And then stopped. I was very perplexed and did some research. Starting a…
