  • I feel your pain!! I have struggled with staying on the workout/good eating wagon for the past 4 years. This past June after seeing my wedding photos, I decided something needed to change. Health is so much more than just tracking calories. I have lost over 15lbs since July doing by doing 30 minute daily workouts,…

  • I'm wondering if it is possible for the Leafs to have any more injuries. Currently we are missing: Reimer aka Optimus Reim, our starting Goalie (4-0-1) Connolly (first line center) Grabovski (second line center) MacArthur (second line) Armstrong (third line center) Apparently we are dressing 7 defense tonight since they…

  • My Moose finally went in water... Kinda! As I mentioned previously, she is TERRIBLE with heat, but what makes it worse is that she is terrified of water (even kiddie pools). But this weekend she sat by the lake, right on the edge, for a couple of minutes. THEN, she walked across a man-made stream. Greanted it didn't even…

  • I have a 1 year old pitt-something-something mix. She is brindle with a black tongue and takes up most of my attention. I try to walk her as much as I can, but she does NOT to well in the heat. On hot days I'm literally dragging her after the first half mile!! (and her tongue is draggin on the ground) Needless to say, I'm…

  • Sad but true... I am a die hard Leafs fan. We haven't won a cup in over 40 years... Any Leafs fan HAS to be die hard!

  • OK, so I'm a former college athlete and I'm embarrassed to say that I don't know how the HRM works in terms of calories. Does it automatically convert it for you, or do I need to know some kind of equation? I think that sounds like a great plan!
    in MFP Calorie Burn Values Comment by canadasaurus August 2011
  • I agree. Having realistic goals and meeting them helps to keep you motivated. Setting the bar TOO high is a really good way to get discouraged and fall off the healthy wagon.

  • Hmmmmm... maybe is was a glitch? I'll have to try again to eat back exercise calories and see what happens.
    in Net Calorie Dilema!! Comment by canadasaurus August 2011
  • The whole eating back my exercise calories still gives me the "starvation" message. When my net is below 1200 I get the message, even if I consume 2000 and work off 750!

  • I lost 2lbs this week!!!! Starting weight: 165lbs Current weight: 157lbs Last week's weight: 159lbs Weight Loss this week: 2lbs Goal weight: 135lbs

  • My current weight, as of (7/15), is 159 My previous weight was 160 I met my goal of losing 1lb since monday. I believe I met my goal because: I was diligent with recording my calories, and made sure I hit the proper numbers. I did not go over my calories goal at all since Monday. My goal for next week is to lose 2 lbs.…

    in Wednesday Weekly Weigh-In! Comment by canadasaurus July 2011
  • Agreed!!! Checking caloric values prior to going out to eat is REALLY helpful. I was shocked when I discovered how many calories are in some of my favourite "healthy" meals. Generally you can find 1 or 2 healthy options at any restaurant, you just can't be afraid to ask for it. For example: my friends like to go to Buffalo…
    in Hi I am new and need to lose 70lbs. Comment by canadasaurus July 2011
  • My current weight (as of 7/11) is 160. My goal for this week is to lose 1 lb (since it's already Monday, it's a short week!) This week I am going to focus on: Getting back into a routine of logging everything I eat (no exceptions)
    in 20-somethings Week Two Comment by canadasaurus July 2011
  • Thanks guys! I find that if I remind myself that I'm going to hate recording what I'm about to eat... then I probably shouldn't eat it! Also, as soon as I miss one day... it's a VERY slippery slope! Just got to stay on track!
