What a bummer, some of those blogs were so inspirational for me. I had stepped away for awhile and did not see any of the warnings and couldn't find my faves when i came back. I really hate the MFP blog. it just seems like a magazine ad and not personal at all.

I have been asking for his FOR YEARS. I also wish I could sort my recipes into folders. I know I can now do it on my app, but I use the desktop just about as much, and when I 'm working on a recipe I usually do it on the desktop

It’s super frustrating I can’t see if the serving size is 1 ounce or cup or whatever without clicking on it. Now when I search food I get my serving size entered and then to go back to my diary I have to cancel out of the search?? Am I missing something?

This is hands down the best post about Keto I've seen. THANK YOU! I am NOT a supporter of the Keto diet as a weight loss tool. People think its a magic diet, but unless you have a medical condition and HAVE to eat this way for the rest of your life, it is not sustainable. It just isn't and it is exhausting having to listen…

I find it at Safeway here, but I'm in Alaska so that might not be any help. Chilly cow is hands down the best light ice cream. I love Umpqua fat free frozen yogurt though, it is better than most regular ice creams.

My suggestion is to get professional help. Reach out to someone that you can talk to in person. Ask your physician for a recommendation for a therapist. This forum isn't going to give you relationship answers, they will support you in meal planning and encouragement to become healthy, but it appears you need more than…

Even with the prepackaged salads that total seems cheap to me for what you got. I spend 200+ per week on groceries.. I get pretty excited when raspberries are $5 per container. I think ultimately food costs depend on where you live. I'm in Alaska so there is a shipping cost added to everything. We don't have fresh farmers…

Skinnytaste.com is fantastic. the turkey pumpkin chili is amazing.

I'm 51 with 55 to lose. Currently I'm at 200 and 5'4". I enjoy being outside in the summer but struggle to get outside more in the winter. I live in Alaska and we have had really wacky weather the past few years. less actual snow and more rain and Ice. We are buried this year :neutral: I lost 50 pounds about 15 years ago…

Home. I have a 30 minute drive to the nearest gym. This means getting up at 330-4 to be able to get there, work out, drive back out to my house and be a t work by 7. I can get up at 430 and have a cup of coffee and go to the basement in my jammies and bed head and no one else can see me. I dedicated a 10 x 30 space in the…

My husband an myself spend right at 700-800 per month here in Alaska. I shop sales and buy bulk when I can (Costco is three hours away). Our menu every week is based on what is cheap. We only eat out about once a month. When I can I shop at the farmers markets, but they can be pretty spendy.

Well I'm back after a few weeks away. I'm still logging, still holding steady on my weight (whew, I was worried about being on vacation). Time to change things up and kick start the loss again. I went to Boise for a week to watch my daughter compete in a body building competition (she is my inspiration). She did well, 1st…

I used to have someone that did that to me every morning when I was a manager at a Home Depot. One morning I was done lol. I flat out told him until I have my apron on don’t talk to me. Lol. From them on he brought me coffee and waited until I’d been in for at least 5 minutes. But it sure can be a rough start to a day to…

Good Morining! I had a long weekend of painting cabinets and staining shelves. we are in the third year of a "down to the studs" remodel and I'm ready to be done. I am glad that it's the basement I'm working on which is my craft room/canning kitchen/gym. If it would only finish itself. I live in Alaska, so flowers have not…

I love my scales. I bought a new one to replace my old one, but ended up putting one on each side of my kitchen. lol. no excuses to not weigh. at. all. I remember thinking I was doing so good with my measurements, until I started weighing. What a wake up call.

Love this group, I don't know how I haven't seen it until today! After many, many, many attempts I think my head is finally in this game. Getting off my behind has been the best thing for menopause, sore knees, and my energy level. :smiley:

You will fluctuate. Weight loss is not linear, it won't just go down, you will see up and down. I go up 2-4pounds than I'll drop it. Weigh at the same time of the day, I do in the morning before my shower in a t-shirt. Drink lots of water, log accurately, and give it time. I've lost 20 pounds in 4 months and it has been up…

~Slimfast- ugh I Choked these down ~chewing gum diet- one of my friends in school told me to only chew gum all day and then just eat dinner. I did for a week and SURPRISE! lost weight, but then I wasn't really eating either. ~Richard Simmons- loved this, but I really didn't understand how weight loss really worked, so I…

I use the Full Fitness app on my phone. you can select the body part, then what kind of equipment you want to use.

I was told I was leaning towards fatty liver (still not clear on that one, guess I should ask) . Not sure what to do about it. I am also in Alaska! I'm in the Kenai area.

If you want it to be accurate log each topping separate. So many of the entries in the database are user created that you really don't know what someone else put on their taco salad. If you are eating out some places have nutritional information.
