Thanks, Jean!

Thanks!

To Grandmothercharlie: Sorry, I haven't learned how to post replies in the right place. Anyway, I hadn't paid any attention to TDEE before you brought it up and didn't even know what it was. I have been investigating and trying to understand it and how runtastic and fitbit and MFP work together. I think I get it now. At…

I just wanted to follow up and let everyone know how much your suggestions and information encouraged and helped me. I've increased and varied my exercise. This morning after doing a one hour water aerobics class I went for a 2 mile walk on hilly roads in my neighborhood. I did finally drop 2.5 lbs. and my clothes are…

Grandmotherch, Thanks. I will ponder the information you have passed on. You're more analytical than I am so you give me something to think about.

Thanks!

Love the sign! Thanks!

Thanks!

I'm finally showing some loss on the scale after 6 weeeks of no loss! Yay! Dropped 2 lbs.

Thanks, hayleyandpaig! Maybe switching it up will help.

Ha Ha! Love that animation!

GLH, thanks for taking the time to respond. I don't have a heart rate monitor but I did buy a fitbit last week which has motivated me to do more activity. My daughter and I walked yesterday and exceeded 10,000 steps. You're right, it does take concentrated effort, as well as time and the right circumstances. I will try to…

Thanks, Smilesback! Great advice

BobbieinCA, that's a good suggestion. I hope when I get settled back home in some kind of routine to get back to my water aerobics class in addition to walking when I can. Thanks for that nugget!

That was for you, ker95texas!

I definitely will give your suggestion a try when my life gets "back to normal," whatever that is. Right now I'm on a necessary trip and will just do the best I can. There always seems to be bumps in the road! I appreciate your response, Thanks so much!

Thanks, Jeanmrob. Maybe someone else has some ideas.

Congratulations!!!

Yes, it bothers me, too.

I made this today and it was delicious! My husband and I really enjoyed it. Thanks.

To Auntiebabs: Yours is a very reasonable approach! Thanks for the excellent tips and congratulations on your success!

This sounds delicious. I have copied it and hope to try it soon!

Homemade carrot cake muffin - 204 calories. Contains pineapple, grated carrot, nuts, raisins, partial whole wheat flour, eggs, some sugar. Made a batch yesterday and froze them so I can take one out at a time as needed.

That's the beauty of tracking calories on MFP. I normally try to plan ahead and enter how much I can eat of each item. Then when I've eaten it, I know I'm done. It's a psychological stop.
