I'm kind of sad as I was very excited originally to come to MFP and found this board and thought "how cool to try and lose weight with other LDS members who can relate". But it's so dead here. I was hoping to socialize and share recipes and weight loss stories.

So what you are saying is that if I have low to moderate intake of carbs, my body will go into fat burning instead of carb burning? Theoretically speaking? In answer to your question about my heart rate being elevated: yes, it is elevated consistently until break time, and then after break it's consistent until my shift is…

Ok so I have a question then. I work at UPS unloading trucks for about 4 to 5 hours per day, 5 days per week... on average I unload about 900 boxes per hour. That's extensive exercising for along period of time. Plus I can't even tell you how many squats I do per hour as I have to squat down to pick up boxes off the floor…

Wow... I'm going to take a pic of myself tomorrow at work! Sweat drips out of the back of my hair onto my neck as if someone were pouring water over my head. My face and chest turn beat red like I'm having a heart attack. Is it normal to sweat so much? I wonder if doctors could do anything to slow down the sweating that is…

Absolutely! I've been doing this for almost a week now and I'm horrified by what goes into my mouth! I know what I'm eating but never realized the calories or fat or sodium, etc. I was eating. It's no wonder I recently gained 20 lbs in a few weeks! What a true eye opener this site is for me.

40/30/30 <carbs/protein/fat> I'm trying to tweak it... I have a hard time losing when I eat carbs. But, I don't want to give them up completely. I have a very physically active job and I also walk a lot, so I need some carbs. I crave potatoes and pasta, although I don't usually eat much of them. I try to get my carbs from…

How often is it safe enough to drink a GS? I was recently reading a book on cleansing and the book mentioned smoothies as part of a liquid cleansing thing <detoxing the liver>. I also don't want to go into starvation mode, that's when I raid the fridge! lol

Wow! How great is this to have support on MFP through LDS friends?! My name is Charlene, and I'm a new convert.. baptized June 24th (my son and I). I was born and raised in MA and my son was born in FL. We have just recently moved to MA where we were lucky enough to have a life changing visit by our local ward…

Just joining in! Went to the zoo today with my son and friends. Walked around at about 2.0 mph for 3.5 hours! During a normal week for me, I usually walk about 2.6 miles per day... in the cooler months it usually takes me about 20 minutes, but in the warmer months it takes me 40 minutes (I hate sweating). Am starting a new…
