Preface: I do not judge food choices. I do not eat "clean" all the time either. However, if you don't want people to judge your food choices then maybe you *should* lock your diary. I think the diary open/closed option is genius because some people DO feel the need to hold themselves accountable to healthier food choices.…

Food -> Recipes -> Enter New Recipe Food by food and service size. Bam. I have like dozens of recipes. You can even edit them if you don't use onion next time.

I have had 2 plateaus. Truth be told, I broke them by eating and then being patient. Started with a day of not tracking and eating some yummy foods, then upping my calories a couple hundred. I'm now eating 1700 cals plus most exercise calories. When I get closer to my goal weight I might lower again. It will depend on how…

Start @ 216. Took my first pics at 195. Currently 175. Working towards 155. 2/3 of the way there!! I'm burning those grey pants next. LOL

Eat more food. /thread

Usually people send the friend request to me. Most often I can't see their profiles until after I accept. That's when I notice: 1. They eat a low calorie diet that I do not support 2. They complain all the time 3. They are active for 3 days, then abandon for a month, rinse and repeat 4. They update their status 25 times a…

All sins should be punishable by death. Could you imagine if our legal system thought the same way? IBTL

* All drawers and closets have to be closed before I go to bed. Open all day, I don't care. * All my drawers and closets are a terrible mess. And I would describe myself as an organized person in all other areas of life. * I snap my gum. * I lick all of the flavouring off of Doritos before I eat them. * I dissect my…

Try eating. Your food diary says you are not eating nearly enough. 800 cals? A teenage girl eats that on a bad day. You are a grown man. Eat the calories MFP give you, at the very least.

I haven't had a first date in 12 years!! But yes, I used to kiss on the first date. I think that kissing is like a fingerprint. Everyone is different. No point in getting to know someone on a potentially romantic level if they kiss like a dead fish or like a hungry puppy. If our kiss is not compatible, then making out is…

You can change the setting to whatever suits you. If you are into strength training, you SHOULD change them to have higher protein for example. I have been told a good standard ratio is closer to 40 30 30. Good luck.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Michael Shanks. Too bad he's a bit of a douche IRL.

I was 30 when I had my daughter. I was 31 when I had my son. My hubby wants a 3rd, but I want to get back into shape first. I'm afraid that I don't really want a 3rd. But if I wait too long, I might not have as easy of a time getting pregnant again. So for the sake of my not-yet-conceived possible 3rd child, I wish I…

I...can't....chooooose!!! Dr. Who (all), Stargate (all), Battlestar Galactica (new). My Hubby would say Star Wars. I never really liked Star Trek. But I will enjoy the occasional episode my hubby throws on the TV. Long live the nerd.

My husband calls me Shay as a short form for Shannon. And back in the day we used to play Mario Party 5 on the Game Cube. You collect Stars to win the game. Sometimes you collect evil stars called "Ztar". Apparently Shaystar is popular on the interwebz, but no one calls themselves ShayZtar. BAM! My user name for…

Me and hubby are practically from Tamriel. LOL When we go for a walk in the forest (IRL), or if we see particular plants, we just say "Snick Snick" and it never fails to get a giggle out of us!!

Then we should keep replying so that it keeps bumping. Internet tricks FTW.

I totally feel the same way about the so-called cool kids!! If it wasn't for the cool kids being mean and sarcastic, I would still be plateaued at 10 lbs loss on a 1200 calorie diet injuring my knees forcing myself to jog. I wouldn't know anything about BMR, TDEE, HRMs, "starvation mode", and "clean eating". Much love you…

Walking for exercise rocks. I use a HRM to track now tho. But before I had one, I would put on my iPod and walk to the beat of dance/pop music. When I tracked the same walks on rainy days on my treadmill, I was usually walking 2.5 to 3.0 according to the MFP database. Sometimes, a real fast song might take me to 3.5, but I…

Yep. And even if you did consume a tub of butter covered in a tub of lard...... Today is a new day. Get outside, get thee some exercise. Start again. 2 lbs in nothing in the grand scheme of things. p.s. Wait until you *poop* out last night's food. You might find yourself 2 lbs lighter.

HIGH FIVE I know the kids don't do that these days, but FIST BUMP doesn't have the same right to it. Thanks for this. So many people say so many of these strange quips. It's easy to get caught up in it, especially if a person is desperate. Fads, fads, fads.

Looking great!! Congrats!

One can only wish! LOL

And then a friend suggested that MFP ratios were set low. Changed them and BAM. I'm not over on fat. I guess MFP is pretty conservative. 40% 30% 30% So now days that are lazier show above fat, and days that are cleaner show lower fat. I love the support on MFP. You all rock.
-
I always thought the two were linked as well. High fat low calorie options? LOL But I see I'm often over on fat, even when I'm eating well. Like, two eggs with breakfast. Bam, 10 grams of fat. Serious? Not gonna switch to egg white, because all of the nutrients are in the yolk. So is the fat. That's what's getting me…
