I've been sick for the last week, so have forgotten to log... it's possible they're forgetting to log their stuff. 600 calories is way too low! I also thought MFP had a cap; at least they do on the app. Maybe breach it first with a non-direct comment first. For instance, if they're missing a log for a meal (breakfast,…

I also work 6 days a week, but don't have as long of a commute as you. My personal suggestion is to see if it might be possible for you to walk the distance of one extra station on your train route. I live in Japan, so the subway stations are about 4-5 minutes apart. If you walk even that extra ten minutes both ways,…

That's pretty much spot on. :) I weigh 190-ish right now, so I'll just keep doing what I'm doing. Thank you very much!

Thanks for the responses guys. I didn't factor in weight differences or any of that. I don't think the person who was using the app was trying to fix the calorie burns or anything... it's the same app, after all. But it's good to know that Endomondo is accurate. I'll stick with it then. If I end up not losing weight, I…

Hello all! I live in Japan and was recently diagnosed with Hashimoto's. As my dad likes to point out, it was like I "moved to Japan and caught a Japanese disease"... however, turns out it was for the best, as I am in Kyoto, which houses one of the foremost clinics on thyroids in the world... so, I'm in good hands and they…

Endomondo synchs, and is pretty accurate guessing what you were doing. C25K is -supposed- to synch, but I haven't been able to get it to work yet... :-/

Me too! I've had the weirdest sleep schedule for days now. Usually I am the type of person who falls asleep at the drop of a hat.. the last three days I have tossed and turned (I actually shoved my computer off my nightstand last night, whoops), and I woke up today feeling soooo "rested" that I thought it was a day later…

I have Hashimoto's hypothyroidism and recently tried a low-carb diet. It was pretty bad... my hair started falling out, I experienced the same blood sugar crash that someone else experienced, etc. My doctor suggested more veggies, less fruit and gluten. Hope you find a balance that works for you!

I'd love to join. I'm trying to lose 50 pounds right now. (25kg, roughly)... My username is tokyoshorty. I've just started my journey, so this is the perfect timing!

Thanks gigglesinthes, Yeah, I was given 1200 calories a day as my base calorie intake on MFP the first time I used it, because I didn't have any time or anyplace to go to exercise. That has since changed, and I am making a goal of 3, 30-minute jogs a week, so that I'll focus more on burning calories than limiting them. The…
