yep - very cute :D

F1 Practice session - Bahrain GP

I've been wondering about the calorie burn that endomondo states for activities - thinking 'that seems a lot' I'd like to have my activities logged with as much accuracy as possible, but I really like the convenience of letting endomondo just do its thing and add the result into MFP for me convenience wins out but it would…

Like most responses here I too weigh myself without clothes on, but this method does present challenges I've been banned from 5 WeightWatchers meetings so far...... :D

although I go to a WW meeting every week and have done so for almost 4 years now, I don't do WW points plan, I count calories via MFP instead. the points plan DOES WORK if you stick to it, but like many have said, it's a bit of a ball-ache to translate everything into points and MFP is just so much easier, and works just…

I agree with the above replies - if you are logging your P90X activities in MFP then you shouldn't count them (again) as part of your routine in terms of upgrading your routine from sedentary to active, otherwise you're counting that activity twice and MFP will be telling you to have too many calories

if you get a good group with people you can relate to and enjoy seeing every week then it works great in terms of having a peer group who are in it together with you, they'll be eager to see how you've got on from one week to the next and so you'll be eager to have a good story to tell each week when you go there. this…

Did no-one get my root canal joke then? :(

I totally agree with this - if this is the case with your own one-upper then if you are not able to smile at them for being so under-developed as an adult to need to do this (a form of pity if anything) then best find a way to not be around them. funnily enough I myself actually did have two root canals without Novocain,…

just smile graciously and say 'how interesting....' and don't worry about it - it's not important

my diary is open, you're welcome to have a nose in there and tell me off if you catch me misbehaving ;)

where are you going for pizza? at Pizza Hut a Hawaiian pizza is: Italian: small - 656 meduim - 1206 large - 1768 Pan: small - 700 meduim - 1470 large - 2344 Stuffed Crust - 2448 Cheesy Bites - 2528

great start, keep up the good work and stay motivated :)

that's great! what I find a great 'real world' visualisation of the excess baggage that needs to be shed is to use lard in cling-film packaged lumps of various weights - 3lb, 2lb, 1lb, 0.5lb - lard is pretty similar to what it is that you are actually losing - body fat. if you have some of these (perhaps even to the whole…

sounds great! where did you have your check done?

well done - I started last week and it's a killer!

Some fantastic feedback and advice here, thanks very much for posting Clintswifeymomof4!

bump - just wondering if anyone has any input on this topic? I've started using a value of 100 cal per 100g of raw mince used in my recipes as a nice round number for ease of use given my findings above.

just ignore & delete and don't give it another thought - if you refuse to accept this kind of crap then it's not yours, you can only be hurt by it if you accept it so don't. if someone offers you a cream cake/big mac etc you can either accept it and suffer the damage to your program by taking it, or refuse it leaving your…

Hi, and welcome why not fill out your profile info and add a picture so we can get to know you a little :D

there's a table at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_Daily_Intake based on 2,000 calories per day intake, but if you set your age, weight & desired weight loss here on MFP you will see your recommended amount shown at the bottom of your daily food diary customised for your specific details (you may need to go into…

welcome! fill out your profile so we can get to know you a little :)

I've just got this one too, but I'm going to do it after I've finished the 30 Day Shred which I started today I've got Bob Harper's yoga workout too to try later on (The Biggest Loser Workout - Weight Loss Yoga)

I just finished the first session of LVL 1 - what am I meant to do tomorrow, the same section again of move on to LVL 2? BTW, I'm well out of shape!! I paused it a few times and even skipped a couple of activities to catch my breath - as a result my total duration was 33 min with average HR 143 and max HR 188. This is…

I'd start off by mapping a nice 5km circular route from your home (use google maps, mapmyrun, endomondo or various other online resources) and then just walk it - 5km is only 3.1 miles and most people even if very unfit can do this in under an hour. then just keep on upping your pace each time you do it according to your…

Hi, welcome and well done on joining MFP and committing to doing something to change things in your life - if motivation is an issue I find having plenty of MFP friends on hand helps with all the news feed activity that goes on triggering support and comments to keep you going. all the best for 2011 :)
