  • quote] MFP automatically subtracts 500 calories from your daily caloric needs based on your lifestyle and BMR. When you exercise, you increase your caloric output. For instance: My BMR is 1400. My lifestyle (slightly active) expends an extra 300 calories. That's 1700 calories a day that I burn WITHOUT exercise. MFP…
  • Love mini candy bars- Twix, snickers:smooched: My all time favorite food though is chicken fingers with hot sauce and blue cheese dressing! I have to stay away from that though:cry:
  • I did the same thing! I actually took a nap today instead of jumping on the treadmill! I still have time though. You could do some exercise at home. Even if it is just sit ups:wink: You might feel better doing something!:happy:
  • Should I worry more about my sugar intake or sodium intake for weight loss? I was keeping track of sodium and doing ok unless I ate bad things, but switched my counter to sugar and noticed I was quite a bit over my daily goal! Won't I lose more with less sugar? I don't have high blood pressure and don't add salt to…
  • I think it just may be looking at your calories. You add calories to your food when you exercise and maybe it doesn't subtract that when you finish for the day. I noticed the same thing.
  • Congratulations!! Keep up the good work!!:bigsmile:
  • Great info!! I have done the real age survey and didn't like what I saw. I am now trying to take care of "me" so I will be here to take care of my kids and grandkids (not close to ready for that but do want to be around:wink: ). Thanks for sharing!!:happy:
  • I think I get it now. Thank you songbyrdsweet!! You always have great advice and knowledge! You are much appreciated!!:flowerforyou:
  • So you are saying that I should eat the extra 200 calories I gained from exercise? Will I still lose? Or does my body need them because of the exercise? I'm a bit confused!:ohwell:
  • You go girl!!:bigsmile:
  • My question is do you continue eating up to the calories you gain from exercise? Say I eat 1280 calories, then exercise and have 200 extra calories. Do I have to eat those extra 200 calories?? Or should I?
  • Welcome and good luck!!:flowerforyou:
  • I know how you feel. I have been at it for 3 weeks and have lost 6 lbs. but hoped for more. Are you drinking water? I find that helps me! Maybe you are gaining muscle and will shortly see the weight loss. Remember, the weight didn't get there in 2 weeks. It will take time. Don't give up!! Some days are more frustrating…
  • There is no doubt in my mind that you will do it!!! Keep up the good work!:happy:
  • I'm hoping to have an obsession like that! I am still fighting against some of the unhealthier choices. I am a lot more self- conscious about what I eat now though. I hope to get to that point of not even wanting to eat the "cheat" foods. Keep obsessing! I bet you are having success!!!:drinker:
  • I wonder if Mike is overloaded with the inputs ,and it may take a while for them to be available for everyone because they want to check them out and make sure they are legit? I have had the same issue with friends trying to find things I have put in, and I have done this through many other computers, so I don't believe it…

  • Thanks for sharing that! It is a way way of thinking and hits home with me. I am a teacher and as soon as school is over, I want something to eat! Unfortunately that snack machine looks good and there is always a jar of chocolate in the office. Sounds great at the time!! Have to have it!!! :ohwell: It is my tough time of…
