Where do you find that data on MFP? I just searched around for it and can't locate it in my app. I have some comments but would like to math first :smile:

I'm another vote for cook it yourself. I've never had frozen prepared chicken I enjoyed, and you'll also pay more for it. You can slice up a breast or two and pan saute it in 10-15 minutes with a little oil and whatever seasoning you like. Garlic and lemon and pepper is great!

There was a guy the day I did my first 5k, who did the 10k race in 40 minutes. I was dumbfounded.

This year I'm gonna master all three splits, and handstands! Oh and last year I wanted to do a pull-up but dang that shiz is hard, I should make a proper program and try again.

Technically you connect MFP to the Health app.

I'll at least go for a long walk, even if it's slow.

Make dinner bigger! I used to hoard calories for the good snacks and *kitten* after dinner but they aren't really filling foods so they are really just a 'mouth experience' more than anything nutritional or satisfying. Eating more of the veggies and meat and whatnot at lunch and dinner keeps those cravings to a minimum.…

I had 40lbs to lose and set to 1lb a week, as I didn't want to be deprived and was ok with settling in to a routine. Somewhere in my mind was also "the longer this takes, the further I am from having that moment when I just go back to my old ways" which I know is weird cognitive dissonance but I feel like it worked because…

Yoghurt or cottage cheese and a fruit cup, and I take a 100-150 cal something for directly after.

Also take ten minutes after every workout and stretch, it will make a marked difference immediately if you're not doing it already.

Foam roller, or for quads and IT band I prefer the little handheld stick with rollers on type thing. A tennis ball also works. Tiger balm is good. Alternating heat and ice and rest if you really messed something up.

I'm sure HIIT has plenty benefits but I don't care for it. I just gave it a good try, couple times a week for 8-9 weeks and one day I was just like why am I still doing this.

I do 30-40 minutes of cardio most days and switch between doing upper and lower body weight stuff depending on the evenings I am also skating (I avoid doing legs that day or the morning after). I just do 3-4 sets of 10-12 reps of 5-7 things that I feel like I want to do. I'm not growing a ton of muscle because I haven't…

I just watched a Buzzfeed (I know, I know) video where 3-4 pals got together and did it as a group, so they got to share the work and also get a little more variety in what they bought and prepped. I think I'd do that if I could find others to go in on it.

Have you ever tried those "Minute Rice" cups? They are pretty decent and they go on "sale" a lot. Tear the lid off, microwave for one minute. Done.

There's plenty of good and bad info everywhere, not sure I've ever seen YouTube singled out. Anyways, for some actual science, do click through. It wasn't meant to be a mean trap.

I think I’m triggering a bunch of people who could save themselves some smug self satisfaction if they took they trouble to observe what they think they are commenting on.

Can you still get diet cherry vanilla anywhere? That stuff was delicious.

Yeah it’s the opposite of that. She’s a health and fitness vlogger but is also a scientist doing her PhD. She comes down on the side of them being perfectly safe, but good thing you were able to judge so well.

The consensus is that unless you are weighing and logging accurately, your questions are unanswerable.

They have the texture of plastic and no overriding good flavour. Hard pass for me.

I love the Supersizers shows! I've watched them all a couple of times. Still not sure why it's called that though.

My day of food tracked is between getting up in the morning and going to sleep at night, not 12-12.

20 minutes of ab work a couple times a week, weight loss, and hoping for the best :smiley:

Supersize v Superskinny is a fun one on YouTube, Fat Families too. There's another short series (I think 3-4 episodes) presented by the woman who does Secret Eaters where she tried all the horrible diets like "the apple diet" and stuff, that was entertaining.

I lost a lot of my boobs, I was in 38Cs and 36DDs and am probably a charitable 34B now - even measured into a 32 band but it felt binding so I prefer the 34 (also more easy to find). That was a 40lbs loss from 175 to 135.

I don't understand how you would track it as anything other than it is?

What kind of exercise? How many calories above 1500? And what is your height and weight?

I skate roller derby and have hit a few parks for the first time this year!

Oh it read like they have handwash labels! I don't tumble dry any of my workout stuff and lay it all flat to dry. I like it enough to be mindful :smile:
