I actually like the FitBit interface better. What's the reasoning behind logging food in MFP vs FB?

Haha! I haven't been logging into myfitnesspal, but FitBit. I promise, I'm eating. :D

I have a fitbit myself, so I guess I shall start doing that. I wish things could go faster than .5lb/week though. Harrumph.

@editorgrrl Thanks for the suggestion. One question - if you are only losing .5lbs a week, how can you tell if you are on track? Weight fluctuates so much that you could weigh yourself once a week and be eating well, only to weigh yourself again the next week and find out you weight 2lbs more just because of water weight…

Thanks! I probably will look into getting different shoes now. I think mine are a bit worn out and not built for running outdoors. I'll try the interval training as well...that seems to be more my style. I liked running with my sister side by side though. :(

Thanks! I usually do something like that naturally. I'm just afraid of adding back all the calories I just burned because I can only run a mile, which translates out to about only 165 calories. :(

Thanks! I've actually looked into the couch to 5k plan before and ended up over extending myself and quitting! I wanted to "stay on track" with the program and was stubborn.

I do yoga when I get the chance, and I carry around a 15lb bag everywhere...does that count? Haha! I guess I'll have to try to step up my game in that area then! Thanks for the tip. :)

Thanks for the tip! I would love to run on a trail, but I have something called Dysautonomia and I have to exercise at night. I wouldn't feel to safe on a trail at night...

My sister uses those "toe" shoes: http://www.vibramfivefingers.com/products/Five-Fingers-Classic-Womens.htm She says they are amazing. My shoes just just regular tennis shoes and probably need replacing soon. I'm just a college student about to graduate and I am worried about finances at the moment. But, I suppose health…

Mmm...this is a tough one! Greek Yogurt is almost always in my fridge All Natural Peanut Butter Milk Kettle Corn or Popcorn...perfect snack! Fresh Salsa Hummus Green Tea Chai Tea Strawberries Chicken Laughing Cow Cheese

I am so busy that I don't have enough time to always drive out to the gym and drive home. I have a few DVD's that help me and they are so fun! I have a ballet conditioning CD which is mainly stretching and toning. I also have Bollywood Dance Workout DVDs...they are so exciting and you just can't help but laugh when you do…

Thank you all for the encouraging comments! I love to read about other people's progress so feel free to friend me! I'll be checking out that wedding group as well! Good luck on all of your health and fitness endeavors!
