This not helpful, they have not updated the post in over 24 hours, my fitbit is syncing and getting the data from MFP but the data from FitBit is not being collected, It is like MFP have cut off allowing Fitbit to post to MFP

I have a similar problem, my doctor prescribed me a strong anti histamine, he said I am basically allergic to my own sweat, I also get headaches when I exercise too

Hormones play a big part in weight loss too, sometimes hormone inbalances can cause problems, ie thyroid hormones could be slightly off and slow weight loss down. Many people refuse to accept the scientific theories around leptin and ghrelin and lack of sleep, here is a link to one of these studies…

water drinking was a marketing ploy by a branded bottled water company, if you look for the evidence that backs up 6-8 glasses a day, you will not find any, well no independent medical data anyway, in fact now warnings from the medical community are coming out about the dangers of drinking too much water this article gives…

when I went to a GP about why I was not losing weight on a 250 deficit, I was told by the medical professional to drop my intake to 1000 a day maximum, lets just say I will not be seeing that GP again.... so just saying that even if you do seek medical help, they may decide that your calorie levels are ok, its weird but it…

I ate exactly the same for 2 days with no exercise but the little prediction box told me 2 different weights, after that I stopped taking notice...

I am from Blackpool, Lancashire. Feel free to add me

the eight glasses of water was a marketing gimmick for Evian water in the 80's, fitness gurus jumped on it along with the diet industry. But drinking plenty of fluids in hot weather is good for you and beware not to drink too many and put electrolytes out of balance..

weight gain is listed as a side effect of ssris now, it is known in the medical field that they affect thyroid function and slowing metabolism down, Lustral has a thyroid warning, stating thyroid testing should be done on long term users. Anything over 6 months is classed as long term use. For those people who have to say…

I have been lax in logging recently, and am in need of motivation, I have sent requests to those above me. I seem to have a problem with finding my metabolic rate, seems I gain weight and lose weight, the same few pounds. I am trying to keep up with healthy eating and have broke my goals down to 10lb goals. Feel free to…

I could not look in your diary there was no tab, I noticed it said you had no friends so I sent you a friend request

I aint complaing I have a sweet tooth, and if it is a little higher than the recommended I don't mind, cos I know 11 tsp is a lot less than I was consuming....

maybe people get a virus that sets off fat storage, and no matter what they do they are unable to turn that switch off. Maybe there are people out there that have such a virus but are unaware and are being condemned for being fat and are beating themselves up for fatness, not everyone is looking for a quick fix or…

Oh dear we seem to be the same, I am no longer dieting, cos that seems to be a trigger for me to binge, I am making the changes to keep me on track, stopping buying the junk, not listening to the tv/radio ads about food, I use tumblr and follow people on there with healthy lifestyles and find the pics they post an…

42, but 3 years on and still not a huge amount, just the sides and a streak in the front about an inch wide, but you only see them when hair needs redying

I am using BMI as an indicator of something to work towards, I know that I can never be in the healthy BMI range as when this happens I am anorexic, but what annoys me is that the NHS use this tool and only this tool, I have to tell them to check my records or they will force me back into anorexia, for me even at a…

I look huge in any mirror, photo or reflective surface but then again I do have 50lbs min to lose for my 5'2 height, so being smaller does show my weight more. I have noticed one thing though, near me is the local council run gym, it's above the local library. The library happens to have windows, I thought these windows…

I have been making small changes daily, now most of what I eat is made from scratch. First thing I ditched was cereal, I found I wanted to eat 2 or more bowls of cereal, now I have a fruit salad, varies depending on the fruit I have in and pro-biotic yoghurt for breakfast, I find that if I eat heavily processed food now it…

it seems some people are happy to ignore community guidelines and then tell people " honest opinion" unfortunately we live in a society that does not like admitting the culture of bullying still goes on but in the disguise of honesty, banter or jokes. Some people find it hard to lose weight initially, some find using…

I have no idea what to suggest but would be interested to know if this works... the way you have handled the binging and stopping it seems on the surface a very good plan, please keep us updated on how this work, would be interested in trying it

wow, I want I want, sounds so gooddd..... wait... hmmpf.... oh sod it... where do I sign up... but seriously... so cute

another spammer rkbaba19, seems they are an astrologist.....

ooh sound absolutely heavenly, gonna defrost some chicken and make this tomorrow

I came off the meds with the GP's blessing, he said it was ok as long as I worked out as in his opinion exercise is more efficient than meds for lifting mood, we also worked out the foods to eat to help heal my body, as my metabolism has obviously been damaged from eating below 1000 cals for most of my adult life. I have…

For me, I spent 3 weeks in bed and lost tons of weight, the problem was when other people started being mean about how I looked, I emotionally ate and gained tons of weight back, looking back I know now the meaness was due to how good I looked in clothes, as I kept the weight off for about 2 years, then the ex started…

Thank you all, I have come off the anti depressants, (6 months ago) so hopefully they will be fully out of my system in the next few months. My aunt suffered with fybroids, she had a hysterectomy they were so bad. the only meds I actually take are my antihistamine as I react to my sweat when working out, and pain meds,…

You deal with it by remembering why you are there and putting earbuds in, listening to music and ignoring them... they obviously do not take their fitness as serious as you, keep on at it, you will have the last laugh when you scult the mega body they can only dream of or "photoshop" lol

I can eliminate all chocolate from the house but come that time of the month its like I am on autopilot and will go to the shop and buy chocolate and a whole lot more.... I cannot control myself, I cannot exercise as I fill a tampon in 10 minutes on the first day so am prettty much housebound and in severe pain, its…

How about teatox??? Drink nothing but herbal and fruit teas for 3 days, but remember to log each one 1 cal over so 5 cals nothing better than overestimating than underestimating... I read on the forum we do not weigh and log food correctly, so adding a few cals will help with the teatox :-)

I love the Zumba classes, like one of the other posters said, it doesn't matter whether you put the wrong arm up or if you get the steps wrong, your having a go and enjoying it, I made new friends at Zumba and we have a right giggle, I have the dvds for at home but to be honest I have never even looked at them, I much…
