https://www.fitbit.com/user/25FD8T Loving my Surge, everything about it really.

You sound like me when I first started using fitbit 2 years ago. As in most things keeping it simple helps. Work out your calories for the day in MFP and don't try to figure out fitbit adjustments. In my case I have set my food intake to 1700 calories in MFP. Fitbit says I've earned an extra 760 from exercise, giving me a…

Add my yeah to that.

The day I stopped smoking was one of the most thrilling days of my life. There had been several earlier attempts always ending in failure. Then I read Allen Carr's book and followed his method to the letter. It's such a great book. I smoked until I had finished reading it. Coincidentally I ran out of cigarettes at the same…

Hi Lauren, I stopped smoking a little over six months ago AND have managed not to put on any weight. In fact since quitting I have lost a further 10 pounds or so. This morning however I realized that I might not be able to keep the weight off indefinitely - for me it has involved walking up to three hours daily and taking…

One thing we have to accept is that no one method that's readily available is one hundred percent accurate. But consistently following one method over time can produce a useful data set. I have weighed myself every day on a Withings wifi scale since mid January and recorded weight and BF numbers. At the start BF was 19.3%…

Feeling the bounce come back into my step when I walk. Increased agility.

Number one for me has got to be better recovery times after exercise. Twelve months ago if I walked an hour I would need a week to ease the soreness out of my body. These days I aim to walk 2 hours a day, three when my schedule allows me time and opportunity. Work days I walk to my job and take the long way in, drawiing…

Hi. I found myself in a very similar positipn to you, having more or less completed my initial goal but wanting to push on further. My weight stalled 2 pounds from my new target, where it sits to this day. There is more to this however. You might need to look very carefully at the details of your situation. Weight is…

Keep it up. Things get better, and better. I quit cold turkey 16 weeks ago and have no regrets. For years before I finally stopped I had this growing sense of rage about cigarettes and my apparent inability to stop smoking. Stopping is the best thing I ever did for myself. Cherish the fact that you have stopped smoking,…

Hi Dee, you've most likely worked it out by now that kcals and cals are the same... so, no need to convert.

Hi I joined MFP in december with about 20 pounds to lose. At the back of my mind was the idea that IF I could just get my weight under control stopping smoking would be a doddle... And, surprise , surprise, it was! But then after the initial euphoria wore off the munchies came to visit and pounds started returning. It's…

Not crazy at all. The two things are very closely related. As a matter of fact I joined MFP to do the exact same thing but I held off responding to your post until AFTER I had reached and passed my stopping day. That arrived yesterday. Stopping was a breeze. In fact it was flippin' GREAT!! Today is Day 2 of my life as a…
