This is brain training. I am terrible at math (I'm a good with my hands not my head type of engineer) but doing formula helps me understand it more. Training the mind in later yrs (42 approaches fast. I'm my head that's getting old) is just as important as the body. (this is my mantra every time I spend an extra half hour…

For me it is, very much so, it keeps me interested, the more I learn the more I understand so I am less likely to fall off the wagon, or if I do at least I have the knowledge of what I am doing to myself etc. I understand where peoples worries comes from on here, there are many people that unfortunately have anxiety issues…

This with anything, and after 5 of these who cares how many more you intake....at that point its party time.... Personally, I only count alcohol that I drink when at home, so a couple of beers, glass or 2 wine ( I share a bottle with the wife over a meal) or the weekend cocktails......if I am going on a night out then they…

Love this part, I can imagine a Monty python sketch or Marx brothers, having a mass brawl over eating eggs, throwing protein powder in his face and cracking eggs over his head (please tell us all you did this to him) - Yes, you have an idiot for a friend (if he cannot support you when you trying to make the change then you…

I have been looking at them, but not with my job, I work in a chocolate factory, it has strick regulations about what you can wear, so a watch is a no no. so would have to hide it, if i get caught I could get in serious troulbe, so for now I will just look...lol, but I am interested to know what my daily activity is like,…

just in case anyone is wondering, as I see POOP has been mentioned a couple of times in this thread, just in case anyone is thinking that the brown squares in my spreadsheet are my poop weights then you are very wrong indeed......sick people.... I work in a chocolte factory, so I have started to log how many sweets I eat…
-
My view on this for me is motivation, I know I need to eat healthy, I know I need to excercise etc, but left to my own devices I cant be arsed, so last time I used MFP I found logging really helped, but I was not as rigerous then, Did not weigh, used generals or guesses, but then I wanted to lose alot, over a long time, to…

Someone needs to tell me to ditch the spreadsheet and get on the treadmill instead....lol Far too obsessed with tracking and hitting goals, when I could be exercising.....lol

If there are others ways I am interested to know too, fairly new myself to this....

the only way I know you can change it is on the blue bar above where you type it says news feed, at the other end it says view, change that to summary, instead of all updates, it then just shows your friends posts, but that's... Hope that helps a bit

I have been at this for 5 weeks now, eating an average 200 deficit to what MFP tells me I need to lose 2lbs a week, I should be 10+ lbs down by now but only showing 4 or 5 on the scale, but I do notice my moobs have shrunk and my stomach is less bloated, so lets just stick at it and hopefully you will notice a difference…

Hello all, also from UK, Yorkshire, I am 41, Male with 2.5 st minimum to lose, I work nights in a chocolate factory so I need all the help I can get (could be worse, could be a beer factory) Feel free to add me, but I don't give out free samples ;)

I too work nights for last 7 years, I find working nights has helped me to lose weight as I eat much less during the week. My week is Mon - Thu 9pm - 6am My week is usually, Mon morning I eat Breakfast / Early Lunch, then I try sleep for a bit, then up at 7pm for work, eat a small meal / snack / cereal. Then I eat a meal…

Interesting read from everyone, I too am eating at a deficit, averaging 1700 a day when my goal is 1860, and I too am only seeing small losses, 2lb so far in 5 weeks, I should be 10+ down now according to MFP, but he ho you soldier on, what I am doing is slowly changing my eating habits, I too eat crap most of the time,…

I too am English, I could rather stop drinking beer than tea !!! lol. I too drink around 2 - 4 large (pint pots) of tea a day, I also work for a large coffee manufacturer so I can get cheap good quality coffee, so I drink 2 or 3 of them a day also, as well as 2 - 4 pints of water a day. I log them too as I realise I do…

Hello Miss Disheartened... I am too starting out, been at it for 4 weeks now and I am showing very slow progress, I have gone from 18 stone to 17 stone 12 so only 2 lbs so far, I have been eating much better (could still improve a lot though, but trying) trying to cut out the soda and sugary drink, adding veg and fruit…

Many thanks for your reply....this is my second time using MFP now, I started on here about 3 yrs ago and I did lose 4 st then, so I am now back trying to lose some more another 2 or 3 would be nice, I am taking to much more seriously this time too, I am logging everything this time properly so I am getting a better view…

As I say I am happy with my goals and I find them easy to achieve, but 1890 seems a lot for a women only 8 stone 4, my activity is set at light active, hers at active, so I can understand a bit of a difference there, I suppose the 500 a day saving for me to lose weight is what should be the difference but I don't think she…
