I have found it recently and I love it. I was expecting the texture to be terrible but it's not bad. I generally use it instead of creme fraich in my lunch salads with a little mayo and finally i can have the propper amount of dressing on my mixtures lol

I switched to decaf as I love it and drink a lot. Now when I sometimes need the caffeine rush normal coffee really works. I have also switched to sweetener so now it's jus a half a cup of milk worth of nutrients and that fits into my diet perfectly. I think nothing is good/bad, it depends how you use it x

Joining late so on day 2, side planks. It was actually easier then normal planks... or maybe having my fav music on made the time go quicker?

I only read this thread yesterday so I am behind. This morning 3x45 sec low plank done. It was hard... but I am optimistic I can take it one day at the time. Good luck everyone xxx

I think it is a combination of all three I will remember! My deficit is probably quite small. Anyway whatever is going on i love it. I just wanted to understand my body better to keep up the good relationships lol

I do martial arts, conditioning and jogging, ocasionally bodyweight. Although it's not much it is definitely a huge change from a year ago. So ig definitely makes sense about being new to excercise. I keep my protein between 60 and 70 grams daily (5ft10 and 63 kg). It is interesting about nerves getting used to excercise.…

I was counting for a few month and then I started college and it got too tedious. My biggest problem was always snacking so cutting those seems to do the trick, I am keeping up the changes and new habbits and results are visible.

Thank you all for your input x Actually aftereading some of the replies and articles suggested I feel better abouf doing them, it is fascinating how one mention of them being military excercise can change the perception... I think i will continue with them for now till I feel ready to change the to burpees ( my nemesis and…

If they are to raise my heart rate up would't it make more sense to do them at the beginning of the set? I do a warm up anyway in thd beginning, and the breaks are really short ( 20 sec) so maybe I could do without them...

Maybe I am too hard on myself but I do not consider my jog to be a serious workout, it gets my heart rate nicely up, but it is more for willpower than anything else. That's why I was thinking about some strengh after a jog, I am then nicely warmed up... "deadlifts & bent-over rows using freeweights, since those movements…

So you think my tkd is a strengh training? I wasn't sure, but it makes sense, after just 4 months i feel I am much stronger

I am guessing they are truly worried that something may happen to you and they can't communicate it or even realize it, so they just argue and criticise. I am the person who for years fought with mum over my choices and although i was constantly saying i am happy she always knew better what should make me happy. So I know…

I searched online for calculators how to get your basic metabolic rate and mine is 1415. So that's just how much i need to stay alive. My goal is 1500 and i am loosing at a steady pace even thogh I trnd to overeat slightly. My advice would be stick to mfp and get used to logging and see how it goes. Good luck xx

Thanks!

I had that with my first snack that I logged, pumpkin seeds. I happily scanned and logged the packet snd then deleted, measure 25 g, cried a little and then slowly savoured every little seed...

I survived :) Prep was quite bad for me. I wasn't hungry it was the volume of fluid to drink and the fact that someone thought it is a good idea to put vanilla flavour in a salty drink that made it hard. I actually throw up maybe half of a glass (9th of 16 total) but my bowels were properly cleaned. Apart from the prep i…

You are in a good place. I have joined two weeks ago and I already see the results. And I was always saying I can't possibly be on a diet, I love food too much. Turns out I enjoy my food even more and get rid of my wobbly belly at the same time. People here are amazing, plenty of good, solid advice, very friendly…

I run every other day first thing in the morning. It is a short jog, maybe 20 min, plus 10 min marching. On empty stomach, just water before. I like it because it gives me energy boost and the time does not disrupt my day. It's all personal preference...

I frazed that poorly, I meant it saves fields from using other, not so effective herbicides. You end up with a field where only your crop grows, all the weeds are selectively killed. As for using a lot of round up... show me a farmer who will throw away money buying more than necessary.

Digital. Maybe it said somewhere in a long lost manual that I shouldn't put them in upright position... Anyway, they are really accurate, i checked no things up to 5 kg that I could weigh on my food scale and they are spot on. So I just have to measure twice.

I like weighing myself daily, it is my little morning routine. Sometimes it went up and then down again. I keep a paper journal also where I put only weekly weight and measurements. I think I would freak out if the weighing day would be the one that I went up and then waiting whole week for the next result I would be too…

Suddenly turned out I am 1.4 kg lighter :) I am not gonna log it though, that would ruin my nice trend. It will be my sweet secret

I got to the bottom of this. I don't know if I should feel silly that i was doing this or proud that I figured it out... I put my scale away in vertical position. The first measurement after i put it flat is higher. If it's flat and I repeat measurement it stays the same, if i stand it and put it down again it goes up.…

I started mfp two weeks ago. I was really enjoying my snacks, especially late at night when I would reward myself after a hard day. Now I know i could easily snack on 1000-1500 kcal! When I started i mainly wanted to know how many kcal i actually consume. I have a realistic goal and I take it slowly. I eat the same food as…

Non GMO is one of the principles of organic farming and although they are not the same I think there is a huge overlap. The point was raised about personal impact on farmers and economy and this is one of the biggest misconception about gmo crops, they are actually better, easier and safer in terms of profit than non gmo.…

I would advise you to hear opinions of real farmers and food producers. Many of them tried organic production and found it unsustainable. Knowing how round up works and how it saves fields from use of herbicides, having crops that are pest resistant and therefore eliminating the use of pesticides these are the things that…

It's within 300 calories, is this ok you think? I used mfp to set my calories, I also checked somwhere else and my bmr was 1480 so that gives me 1770 with a sedentary lifestyle. I am never close to this without exercising that day. I am trying to choose my battles carefully now so this whole weight losing don't overwhelm…

One thing came to my mind: egs as a substitute for noodles on clear soup. I beat the egg with a pinch of salt till it's all even colour and pour on the simmering clear soup. Cook for one minute. They completely take the flavour from the stock and the texture is like very delicate noodles. Or you can't feel them at all.…

That is me exactly! I am really glad I asked, reading about others' experiences really helps. I need to call rom and clarify my diet for Friday, the plan is written with advice for diabetics mixed in and there are some conteadictions

My son has aspergers and he won't eat fruit or veg, it's the texture... But in smoothies he drinks the strangest fruit combinations and he loves it. While I would love him to eat not drink his fruit it is still so much better than supplements.
