Hi all. With the newsfeed gone, I’m going over to Lose It! It has everything I needed from MFP, a good community and activity feed and it’s cheaper. Hope to see some of you there. I’m active under “Kat” and in the MFP Exodus group.

  • I eat mine back if I’m hungry or feel low on energy. I don’t eat then back when I feel fine/full. You can also eat back some vs all. Do what feels best for you.

  • Lots of factors can effect BP. Weight, salt intake, caffeine, activity, stress. Best option would be to check with doctor or consider purchasing a blood pressure cuff (if you can afford them...Walmart and other pharmacies usually sell them), do a reading first thing in the morning, another in the evening, and look at…

  • I use the fitbot app on my phone to plan out my workouts ahead of time. Each workout comes with a quick little video on how to do whatever exercise (free weights, machines, etc. that you select. It at least gives me an idea if I’m doing it right.

  • I like overnight oats myself. 2 cups fruit (any), 2 cups plain Greek yogurt, 2 cups milk, 2 cups old fashioned oats (the quick type, not steel cut), 1/2 cup nuts (any), and 2 Tbs maple syrup. Mix it all up, let it sit in fridge overnight. Enjoy. Makes about 4-6 servings, depending on how you want to divvy it up.

  • I’ve seen friends do that on Ideal Protein. Is it healthy...doubt it. They have to take a bunch of supplements to make up what they’re not getting from their food. Is it sustainable...not for most people. Unless it’s under doctors orders/supervision, I’d never recommend it or do it.

  • I definitely recommend what the other posters said about getting back to a deficit and then reverse dieting from there until you get to a maintenance level of calories that keeps your weight stable.

  • I'm not a fitness/weightlifting expert, but at that calorie intake, I'm not sure how well you're going to build muscle. At best, i would try to stick to preserving as much muscle as you can until you get to your goal weight, then bulking. Your calories also seem excessively restrictive and low, in my opinion. If you're…

  • I use Happy Scale and weigh daily. I like the data and Happy Scale smooths out the fluctuations a bit, making it easier to see how I’m doing overall. If I didn’t use that app, I’d probably stick to weekly weigh ins in order not to get discouraged. 🤷🏼‍♀️

  • Well, I lost my progress by getting lazy, not logging, and letting old habits reassert themselves. I’m hoping it won’t happen this time around. Regular weigh in’s, logging (even if it’s imperfect), and just building those better habits. I’m hoping this time it will stick. I’m too tired to go through the yo-yoing again. 😔
