44.6 miles so far. Better than my 3 mi per day goal.

I just ran across this while researching protein powders. I was originally going to buy this, because it's naturally sweetened (stevia, I think), but I couldn't find a price nearly as low as the non-Natural version, so I went with the non-Natural version.…

I upped my protein level and found it difficult to make my numbers, so I decided to use a protein mix. The most cost effective protein powder I found was Optimum Pro Complex. You can find a 4.6lb tub (29 x 60g servings) for around $60 online. At that price, you can get 30g of protein for about $1.10. As far as taste goes,…

"macros" is short for "macronutrients", which means the major nutrients: protein, fat, carbohydrates. When people speak of their "macros", I find they are actually referring to the target levels of macronutrients in their diet.

Don't worry about what they think and do what's best for you. If anyone doesn't respect your decision, maybe the value of their friendship should be reevaluated?

I make a best-guess estimate of the meal based on stuff in the MFP database. If I eat it regularly, I'll make a 'recipe' out of it. I often eat that salad with a piece of grilled chicken breast, so I just pick one from the MFP database that seems to be about right. For example, this place puts very little salt on their…

Nope...not even that day I had 1/3 of my calories from (crappy!) chocolate candies.

Because I feel so much better since I've been paying attention to my diet and eating (what I think is) a healthy diet. I have more energy during the day. I sleep better at night. Sure, I do miss my old breakfast of two meat, egg and cheese biscuits, but it's just not worth the risk of feeling like I did for so long: unwell.

Most recently, the Terrapin Moo Hoo Chocolate Milk Stout. This is a ****ing phenomenal beer. Get it if you can...while you can...as much as you can; it's a seasonal beer. My regular favorite is pretty much any good IPA. So many brewers are doing this style well now that the list of good IPAs is too long.

Is it too late to get in on this?

6th day w/o a cigarette. 2nd full week of eating well...thanks MFP!. Walked 3+ miles and ran a couple of times without my back killing me. Apparently, walking is good for my lower back (muscles).

I'm dieting to manage hypertension. I'm pretty sure my diet used to be 75%+ fat. :-)

Almost everything I used to eat! Nice fluffy, buttery biscuits? no more Big slice of country ham? no more Bacon? no more Burger and fries? no more Brats? no more Late night taco bell runs? no more Bread? very sparingly Pizza? very sparingly Fried ${ANYTHING}? no more Pasta? very sparingly Southern style vegetables? no more…

The less and 25-35% fat recommendation from heart.org seems sensible: * Limit total fat intake to less than 25–35 percent of your total calories each day; * Limit saturated fat intake to less than 7 percent of total daily calories; * Limit trans fat intake to less than 1 percent of total daily calories; * The remaining fat…
