^^ Only if you check the box that says "add to database" :wink: **ETA - The barcode scanner is on the app (phones, ipads/tablets, ipods, etc)

Are you using the webpage or app? I don't see the asterisks on the app, but I do on the website. They can be hard to spot because there are SOOO many user entered items. Change the way you search (try using a keyword, like raw, for example) And whatever you do, if you add a food, don't add it to the database, just keep it…

Not for me, but my son has horrible reactions to food dyes. He becomes an alter ego - combative, off-the-wall, cries at the drop of a hat, destructive, hyper... all of those fun things. We limit the preservatives and colors now.

MFP is free.

Hi! I'm on the end of my 20's (waah! haha) .. I'll be 30 in December. I am 5'3 and a half - can't forget that!! - and I weigh, currently, 164. My goal is to get down to 135. I have myself set to lightly active and 1 pound a week for a loss. I am given 1450 calories a day (I think.. I can't remember at the moment haha) I…

ooooohhhhh I like you!

The child isn't responsible enough to keep her cell phone charged, yet she's good to travel many many miles away, alone? Ok then! I think what bothers me is that the mother doesn't seem interested in her child's activities. I'd be there as a support to her audition, I'd be travelling with them, not only to ensure safety,…

skinnytaste.com .. every time! The quick marinara sauce is beyond amazing. I've tried a lot of her recipes and they've all been a hit!!

A big ol' poutine

Again, why? What happens after the month?

Why were you doing 70 squats?

I don't enjoy deer, but maybe it wasn't properly cooked, I found it game-y and greasy. Moose, on the other hand, slow cooked with a little vinegar or teriyaki ... yum!! I'm Aboriginal, so we are "allowed" to hunt year round. Those in my community respect the animals though and only hunt within season. Most of the time, the…

I know you have a deadline of sorts, but with so little to lose, you may not want to take such a drastic cut from TDEE. I'd say 15%, or maybe even 10%. You'll move a little slower with scale weight, but if you stick with it, keep going with your workouts and if you aren't already, lift heavier. You'll reshape your body and…

Is your first role of a 'fat people ambassador' going to be to bash 'skinny' people?? Because that's what I see.

Poke fun all you want, but this summer HAS been really hot and humid - at least in Eastern Canada. Those with the "try living in _______ (insert hot area)" ... how long have you lived in the hot climate? You're most likely acclimated to the heat/humidity. In a lot areas of Canada, we get maybe a week or 2 of hot, sticky…

Life is too short to drink truly disgusting protein drinks. You may need to check expiry dates if it's sat for a year. There's no real reason to detox anything. Your body is a well functioning machine and it cleanses itself on a daily basis.

In August, I will be at this for 2 years. This year I've lost nothing, but I'm JUST NOW starting to realize that I'm much smaller than I was. I'm JUST NOW realizing that hey, I don't look too bad!! The brain takes a LONG time to catch up sometimes.

Nova Scotia!

I had one while I lost the biggest chunk of my weight loss. It screwed with my period though. I wish I was able to love it. I mean, I loved everything BUT the TOM issue. I had it removed in January and haven't lost a single pound since then.

Holistic bananas?? It came straight from the unicorn's @ss, right?? Dairy DOES kill. 22 people die each year by being trampled on, or kicked by, a cow. :huh:

My entire family is in tae kwon do. My husband, 5 year old daughter and I are yellow belts, my son is a green belt and my brother is an orange belt (WTF style). We are not very fit, aside from my son. My husband and brother even less so. The thing is, the more you participate and practice, the more fit you become.

^^ I just cleaned the mud off of mine. Still works fine! OP - The strap isn't a hassle at all. Wet sensors, lift shirt, attach, clip the little thingy in the middle, lower shirt. Done! You probably take more time putting a leash on the dog or tying your shoes.

And so much of this!!! There was a girl by herself on an A-frame obstacle. She was frozen at the top, I'm pretty sure she was crying. We all coached her down. When she was done, I gave her a huge high-five and a way to go. There are ALWAYS hands of strangers wanting to help you out of a mud pit. Everyone is so helpful!!

I did the Mud Hero on the weekend. I frickin LOVED every minute (well, maybe not the 1k up a ski hill haha) .. It was muddy, challenging and fun! For this one, it was 6k and 16 obstacles. They had "showers" .. essentially a PVC pipe with holes in it. You get one stream of water. I mean, it was enough to rinse SOME mud off.…

Hi! BMR = the lowest amount you should be eating to sustain proper bodily function. TDEE = Maintenance level At this point in your weight loss journey, I wouldn't be too consumed with eating under BMR. Did you set your activity level to account for walking around at work? If you put yourself as Lightly Active, than no,…

How many calories are you eating each day?

... all of the above

CK Free, or good ol' Adidas .. I love the smell of either!

Finally!

I'm 20% smaller than I think. I picked #7 and based on measurements, I'm #3. I still don't see it lol but it's eye opening!
