By the way, I have a question I asked on the appropriate forum but no one answered it; maybe someone here is up to date with nutrition facts and figures? I ate a pile of broccoli the other day and when I entered it into mfp, I got a notice that it was high in protein. I had no idea. So, my question is, is the protein we…

Those beignets looks amazing, I bet they were delish. I had a huge lunch and only have @250 calories left for dinner, whoops! Hello, green tea.

Hey - I’m not a vegetarian or vegan, but I noticed when I put broccoli into MFP it counted as protein. Is the protein in dark green veggies “as good as” the protein I get from chicken and etc?

I’ve never heard of protein fluff before either!

Please feel free to add me! I’m “new in town,” and don’t have much experience using this app, but I’m hoping that being held accountable will finally stop my lifelong yo yo dieting pattern.

You're in the right place! There's no such thing as too much support. :) What have you been doing today?

Hey -- I'm new, can I ask, please, how you get photos/screenshots onto the message boards here? All I see is the text bar...just curious. The pics are so nice.

It's not magic; it's just CICO, in a way that works very well for people (like me, I do IF) who otherwise would be snacking more throughout the day and evening. By saying to myself -- I do 16:8 which is basically just a fancy way of saying I skip breakfast -- that it's after 8pm, so I "am not allowed" to eat anymore, even…

Hi! This is my second week on MFP, so far so good, I suppose. I mean, I'd rather be eating whole bags of Doritos and watching Netflix, but I'd rather live a long healthy life than catch up on the latest season of Stranger Things, right?

Great job!!

I admire all you people who can drink your coffee black; it gives me a stomach ache when I do. I use unsweetened almond milk and it took a while to get used to the lack of sweetness, but now when I do put a little splash of sweetness in my coffee, it tastes like a treat, instead of just.....morning.

I tried Halo Top twice, one was birthday cake flavor and I think the other was mint chocolate chip. They were revolting! I couldn't believe all the online raves, it was like Halo Top hired spammers and paid them per mention or something. Better to just have a little regular light ice cream and enjoy it.

Uma, you are inspiring, and you look wonderful. I hope that your mood is feeling as good as you look.

All I know is, the treadmill I use is probably set for a 180-200 lb man, and I'm a 125-129 pound (middle aged) woman. It tells me that I have burned like 300 calories in half an hour, never breaking into a jog, and I knew that was absurd. But the other sources tell me it's actually closer to 90 calories - wahh, not even a…

Thank you very much, autumnblade75! I'll check that out right now.

Hi, I’m new too! I don’t think you’re stuck, because a doctor told me that losing half a pound a week is the healthiest route to actual permanent long-term (etc) weight loss to maintenance. It’s the rate with the least “backslides.” 😁😁
