I would suggest to change your calorie goal to maintenance, and be okay with not losing weight while on vacation. Log as best you can, drink lots of water, do some strength training at night before bed, and just enjoy your rest. You know how to lose the weight now, so even if you gain a pound, you'll get right back to it…

Lightly active, but sync your Fitbit to MFP so it can adjust your calories for you if you burn more than MFP estimates.

Carbohydrates are counted in people with diabetes.. that does not mean they are "bad". It means our bodies need insulin to process them and if you are diabetic, you are either not making enough insulin, or you are insulin resistant. My son also has to pay attention to protein and cover some of that with insulin. Does that…

Soda "saved" my son's life one night when his blood sugar got into the 20s. It did not cause him to have diabetes. His immune system did that. Even though the pancreas gets all the blame. :wink:

Strength training is $10/ minute :smile:

Ice cream pop-tart sandwich is an old favorite.

hahahaha I kind of hate that I laughed so hard at this. *giggles*

I weigh myself daily, but only record it once a week. I just don't think ONE number should be the judge of an entire week's progress.

Welcome to MFP :smile:

Shorts and muscle or tee shirts. The length of your shorts is anything long enough that your friends can't pop out and say hello during a squat. Material is completely up to you. Probably cotton or performance wear. Fleece and corduroy I can't imagine would be very comfortable. Shoes are also up to you. I have a high arch,…

That's your own insecurities. If they don't say anything about you, it has nothing to do with you. If a friend complains about getting grey hair, I don't take offense just because I have a bunch. If a friend complains about feeling so tired because of their kid, I don't feel offended and demean them just because I'm doing…

Ideally, if you have your current stats and goal weight entered correctly, you should strive to be "in the zone". Your "zone" should be pretty close to MFP numbers though, if you have the same settings (ie. Fitbit food plan as Easy = MFP lose 0.5 pounds per week because both calculate a 250 calorie deficit). If yours is…

I do short increments at work to keep moving. Just a couple sets here and there is great. If you have no weights: desk or table pushups, regular pushups, lunges, jump squats, regular squats, chair dips, punching sets, knee lifts... If you have dumbbells: triceps kicks, weighted squats, bicep curls, weighted lunges,…
