Machines and MFP all give horrible calorie burn estimates - they are usually state way higher burns. A HRM is the best way to get more accurate results, but if you are using MFP or the machine, I'd half whatever they are telling you to be on the safe side and make sure you are not eating back too many calories

Ottawa area here :)

Exercise and fitness are a great way to work through stress & to help better yourself. I've worked with a personal trainer previously, but I found the most success working solo...when it was me searching out new info, pushing myself, learning new things & just giving it a good try and hard work. Personal training can also…

Looking for active friends, preferably with open diaries. I prefer quality over quantity when it comes to friends. I am vegetarian, trying to get into running ( I love it - just so out of shape). I also need to make more time for strength training to help me in reaching my goals. I need to lose about 50lbs, but my main…

Ottawa, Ontario. Feel free to add :)

Trying to live a balanced healthy life style, focusing on the long term

I love Greatist and Popsugar fitness

Always love having active positive pals on here, I find it makes such a difference. Feel free to add me

I'm boring, I like it simple and usually just add almond milk and a small amount of maple syrup. Sometimes for a treat I will cut up some of a chocolate protein bar and add chopped walnuts

It would be minimal I imagine. I'm sure it's healthy, but in terms of calories or carbs etc it would be so minimal that if you're asking from a logging perspective, that I wouldn't bother trying to log it.

Nice to see so many fellow Canadians. I am in the Ottawa area and have also been struggling with this heat. I may have to give the 5am run times a try

Movie theatre popcorn. Soooooooo good

I'm sure there's plenty of creepy women on here too, I just haven't experienced it. I've yet to be hit on by a female mfp'er

Very entertaining thread, hilarious. To respond to the actual post for a minute, I think it's totally cool to flirt or whatever if it's between 2 consenting adults with respect ... No judgement, have fun. But there's dudes on here that will send creepy messages, aggressive messages, and multiple messages when there's been…

I loved the subject line and totally agree. I was simultaneously thrilled to see it was posted by someone I am pals with while also sad that I don't have the chance to add another MFPer with a good outlook on this, haha. Keep at it :)

I know what you mean. Our love of leisure wear and yoga pants means we don't notice when we start to gain weight...so dangerous lol. Feel free to add me, also on instagram under same ID crazydogladyjess

Sooooo annoying. If you've tried politely and she clearly isn't getting it - I would give her some attitude back. It sucks you're in such a situation

Canadian RN, just getting started on BBG and really loving the workouts so far! Would love other BBG pals

Ottawa here - thrilled that the snow is finally starting to melt! Bring on the sunshine and warm weather :)

Thanks everyone! Wish me luck...

Agree - great tips. I think I'm going to make a sort of cheat sheet for my fridge, to remind myself to stop and think before I eat.

I know, right?! That's what I thought.

Maybe it is an issue with your camera. See if your phone has all the updates, also make sure the camera lense is clean as the barcode scanner is super sensitive.

I'd focus on moisturising before bed, rubbing some vitamin E cream under the eyes would be of benefit. Also if you are driving a lot, make sure you wear sunglasses. I used to drive a lot for work and I'd constantly be squinting my eyes when driving, and wouldn't realize it until after I had been doing it for awhile. Also,…

I log daily, feel free to add me.

Feel free to add me, motivated friends make all the difference on mfp!

Hey all! Feel free to add me

Feel free to add me too. Im active on MFP and have an open diary. Would love more pals for motivation and support.

Geek guy (but I think geeks rock, fyi...)
