I think using terms "nutritionally dense" and "nutritionally sparse" conveys a better idea of what is more mindful to eat or not eat, since it's more objective.

Usually if you want to lose but your adjusted intake is too low mfp will just put you at 1200. However that also means you won't be losing at the pace you originally wanted. For your health, it's probably better to stick with a higher intake and lose slower.

yes please, feel free to add me as well! let's motivate each other!!

the pun is brilliant.

great nsv, happy friday!! :)

i always look forward to the holiday hess commercials. this year it's the helicopter and rescue vehicle, oh yeah. it totally counts as a christmas song.

i'm making a point to do wk1 day 2 today, howdy partner :)

1. I want a job (a proper, full time one with benefits) that I enjoy 2. eggnog and pumpkin flavored ice cream-- my stomach still rules me after all! 3. I want my friends to have jobs (proper, full time ones with benefits) that they enjoy if santa can give me 1 and 3, i think i can do without 2 :)

hey everyone! just joined as well. i got down to 163 a few months back, but i've gained back all of the lost weight, and then some. so i'm hoping that from now, and into the new year, that i'll try to keep my eating in order, and that i'll get myself more fit, and that my weight will eventually move down.

i'm restarting on week 1, hoping to do day 2 tmrw (or today i guess, since it's after midnight)

you look great! and your kids are ridiculously cute.

thank you so much, yay!

hahaha!! someone came up with a story for this one once-- an old lady washed her cat and popped it in the microwave because she thought it would get the cat nice and warm and toasty. when that didn't turn out the be the case, she sued the company saying that there wasn't a warning label saying cats couldn't be put in them.

looks great, thanks!

bump-- i'm a sucker for anything pumpkin :)

i never knew there was a way to get a serving's worth of cookies down to 90 calories, thanks!

i have a strong desire to inhale everything i've been seeing in this thread. this includes the twinkies. delicious.

i love crab rangoon so much, thanks for the recipe! i can pop more of them in my mouth now with gusto.

just steam them. they're so delicious steamed.

ohh, what sorts of herbs and spices do you usually have on hand? is there a particular combo you like for certain veggies? as for me, i eat everything sauteed.

i did the fitness test 2 days ago and haven't done the next part yet. i'm going to do day 2 tonight, and i'd love to join you with the motivation!

if there are any new yorkers out there, please, jiggy with me!

hi, i'm eff. i'm 22, and i've never been at a healthy weight, even as a child. my goal is to lose a little under 40 lb. i've been on mfp since summer of last year, but i keep slipping up because i have really bad binging tendencies. i don't want to use food as fuel. i want to enjoy it, as it's intended, without going about…

woohoo, way to go!

i love your writing! totally inspirational, and congrats on your awesomeness :).
