  • Man, spent a week away from home and it flubbed the losing weight. 191.2 when I was aiming at 187. Oh well, the closest I got was 188. At 191.2, I need to lose 16.2 pounds to hit my goal weight. July will be a better month :) Can't cry about losing 6 pounfs in a month, lol. Let's go!
  • SW 6/1: 197 CW 6/18: 191.6 (Lost 5.4, 4.6 more to lose) CW 6/22: 189 (8 pounds lost, 2 more to lose) GW 7/1: 187 Amazing that appropriate eating and exercise can fix in 4 days what a holiday messed up in 2 :wink:
  • On June 1, I weighed 197 pounds. June 18 I weighed 191.6. 5.4 pounds lost, another 4.6 to go. Father's day will set me back a bit along with my trip to IL for family reunion, but I will try my darnedest to be at 187 before July 1 hits.
  • I've been in challenge mode with myself since April 1, 2016. I will join this challenge since I would like to lose another 22.4 pounds by August 12th.
  • My 'aha!' moment was earlier today when I stepped on the scale and it read 198.4 instead of 200-something. Took me 60 days to lose that 30+ pounds to get below the 200s, but I have maintained steady loss with healthy food choices and increasing my exercise (cardio AND strength) activity as the weight comes off. I can…
  • Congrats, I have lost about the same since starting MFP on April 1, 2016. I, unfortunately, have another 13Kg (~28 pounds) to go.

  • I have used MapMyRun, MapMyWalk, and MapMyFitness in conjuction with MFP and UA Record. I also have a UA Band that tracks steps just like any other wearable tech. I have not seen too many discrepancies using these in combination.
  • Right now, I am finding that UA Record and MFP communicate fairly well together. I am using both along with MapMyWalk and MapMyFitness so that the data is shuttled to MFP first and then to UA Record. So far I have not experienced any issues with doing it this way for about two months now. I have been reading about issues…
  • If you are talking about UA Record, I have the calorie adjustment labeled in my MFP diary, but 9 times out of 10 my MFP calories burned is more than my UA calories burned. It is set not to allow for negative adjustments, so I don't really see any impact as MFP is always higher. What I do use is MapMyFitness and MapMyWalk…
  • I have the application UA Record, I have also started a group named UA Band Users, but it is for anyone using or considering using UA products like the UA Record app, UA Band, etc. I combine UA Record with MapMyWalk or MapMyFitness applications to get better accuracy.
  • UA Record in combination with the MapMyFitness or the MapMyWalk application is accurate for me for the past two months. I have either of those two apps send info to MFP, and the UA Record pulls from MFP.
  • I use the UA Record app, I have it linked to my UA Band, and I set the app to take food consumption from MFP, so it does not overestimate calories. The app is a little bit redundant for the purposes of logging weight as I log my weight here, but in combination with the MapMyFitness or MapMyWalk applications, it really does…
  • I've been on here for a month and have lost 23 pounds in that time. I am interested in sharing my journey with as many people as I can. My plan is to lose another 32 pounds over the next 12 weeks or so. I've not got a lot of "friends" on here at this point (a whole 3...coworker, family member, and one other person), but I…
  • 21 Day Streak...did not get serious about all of this until April 1 (Fool's Day)...so technically 19 days. I figured it would be kind of appropriate to start a diet/exercise program on that day of all days since I normally end up feeling like a fool when I don't lose weight. I got the UA Band to help assist in the weight…
  • I misread. See the comments below mine. I would have to agree with them.
