I spent all day yesterday in a meeting where they supplied breakfast lunch and snacks. It is the first time I screwed up really bad since I joined MFP in January. When I got home and logged my calories, I was over by 1,000 calories.:sad: My question is for the next couple of days is it ok if I cut back by 100 or 200…

I gave up soda cold turkey on January 1st. It was hard the first two weeks, now I don't even miss it.:drinker:

I had a wonderful salad last night at Applebees with grilled shrimp that I plan on making at home. Spinach, fresh diced tomato, bacon pieces, roasted red peppers, red onions, toasted sliced almonds and hot bacon vinaigrette all topped with seasoned grilled shrimp. I just have to figure out how they made the vinaigrette, if…

I signed up and logged my exercise for today and earned 387 points.

I am down 12 lbs. since January, I don't know not drinking soda had anything to do with it. It is probably a combination of that and eating healthier, counting calories and exercising.

I drink regular club soda (no calories) and sometimes I add a little juice like cran-grape or something like that. I also will squeeze some lemon or lime. I haven't had a soda since January 1st. After the first two weeks I don't even miss it. If i were to have a soda I would have a regular one and not a diet because I have…

Thank you:flowerforyou:

My husband prefers Basmati Rice. Is that as healthy as brown rice, or is it considered a white rice?

Here is another calculator that might help you determine if 1200 is the correct intake for you. There are multiple calculators on this site to help you. http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm Thanks for the website it did help. I can actually eat a little more than I have been and still lose weight. That…

Thanks Mindy - I knew I was confused. Unfortunately, I still am. Putting exercise aside (which I do the elliptical 30 minutes 3 to 5 days a week) . I am trying to figure if my caloric intake is correct at 1200, or should I be eating more, whether I exercise or not. Thanks for your help.

I have been on this site everyday since January 1st, and I've lost 11 pounds. I haven't lost anything in about 3 weeks. I am 5 ft. tall and it says I should eat 1200 calories. So far I get it. My BMR is 1173 (which I understand is what I burn if I do nothing all day). I get that too. Should I be adding more calories to my…

I'm in NH too. There is so much snow now that it is dangerous. You can't see at stop signs or yield signs anymore. People can't see coming out of their driveways, and tonight were expecting another 10 inches. Somebody rescue me.

9 pounds and counting:flowerforyou:

Weare, NH

7 lbs. and counting. :happy:

Do you have to buy it in a health food store or can you get it in a grocery store?

Thanks:smile:

Does a plain cup of green tea count as a water?

Hi I found this sight last week and I love it. I have been keeping track of all my meals for the first time and it is really working. I am actually losing weight and it really isn't as hard as it has always seem to be in the past. I never counted calories before but this sight makes it so easy. I have been reading lots of…
