  • If your not using digifit for the HRM, just read the how to on fitbit for HRM. It has good instructions if you want to use the HRM for workouts. Basicly. 1. Set the fitbit to stopwatch mode when your start your HRM workout. Stop stopwatch mode when done. 2. Record your HRM workout in MFP (record in MFP, not on fitbit).…
  • As for your other question, yes you will get an entry that updates during the day "Fitbit Adjustment" that will add calaries to MFP based your calaries burned on fitbit. If your set to sedintary on both MFP and Fitbit (recommend), then you will start to get calaries once you go past the seditary baseline. Don't worry about…
  • If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.
  • Love the fitbit, I think you will too. I do use digifit and and HRM sometimes to monitor workouts. Since they also link to fitbit, which links to MFP, the whole thing works pretty seemlessly. Even though it's not what they recommend, I take of my fitbit, only when i'm recording a HRM workout on digifit, this seems to work…
  • No do not send the gift or card. Sounds like you may have some mixed feelings. You wanted to end this friendship but you still purchased a gift. I know what your feeling and have been there. You need to examine your own feeling, and detemine if this is a relationship you do not want to have anymore. It sounds like you have…
  • i'm male 5'8 average build. Starting weight: 184 Current weight" 159 Target Weight: 151 I used a number of different calculator to try to determine a good target weight for me when I started. The number that I came up with using different methods is 151, so that is it. I'll have to see what I look like at 151. I have no…
  • I figure, if the food is important enough to me to put in my cakehole, then it's important enough to record. But that's just me
  • money and maybe a cough? When I'm trolling the old folks home that is.
  • Keep the picture you like. Toss out the other one. Congrats on being well on your way to a much healther you. It's always something, I swear the day I hit my goal weight, I'll most likely get a big pimple on my face. Focus on what you have done, how much better you must feel now and keep going.
  • As I'm sure many of you find, I find it almost impossible not to peek. So I changed the way I weigh in to go with the flow. I get on the scale most mornings when I get out of the shower. I have a wi-fi scale that records the weight. There is a free site, trendweight, that records the 'Data' (can sync to fitbit site if you…
  • Good Question. I have one along the same line. I have found as I have balanced out my sugar that I really just am not all that hungry. I am excercising alot. I am finding that by evening I can be way shy on my cararie intake. Hard to believe i'm actually asking this, heh. Does anyone have any idea on a quick, healthy…
  • No parents to help you make better choices and have portion control and all you don't even have to cook. Many Freshman eat in a dining room. All you can eat buffet Breakfast Lunch and Dinner most days. Ah, those were the days . . . but I regress. Add in some parties, Food and Beverges. and poof.
  • At MAX once a week. Two weeks better, but I can't do this, I kept finding I had to take a peek. If you have a scale that uploads like wireless like aria like I do, then you might be able to weigh in a bit different. I use a free site TrendWeight. I get on the scale every morning, but you might not even want to look (heh),…
  • Agree Kettlebells good. But must know how to use correctly so as not to hurt yourself. Class or a couple times with a trainer highly recommented.
  • Calculating your BMR is not easy or exact by any means. Check the stats you put into MFP. Age, weight, planned calarie defict and most important 'daily activity". Daily Activity can be a huge one. If your my mother (age 74) who never sits, you may be burning many 100's of calaries a day that a person who never moves does…
  • Hello cart, I can relate. I've been bouncing around for a long time as well. I'm also a gamer and a professional geek. I started here on MFP only about a month ago. I'm also looking for motivation to keep it going, and get over the bumps that make it easy to just not do it today and again then . . . . I'm not looking to…
  • I'm using it and really like it. The automatic intergration with MFP is great. It may not be prefection, but it does keep my butt moving and motivated to keep moving, not only with traditional excersice but just to keep moving during the day. If you have any questions, let me know or friend me.
  • Yes, I eat out, much of the time, in fact. Yes, I can guesstimate when I had the 'Pork tenderloin with a side of fluffy mashed potatos', and at a cocktail party I might try to stick to the shrimp rather than then puff pastries. But as i'm learning to track what I eat, I'm starting to think of a nice Pot Luck as a…
  • Don't worry about it. You should really only be concerned with your weight over longer periods of time. At week at min. This happens to me all the time. My daily weight change is about 2lb. I'm usually 1-2lb lighter in the morning then if I get on the scale in the evening. Also, if I have a 'Bad" day, mine are way worse…
