I used to always go quite a bit over on sodium. I found that if I eat food prepared at home (not really from scratch, but just not pre-prepared frozen foods), I'm usually quite a bit under now. Not to mention that eating out less saves a ton of money!

My advice would be to not overthink it. Be sure to log anything you eat and also log your activity. If you are supposed to eat 1200 calories and burn 300, try to eat around 1500 that day. It is okay when it says you are "under your calorie goal". Just try to be close to it. My feeling is that 200 under to 200 over your…

You will literally run your *kitten* off if you keep running. Truly. And it will happen faster, the faster you run! Good luck :)

Bump!

I don't know how to "quote" on here, apparently. Anyway, I DID follow the troubleshooting steps (to no avail) and then emailed them. Sent email about a week ago, and no response whatsoever.

I like mine, but the mf-er will not sync for the life of me!! Any suggestions?

My advice would be to lift heavily (as much weight as you can put up) and eat back at least some of your exercise calories.

LIFT. The heaviest weights you can. Works wonders, particularly for women.

This might sound counterintuitive to you, but I'd up your cals with a protein shake. There is absolutely nothing wrong with consuming extra protein. Plus, I believe MFP protein count is set pretty low. Good luck!

I have a Kindle Fire - it's $200. Good for me. Good for apps and internet browsing. The screen is only 7 inches, but some of the bigger ones I think are cumbersome.

Yes, it's mph.

Yeah, of course! Unfortunately, when they fit (a pair of capris), they just didn't look that cool anymore:) On a sort of opposite note, I've heard that you should get rid of the too big clothing as a kind of incentive to not go back!

What a difference a year makes! You look so young!!!!

Week 2 (12/03/11) xxx lbs Week 3 (12/10/11) xxx lbs Week 4 (12/17/11) xxx lbs goal = 138 Week 5 (12/24/11) xxx lbs Week 6 (12/31/11) xxx lbs Week 7 (1/7/12) xxx lbs Week 8 (1/14/12) xxx lbs goal = 135 Week 9 (1/21/12) xxx lbs Week 10 (1/28/12) xxx lbs Week 11…

Personally, I'd try to guess the amount of downtime (on the sidelines, just shooting freethrows, etc) and subtract that from your minutes. I'd log maybe 90-100 minutes instead of the full 120. Just a suggestion!

I eat a PB&J almost every day.

That whole weekend I will be at the bf's family home. I don't think I'll track but I will definitely try to make good decisions, especially since there won't be any good opportunities to work out :( But this is real life, eh? Gotta adjust?

Thanks for the link! Just joined :)

Hey!!! Just joined this group because I just posted the exact same thing. I hope you guys accept me; in truth I'm between 5'8.5" and 5'9", My goal is 135. I got there last year (for like one day) and then I fell off the wagon. CW is about 143. Yay for tall chicks!!!

I can only answer one of your questions. I use CoreActive whey protein (in chocolate) and it tastes great!

That sounds like me for the past few months....which is why I'm back on here! Don't beat yourself up over it, if we didn't indulge sometimes we would be miserable!

My goal is to get back on track! I got to my happy weight last Spring using MFP. I gained about 10 lbs back since then so I want to get back down to where I was...and stay there!!! Here are mine, specifically: SW (11/26/11) 141 lbs (tentative) Week 2 (12/03/11) 140 lbs Week 3 (12/10/11) 139 lbs Week 4 (12/17/11) 138 lbs…

What is the time frame on this? When are we starting??

Count me in!

That's me! Friend me, if you like. Sounds like we have similar stories.

I like this one: " Those who think they have not time for bodily exercise will sooner or later have to find time for illness."
