Much to ponder! I have to stay far away from 'deprivation' thinking, I cannot set aggressive goals or I will work against myself. I feel like I'm a split personality at times, one voice is mockingly rational about the excess calories I have obviously consumed, and wants me to get on with it - the other jealously guards…

Yeah, I don't get it - if I use the UPC code scanner from first page of app, then it asks me to chose a meal. I think it may stay on that same meal if I then scan something else. Ditto with recipes. But my most common way to log, whether preplanning, day of, or going back to edit something in, is to use diary>meal>add food…

@ridiculous59, cannot stop imagining you prettily running away from a bear down some trail now 😆 🤣

Congrats on fully retiring @KeriA! And the new computer 🙂, sounds like you have a good grasp of what you want to accomplish next, much success to you as you implement and refine your plan.

HAPPY CANADA DAY! 🇨🇦 Hey all, I am here and also miss the Newsfeed, but not enough to switch apparently, or at least not yet! I did pay for premium membership early in the year, so will let it ride for now. Plus I have many recipes and meals I've created, and don't have the heart to start over with them lol. Had a family…

Bye Karl 😟

Hear, hear 👏

Per you "I'm annoyed. It seems my old no tracking methods of eating much less than I normally do was more effective and easier than having to think about what I can have all the time" Go back to your old method then. No one decides on your macros but you. Low carb is NOT the only way to lose weight. "Also, how the hell do…

It may just be a temporary hiccup, you don't say how long it has been stopped. Be patient. If it has been a month or so, then sadly I think it means you must reduce calories further. You could try eating at maintenance level for a few days, and then drop back down to 1800 to see if that kickstarts anything.

I realize too late for the OP, but this is a really good idea, to make a Veggie omelette, probably 2-300 calories and could be quite filling. OP had 50 cal left to eat, so eating 200 cal over target would just use up some deficit. Going for a 30 min walk, while providing some extra calories to then eat potentially, could…

Can new software not be implemented to create a wall or ticker or whatever name you want to give a new Newsfeed?? Fine if it was becoming obsolete and difficult to maintain, we get that, but replace it please with something functionally similar.

I'm confused - who bought the house?? Laurie, are you moving to NFLD?

I did not realize you had to book the ferry to NFLD in advance, but I guess, especially with a trailer, it makes sense, and time of year too I suppose. But that is a firm deadline then 🤔

Safe travels Laurie on the road - my goodness that trailer is full! Looks like someone is aces at Tetris 😁

I must say, that ice cream cone looks mighty good 😂

MAN COLDS are pretty fierce from all accounts; as a woman, I wouldn't really know...😇 Get well soon Pav!

Yup, and this makes it pretty useless for journalling - which I would like private, or 'friends only', like the personal blogs were, but I don't want my entire profile private.

They previously took away the personal blogs we each had too. Quite a while ago, but was good to have somewhere to journal.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions! When I looked up one of them, an article comparing calorie counter apps came up, so thought I would share: https://appetiser.com.au/blog/best-calorie-counter-app/

@rachelshepherdofsydney, I hope to start very, very soon too! My prescription was supposed to be filled (finally!) mid-June, so checking with Pharmacy on Monday 🤞

My goodness @ridiculous59, I sure hope an occasion comes up sooner than later, and you not just let us know, but post a pic for us!! What a find 🤩 🌟

What app is this please?

Here, here! Yes please - particularly interested in ones that integrate well with your Fitbit!

Bump

Make homemade vegetable soups, they are filling and low calorie, and add it to dinner or lunch (or both) or eat as a snack. Usually works out to about 80 calories a cup. Ditto with salad, eat a salad everyday as part of a meal or as an extra, but be very careful about the salad dressing. Depending on what you put in (I…

Yes, most of my regular stash are stocking myself with 'goodies' that I can convince myself are goodies, but are in fact decent choices still, albeit they are often packaged processed foods. My calorie allotment is primarily consumed with meals made with unprocessed ingredients, so the snacks just don't fit, but they're…

Can you believe it? My orchid bloomed for me! Never has this happen before 🤗

I am sad to report my Newsfeed is gone today - was there very early this morning, but is no more. Sigh. I don't want to start somewhere else without my years of data, but I am considering it. And I am a premium member.

Hmmm, if I were to inventory all the treatish, snackish foods lurking in my cupboards - I think it would also be a formidable list. All "betterish" versions, like clif bars (vs chocolate bars), light chocolate pudding, some Atkins dessert bars, fruit bars, trail mix with roasted edamame, grainy crackers, Pep'n cheddies…

@ridiculous59, my goodness - eight sounds like some kind of a record - must be the time for sightings, but all from the car is amazing (and safer). 🙂
