man I love that too. love is not an emotions?

oops. did not give complete quote. 99% of dieters say that they break their diet because they are depressed, stressed or bored. Feelings, not lack of willpower, get in the way of successful dieting.

The results for week 4 are in. All teams total have lost 1402.2 pounds! With 286 active participants that in an average of 4.99 pounds per person lost! Nice going everyone and give yourselves a collectibe pat on the back! We still have a bit less than 8 weeks to go. Keep up the good work teammates!

MFP will be adding USDA official calories for 1000's of foods soon I heard from an MFP staffer recently . very happy to hear that. lots of wrong stuff here.

and that would be the point of the recommendations. promoting lifestyle change. a list of ideas.

this is great, and probably the best you can get unless MFP does something more formal.

most tools come with instructions.

agreed that MFP is an awesome tool. LIke all good tools improvements can be made.

not calling for a plan. I agree this site is wonderful because it does not offer a plan. Most people failed on all those plans. This aspect of the site should not be taken away either. again, this would have to be presented just right. I think a smart team of people from MFP and key MFP member could pull something like…

yeah, its a step in the right direction.

yes, something like this might work. BUT not created by a member. MFP staff should create this with input from some key MFP members.

okay. 90% of you think it is a bad idea overall. which means something like this would have to be done very carefully considering the current MFP culture. but I maintain it still could be done. just sayin. :)

I can see validity in your points. I hope you could see that set up correctly my idea could also be done and actually address a lot of your concerns.

was it common sense to you before you lost all your weight? I doubt it. open your mind to a possible solution before outright rejecting an idea. :)

that is one possible solution I guess. anyway, it should not be over the top and interfere with the existing MFP culture. might be hard to pull off though.

not promoting a plan. call it a list of helpful tips that SHOULD be customized to your own needs explaining that some might make sense for you. some might not.

it doesn't have to be like how you describe above. it does not have to be an authoratative list. but a list of things that most people found helpful would be beneficial.

it does not have to be presented as gospel. it could be presented in the "sprit" of MFP. grownups do have to learn about how to eat right and research it. why not have that research right here on MFP without having to sort through the crap and the "cabbage" diet?

those X calories can shorten your life in the long run. yes, in the short run you will lose. why "learn" what those foods are when some general guidelines could be given in this area. whole wheat bread. most fruits. most veggies. cut the red meat. most dieticians and diets agree on many points.

I have head similar things before. information about something like that might be useful to share in general. another one they could do is right next to the water, record the number of hours you slept last night. not enough sleep usually mean eating too much the next day.

and this would not be taken away. BUT one cool thing they could do with that if you are on a particular plan you could click on that and it would automatically set the macros to that plan IF you want to do that.

so what if they complain. people complain no matter what. does not make it the right or wrong thing to do.
