  • I'm having same issue on all pages I try to load works fine on silk browser but just started happening two days ago.my other tabs work normally so its not chrome.
  • Depends on time of day you were weighed on each, what you were wearing at each weigh in, as mentioned before, what you ate, water retention, etc. I generally take my scale as more accurate since I weigh in first thing in the morning after using bathroom with little to no clothing. I'm usually about 5-8lbs higher at dr with…
  • While I 'get' the point of this message, weight loss is not just about looks it's about overall health and while the above statement is true, it's not the best course of action. You have to start somewhere so yes, this message may be a good place to start but keep your health in mind and strive to make better choices as…
  • 1. It's not a 'diet' it's a lifestyle. This means it's not something you do to drop weight then return to the standard american diet. This is a food choice most make due to food sensitivities from eating from an adulterated agricultural system and not just something to do because everyone else is doing. 2. It's not about…
  • I've been following the Paleo lifestyle since 2014. I've had my bad times (due to depression and chronic pain) but I always come back after making myself feel worse and gaining weight back. As for ice cream, it depends on if you go dairy free or not. That is an option if dairy (ie cow milk) doesn't bother you. It does me.…
  • @CricketKate I'm so sorry to hear of your cancer but glad it is gone. I'm glad you are still seeking and giving support on here. One day at a time. <3
  • I'm in. I'll add my goals and mtd totals when I get to my desktop. I use endomondo to track my walks and Pacer to count my steps.
  • I was looking for this kind if group in December. Guess I was too early. I'll post my goals and my mtd when I get to my desktop.
  • Now this was a weird one that totally rocked once you got past the weird factor! My cousin also used to eat pb and potato chips crushed up in the sandwich (especially at the beach). she said that way she couldn't tell if sand got in her sandwich lol
  • Not weird. I was thinking it sounded Asian inspired (peanut/sesame chicken) while reading. My daughter likes to put apricot jelly on her eggs. THAT to me is weird. Only thing I could suggest is trying an online search or checkout ALLRECIPES.COM they generally have some really good recipes there and check the comments…
  • I have 4 but that's because I replied to an old post before I realized it's age. Technically that would be 3 active threads that I killed off in the last 3 months.
  • If I didn't look at your profile before and after to see your full length I never would have guessed that the face shot you used for before that you were even heavy, let alone overweight. Just goes to show everyone is different and we all gain and lose differently. Congrats on your loss and continued success! These are…
  • Patsy, re:meat issues - are you eating 100% grass fed/finished meats or conventionally grown feedlot animals? They are processed for slaughter and treated with a corn based acid of some kind (as I've heard in various places, but haven't proven research for myself) so this may be some of your reaction as it could really be…
  • I too get nauseous and achy intestines for several hours. I find I need to force myself to burp to get any relief. This for me is a digestive issue. I do have gallstones but it wasn't always this way. I even have the symptoms if the avocado is in a recipe vs eating alone. I'm going to try reducing the amount eaten at one…
  • other than it says to drink 8 cups a day at the bottom of your diary, no real reason and some "medical experts" have claimed that drinking this amount is not necessary and could in fact be harmful. Be mindful of what you drink but, as said, barring medical info for specific issues, don't force yourself to drink more than…
  • OMG -100lbs is a MINI GOAL?!?!?!? you've so accomplished a MAJOR goal here!! OWN IT!!! You look fabulous. It's not uncommon for those who see you everyday to not notice, although 100lbs is a big difference. Maybe they are not sure how to approach you about it since it may be a sensitive issue? i lost about 30lbs once and…
  • I have been eating a Personal Paleo Code (Chris Kresser) style of Paleo since January 2nd and I never did the 30 day intro and I'm down 16lbs without exercising (due to back issues). In the beginning I did not give up my dairy (cheese, yogurt and butter) but lately I have cut it way way down as a result of possible…
  • You and your "dread"mill - LOVE IT!! Sorry I haven't posted. Been a rough month for me with snowy/icy/cold weather grating on my fragile bones. Most of my walking was at grocery stores out of necessity and not anywhere close to what I wanted to do. My body is just NOT cooperating! 2/4- 13 minutes 2/7- 95 minutes 2/8- 265…
  • ok I can follow that logic but wouldn't you then proceed to lose that water weight at some point? I don't if I maintain a higher carb level. I have been using MFP so I know I'm not over or under eating as I'm supposed to be in weight loss mode not maintenance. My point was just to look at macro settings and see if changing…
  • I'd have to say make sure they are quality carbs and not just junk food to get them in though. Not sure how you can say females won't bulk up. What about women body builders who are quite bulky yet very lean? I would suggest (only because diary is not open) if you have a higher carb allowance than protein, try reducing it…
  • Pretty sure it wasn't the product but the way the messages are being delivered. They're trying to macho up products that really can't be. Just say look you have this problem, try this product. I don't know why they have to go through all that trouble to make mini-soap operas just to push products anyway. And honestly, if…
  • Apology accepted, but you started it with the snide comment about semen and jizz being entered by MFP staff and denying what was shown by multiple people to be part of the website. I rarely use my phone to enter food because I can't see the same selections as online and also can't see the nutritional content to confirm if…
  • You could enter the foods you eat regularly, but I don't know if you can find the potassium information on manufactured products. You can refer to the usda website when adding your food items and then they will show up in your MY FOODS tab to use when adding to your diary. Then if you have the K info, you an add it and be…
  • provide an item for reference. We're only going by what we are told on the website by it's creators. Unless people are hacking the system, I don't know of a way to enter items without an asterisk. If you do, please share so that we can all be enlightened and the wiser regarding what we are logging. for what it's worth,…
  • posted right below the search results box on diary entry shows this: * = Nutritional information provided by another MyFitnessPal member therefore, no asteric means provided by MFP company people from a standard souce (probably usda website) not that they're just making it up off products they use.
  • the entries without the asterisk was entered by the MFP creators and not members. Different people enter things differently to track different thigns and I also believe that some brands put out regional variants of their products, maybe due to sourcing of ingredients, but I find most of the MFP generated entries are…
  • I agree on this 100%. My own family, some with and some without incomes all cry the same thing when I talk about eating better (I'm eating Paleo now since January 2nd or as close to it as I can re:all grass fed meat, but I'm working up to it-which btw I'm doing 100% on $400 foodstamps and feeding 3 people. Only reason I'm…
  • Bravo to you! I wish I had the land to do all that. Right now I'm planning my gardening areas (mostly pots on the patio but I'm determined to stop buying crap "conventional" nutrient deficient produce). I also compost and vermicompost. I'm hopeful to have more than I need so I can sell it off at local markets and make some…
  • As long as you're meeting your goal on a weekly basis you should see weight loss. This up and down is actually good to keep your body guessing as to what it's going to get. You might consider doing the same for your workout routine as well to change it up and you may even see some more weight drop off (especially if you've…
