  • I love bringing my bento to work so I don't eat terrible takeout! This one is romaine lettuce with cucumbers and shakshouka (eggs poached in tomato with spices, peppers and onions). I love seeing everyone else's lunch ideas!

  • I don't do cheat days because the whole point of me doing MFP is to track what I eat. A day where I'm not logging does not compute to me! If I know I'm going out or doing something special I'll eat a little less the day before and budget those calories and splash out. Lately however I seem to still lean towards better…

  • I am one of those daily scale watchers and know EXACTLY what you mean! Someone should hide mine! (or toss it out the window, or bury it...) I think most people will recommend weighing in once a week.

  • Just get back to what you've been doing. Crazy bad eating days happen, it helps to log it all for accountability.

  • I second the idea of going online and checking out their menu before hand so you can set up a plan of attack. I've done this knowing that I'd be going out and I was able to pick out what I wanted to eat and then schedule the rest of my meals around it to make it work. Social eating is a minefield!

  • Sure, I've had days where I've splashed out and had beers and terrible snacks since I started but I still make a point of logging them so I can visualize what I've done and use them to make better decisions later on.

  • I will second and third and fourth that starting a weight loss regime has helped my reflux. I used to have to take a lot of pills to keep mine at bay because all my favourite foods were triggers. (I love coffee, alcohol, and spicy things!) Since I started MFP a couple weeks ago I've only had to take pills a couple of times…
