  • I'm a long time user and there was a formula for how calories were applied back for energy spent, walking included. I usually only walk these days but I thought it looked like all calories are being awarded back (instead of once you've reached a threshold), but since I can't find the formula, I'm really not sure. Good Luck!
  • Kinda ironic that the bar scan that helps us easily track nutrition is removed as a free perk in light of MFP's selection the The White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health. Unless the honor came with a price tag as sponsorships often do, then it makes sense why MFP would pass the fee to app users. Of all…

  • I can relate to so many of the posts/profiles already this month--both those new and longer-term journey friends. @MissMay gives awesome direction in her post above. While I can't remember when I joined, sharing my struggles and my reflections at how I ended up abusing has left me in a better place today. It helps to know…

  • Hi all, didn’t want the month to escape without checking on your progress and sharing mine. You may remember my post earlier this month on the 8th day of an AF streak. The next week, we headed back to Florida where health streaks traditionally end—except this time, it didn’t. Instead of falling off the wagon, I walked 3-5…

  • @klbaussie Just find your previous post on one of the pages of this thread. Highlight and copy the content your want and copy. Then go to the bottom of the page and paste in the reply box. Add your updates then post. I write down what page I posted on for the next week so it is easier to find.
  • @Writingwren Gosh those doc visits can be brutal and inspiring at the same time. Glad you have a hubs willing to keep you motivated. I do too. Trust yourself. Your goal is yours alone and should never be compared to anyone else's. Some will set goals higher, some will set lower--but all goals set are perfect for the one…

  • Just checking in on an 8 day AF streak. When last I participated I was headed to FL for some R&R where many activities center around the "drink." Once my AF streak failed there in June, I never really had a new AF streak as long as today's. Weird is that I'm in a mental state where I just don't even want alcohol. I blame…
  • First time on this challenge. Like the weekly weigh as opposed to daily. My real measure of initial success is a likely many months away: fitting into this new pair shorts that would have fit two years ago. Now, even fastening up to the third of four buttons creates an awful "spillage roll". It's the ugly truth that…
  • Joining late after a long time a-weigh. I have gained back a lot of my former progress. Bought a brand new pair of shorts I might have been able to wear to the races Saturday had I continued my original conviction and health plan past June. They are now my goal shorts. Took an "ugly truth" picture wearing them buttoned up…
