bumping to have.

The reason is because fitbit shows what you have burned up to that point - and MFP shows what the *expect* you to burn for the day. Fitbit will adjust based on your activity. I know for my days, I am most active throughout the day until dinner. And then I sit down and stay sitting until bed. So, when Fitbit syncs around 4…

Disconnected and reconnected - didn't help me. Hasn't worked all day. :(

WOW player (Alliance) for 7 years now. Lover of Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter AND any and all musicals! Still play HeroQuest (the boardgame) and have been writing quests for years for my extended family - yes we sometimes dress the part - no I am not ashamed. Also a fan of Elvis and playing the Sims…

For all of those giving you crap about logging it - they OBVIOUSLY have never done it! It is one hell of a workout - and 2 hours is INSANE! Wonderful that you saved her life - and I WOULD log it (as long as it isn't something that is done daily as a job duty). Since you say it is done infrequently, it is NOT already built…

The Dark Tower series by Stephen King. NOT the usual horror Steven King - an epic Western/Fantasy 7-book series. I am NOT a King fan, but I LOVE these books!

Currently listening to the running dishwasher and the turning of pages. My nine year old is reading on the couch, so the TV and radio are off.

I have already lost around 85 pounds - most of which was before I joined. It has taken a little over three years because I was just increasing exercise and trying to eat a little less without any sort of monitoring. Once I joined this site, the weight came off a little quicker, but I haven't really been at it since…

Deacon Briarwood um...just no

There is an option to create recipes on here. I enter all of my home-cooked meals under the recipe option so that I get the exact nutritional information from what I made. I do not cook different meals, I eat the same meals as I always have. I eat a smaller portion than before, and I will add more veggies if I am still…

Snack that my kids love = Peanut Butter Banana "Sushi" 1 slice whole grain bread Peanut Butter 1/2 Banana Sliced in long strips 2 Strawberries sliced Spread a thin layer of Peanut Butter on the whole grain bread. Lay out the banana slices on one edge of the bread and place the strawberry slices next to the bananas. Roll…

Metformin really helps with the weight loss - but the first few weeks on it are really horrible to the stomach. :( AND if I forget to take it for a few days, the horrible stomach comes back when I start taking it again. Metformin helps regulate blood sugars (even if you aren't diabetic) and it is also lowers your appetite.…

Yes - with Atkins you are cutting out the breads, chips, and all the sugary sweets. You could gain weight on Atkins - but I think that generally people feel fuller on the protein and veggies and then don't eat as many calories as compared to the chips and sweets and such. It is all theory. If you applied yourself, you…

I indulged on 1/2 cup of Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia!

It is currently -11 degrees outside in Southwest Michigan - Windchill is -33! Schools are closed because the windchill is in danger zone.

Mini-golf is one of my favorite dates! I also have an arcade near me that you can play all day for $5. It is the coolest little arcade with all retro games - and tons of pinball!

Great idea! Bummed I didn't even think to do this earlier. So - bathroom tile with 10 pound weight register anywhere from 8.2 to 15 pounds! Guess that answers that, the bathroom floor and tile are completely unlevel and unreliable. Dining room registered 10.2 - Basement registered 10.0. Basement it is! Thanks. And I do use…

Yesterday I sent my hubby to a football game as an early Christmas present.

I confess that I have had absolutely no motivation to do any logging or exercising since the cold weather hit. It was like a switch - snow falls, BAM!!! couch potato. I confess that I still try to eat the right portion sizes at meals - but my snacking is up about 200%! :(

I don't drink alcohol (it always makes me feel ill and I get super hot). I will probably have milk with dinner, and some pop while watching the game - and then I will try to force water through....because I do NOT want to drink a 2-liter of pop...LOL.

The meal itself will not be high count for me - because we do SOOOOO much snacking!!!! We always go to my mother-in-laws (who I actually love and adore...who knew?). She puts the relish trays and cheese and crackers out at 9 a.m. She will also have 12 dozen cookies done up for snacking while watching the parade and later…

Cadburry eggs or hard-boiled eggs?

Up to 90.2 miles moved!

In to hear an answer - I do these from time to time too...have always logged as walking, but felt that wasn't exactly right.
