  • Thank you MaggieGirl135 that is kind of you to offer a solution. I am more successful when i pre-log my food for the day that is for sure. Very nice of you thanks.
  • I have lost 18.2 pounds since Christmas and the weight is coming off at a good pace. By the time I go to my next annual physical in April I will have lost 45 pounds at this rate. I can't wait to see the doctors reaction to the loss. That will be very rewarding! By the time I have my total knee replacement surgery in…
  • Thank you scotty!! That is what I am hoping to do is bring the positive energy I feel and hopefully help support others as well in their weight loss journey! I just feel so much better now and I know it will continue. I do so appreciate the support I feel from all of you.
  • That is some amazing progress you have made! Good job!! One day at a time is the way to go. All I needed was the right information. I have the determination to make it happen and I have every intention of continuing. I will log my food for the rest of my life because it works and keeps me accountable. It is going very well.
  • Well that is very disappointing. Thank you for letting me know that this has been suggested many times previously. Such a bummer because it really would improve the logging experience.
  • I am wondering what your staff thought of the suggestion to add a small bright green check mark that can be clicked after eating the item to help keep a visual on the days intake. I would LOVE it if you had that feature and I am sure anyone that enters their intake in advance of eating it would benefit from it. Please let…
  • I have lost 16 pounds since Christmas.....It is working!!! YAY... :)

  • I can't figure out how to send you a friend request Tessy but I changed to a public profile if you want to send me one. Glad the idea for enhancing your water was helpful.
  • https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004RZA6XA?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1&th=1 I have been recommended this and they have orange flavor. I got the lime flavor and it takes just like someone squeezed a fresh lime in my water. It is awesome. The best part is there are NO artificial flavoring or artificial sweeteners,…
  • Heee heee... Thank you. How do I send you a friend request? If that is ok and you would like to support each other.
  • Thank you springlering62! I appreciate the help. Congratulations on your great success. I want to lose a total of 147 pounds and I am off to a good start.!!
  • Hello, my name is Amy and I am 60 years old. I have set a goal to lose 147 pounds total and then stay at my new weight and maintain it permanently. I believe I can do this with logging every single thing I take in on a daily basis. So far it is going very well since Christmas when I started. I am looking for a place I can…
  • I still don't know exactly how this works. I just saw your comment Tessysworld. Coffee and tea do not count towards the 128 ounces of water I drink daily. Coffee actually dehydrates you!! I like to have my coffee and then start first thing in the morning to drink ice water. I am not sure how to adjust my settings yet for…
  • I just realized that the idea would work for people logging it on the computer but not on the app.
  • Thank you very much Jean, it just seems that it would look nice on the logging page and be quite useful.
  • People do make snap judgements based on weight. It makes things really hard. People assume that you eat a ton of food, are lazy and don't do anything to try to become more healthy. They don't have a clue. In my case I take medications that I must take for the rest of my life with the side effect of weight gain. I finally…
  • Hello Ann, Thank you so much for your encouragement. That is so wonderful that you have maintained your weight for so long. I plan to use MFP permanently to lose and then maintain my weight loss. This diet is the only thing that works for me with medication I have to take. I used to be slender before for most of my life…
