Is it ok to post a screen shot of my RENPHO scale results or does it have to be a picture of the scale readout itself?

I ran a half marathon in the UK last year. I wasn't aware the passing lane there is the opposite of what it is in the US. To any runners who dodged me at the 2019 Great Stirling Run before I grabbed a clue when I slowed down, I sincerely apologize.

We make banana Kodiak pancakes and really enjoy them. Maybe it's the real maple syrup we put on it.

ACV Proven uses: 1. Hair rinse to make hair soft and shiny (dilute 1:10 with water) 2. Fruit fly trap (dilute with water and add 1 drop of dish detergent to kill water surface tension) 3. Reflux help for people with too high stomach pH. People with too low stomach pH will suffer extra when taking vinegar. 4. Skin tonic…

How much below 1200 are you eating and how often are you dropping below 1200? 1200 is the minimum you should eat to ensure you are getting adequate nutrition. Too little food coupled with a high fiber diet could definitely increase your digestive issues.

There is an app called seconds pro that allows you to create your own prompted run plan. I used it when I was training for a half marathon. It's completely customizable to suit your needs.

I use my instant pot to prep. Boneless, skinless chicken breast comes out fantastic in the IP. Brown the chicken breasts, place on the trivet and season with your favorite seasonings (I usually just sprinkle one packet of garlic and herb dressing mix), add one cup chicken broth or water, 8 minutes plus 10 minutes natural…

I finally learned that not everything is about me and others opinions of me is none of my business. I used to be hurt when people didn't like me but these days, I just don't care. It's not worth my time to worry about what others think of me. Take me or leave me. My true friends care and that is all that counts.

I am one smoot plus two inches tall. I weigh 632 Guadalupean bananas or roughly six times less than a blue whale heart.

Some people do. It really depends on how many you drink and what percentage of your daily calories come from soda. If you drink quite a bit and eliminating it would put you in a calorie deficit, it will work for you.

Hello everyone. I'm a wife, mother of six (all grown), grandmother of three (seven if you included granddogs and grandcats). I work full time as a financial analyst and am working on my masters degree. I compete in the Scottish Highland Games and am ramping up my training for the upcoming season. To get ready, I lift heavy…

Whatever you choose, a good trick is to order foods "dry". That way, they don't add oils and butters for flavor which is very common at a steakhouse.

Agree with @Cherimoose What recommendations does your doctor or physical therapist have? I would start there.

I visibly see a difference when my food tracking is on point. I am very active but only look fit when my calories are in check. I'm not sure if that is the answer you are looking for but food is really the key, not the work outs. Working out keeps me mobile but it doesn't affect my waist line.

I responded in your other thread on the same subject.

I recommend you look at some websites like eating well or eat this much for ideas on meal plans. You can eat very well and still maintain a deficit. (Personally, if I were you I would eat closer to 1400 calories a day but to stay near what MFP gave you, we'll assume you stay at 1300. Here is a sample menu for a 1300…

I took a look at your diary. Are you really logging every single thing you are eating? I ask because one day you only logged a subway sandwich, one cup of cottage cheese and some raspberries. Also, the chicken marsala you eat...did you create a recipe using exactly the weights of the ingredients or use a general listing…

Can you open up your food diary? Seeing what you’re eating in an entire day would be helpful.

I see the “disagree” warriors are out today. If someone disagrees, feel free to explain what you disagree with otherwise I have to assume it was an accident and meant to be an “insightful” or a “hug”.

Did MFP assign you 1290? According to your stats, you could eat 1450 calories a day and should lose about one pound a week. You should avoid eating less than 1200 - it is unhealthy and unnecessary. Again, gaining 2 ounces is really not a concern. Weight fluctuations are completely normal. You've only been at this for a…

It's not unusual to lose a large amount of weight when first starting a new way of eating. It should taper off to a safer weight loss rate within the first three weeks. If it doesn't, you can reassess your calorie needs especially if you are exercising.
-
Hi Debra...from another Debra. What is your age, height and weight...and how many calories are you eating a day? Are you weighing and logging ALL of your food? If you are eating less than the plan allows, you are not following the plan to a tee. 2 ounces is not problematic and definitely not a plateau. A plateau is weeks…

Someone would still need to buy the animals to graze on the land. Someone needs to take care of the animals on that land. That costs money. The average consumer doesn't want to pay higher prices for free range and grass fed animals. Farmers can't afford to invest money in a commodity that is not going to yield a profit.…

One thing I did at the beginning of the year is decide that it is OK to un-follow and unfriend family. I have family members who can be extremely toxic. Some of the things they post are things that I would never, ever allow on my news feed but I would just snooze them because, well, they are family. I always felt obligated…
