    in Eating After Midnight-Log as next day? Comment by dwmaestradeb July 2013
  • I don't think it really matters when you log it as long as you are consistent about it. If you're always having a meal at 1:00 a.m. on Saturday, then decide where you're going to put that meal and keep it there. I use 11:00 p.m. as my cut-off because that is when MFP moves me forward to the next day...anything I eat after…

  • If it doesn't have to be creamy, you might try mixing in some Italian dressing or some pico de gallo, too. Sounds weird, but tasty :) I second the mustard and lemon suggestions, also yummy.

  • You're not insane! I've just started walk-jogging with a modified Couch to 5K program (it's more like a Bed to 2K, but I'll take it). I did my research about finding good shoes and how to run safely without wearing myself out or doing any damage to my knees, which are the most affected part of my body. My family doctor and…
