  • I am 5'8" and I am happiest at 70 kg. I feel and look my best there.
  • What I find I do consistently now is eat a more varied and balanced diet. I now eat breakfast every day as before I was a huge meal skipper. Although I know many who people do very well with intermittent fasting, FOR ME, small eating windows led to uncontrollable binges. In the morning I now make sure to have a protein…
  • Ended a bad relationship and moved very far away from home, that's tough. I'd hazard a guess that you have lost much of your support network. Please take the time to take care of your mental health as well as your physical wellbeing . Talking to someone to help with processing all this would go a long way, see if you can…
  • Yes, I do it all the time because I calculate my calories on a weekly basis instead of a daily one. For example, let's say your goal is 2000 calories a day (for easy math) then your weekly goal is 14000 calories. If you eat 1800 every day it leaves you with 1400 extra calories to perhaps have some drinks or dessert at the…
  • This seems to be an ongoing issue. Mine works for a day or two then stops connecting completely. It is working at the moment. I usually disconnected MFP then reconnected and it would work for a day. This last time, I disconnected MFP and I also disconnected Fitbit at the same time waited a few minutes then reconnected…
  • Well, mine is linked to MFP directly through my Fitbit account. I love the sleep tracking features, it comes with Google pay and the Starbucks app. It has a wallet same as the Apple watch. One thing I like a lot over the Apple watch is that it stays charged for at least seven days! I get all my phone notifications as well…
  • I would really keep that appointment. Most ppi's like Prilosec take a while to kick in as they need to build up in your system. So it's no surprise you feel better now. You still need to find the underlying cause. If it is gastritis, for example, you need to be put on a prescription strength ppi for a two month period to…
  • I cycle as well and only change my activity to active once I work up to cycling over 3 hours a day at least 5 days a week. Otherwise, I keep it at sedentary and add in the exercise. At that point, a large part of my day involves cycling and if I just add in calories, I find it's too high. So I set my calories higher but I…
  • Although I really like going to the gym, I caught community acquired pneumonia twice there. Once from a spin class and once during a yoga class. Flu season is brutal around here too and so many users seem to have no problem coming in and touching everything even when they are practically on deaths door, lol. Working out at…
  • First things first, enter your stats in Myfitnesspal and it will calculate your calories for you. Set a reasonable goal and eat within your allotted calories. There is no reason to eliminate ANY food group if you keep within your calories. Set your activity level and any extra exercise will give you more calories for the…
  • I weigh daily and it gets shared here and on Trendweight. I have almost seven years of data which really keeps things in perspective. Recently I lost my MFP account (still don't know what happened), so everything over those years is gone, including my huge recipe cache. But because of my daily weigh in habit I still have…
  • Funny... This happened to me today too, why oh why does it suddenly think I'm cycling in the middle of winter lol
