  • A lot of times I eat only half of a serving of something. You should be able to change the serving size but I am not sure how to change the calories per serving. If it is in your food diary you can click on the name of the food and then change the amount. I do not know how to change the calories per serving a food already…

  • Based on a 1,200 calorie diet (recommended to lose a pound a week), it states that the limit for sugar is 24 grams. When I am in my food diary, there is a "setting" tab that lets you choose which nutirent come up on your food diary (i.e. calories, fat, carb, potass, fiber, etc). I regularly go thru each setting to identify…

  • I have been keeping track of the limits for calories, fat, carb, potassium, fiber, etc. I have been pretty good about keeping within the recommended limits on each nutrition category. EXCEPT, I am CONSTANTLY over on my sugar by usually twice the amount. It almost seems impossible to stay under or at 24 grams. I am even…

  • I woke up this morning and weighed my self. I gained a pound. What is really frustrating is that I was sick yesterday, so sick I could not eat yesterday but still gained weight. I feel better today regarding being sick but am devastated that this past week I have been hanging around 150....with no loss. I cried all…

  • I am in the Chicagoland area. The amount of snow was about a foot but fortunately it was not compacted or heavy snow. I imagine I will be feeling it in my arms tomorrow. Though I am not a snow person per se, my walking buddy plows snow for a living so he could not walk with me this morning, but we both got a work out…

  • I just shoveled about a foot of snow for an hour. I know that it has to count towards my exercise for the day but am unsure of how to classify it. Any suggestions or knowledge of the calories burned per minute? Or would this be considered "strength training" in lieu of cardio?

  • This is too cool! I thought I was only averaging a little over three miles a day. Now I know it is 4 miles per day. Thank you!

  • I am in the same boat. One of the days, at the end of the day I was completing my food log. My daughter has some candy corn. I was eating them as I was typing my diary. I was so happy to be within my calorie range goal. my husband reminded me to add in the candy corn I was eating. When I did, I was instantly over my goal.…
    in So glad I found this!!!! Comment by Mlieb January 2008
  • Me too! Just joined last week. Tracking food really seems to help get an idea of what I need to be eating. I am shocked at some of the contents of some food (i.e. sodium, potassium, etc). I never really knew how much foods had until I saw my limits. One bowl of Mrs. Grass soup was my sodium intake for the day. Also found…
