Nice to meet you! I am going to steal your weekly layout. I hope it goes well for us both!

I've not done exercise yet but I've never seen MFP give calories before I've done anything. Literally just wokeup, went downstairs to brew tea and checked the app to see I have had 66 calories deducted from my daily allowance

I am not an iphone user and wouldn't be interested in something as complex as an Apple watch. The problem is, for me at least, those devices are very focused on what I would consider special feature: text messages, music control, NFC payments, etc. I just want something that ill accurately count my steps, monitor my heart…

It is called moderation. These really aren't that bad depending on the context. If the kids have good nutrition at home on a regular basis and can have cookies for snack, is that bad? Even if the kids eat Lucky Charms for breakfast , have these snacks (many of which aren't that bad, sorry), and then have a pre-prepaired…

I love the help I am getting. I was afraid I was going to be yelled at for not understanding what I am doing. Again, I truly appreciate everything. I cannot eat during my second job, which is why I am skipping lunch. I have to work more than 4 hours to get a food break and they don't care that I work 3 hours beforehand. My…

Wow! I am getting a lot of useful help! Thank you so much, guys. First, I'd like to thank Brandolin11 for that excellent math. I had tried to do a BMR once but I did not calculate everything well and it was based on this "lose 20lbs in one month" nonsense I was desperate enough to try. I will try to remove using as much…

I understand that weight loss is all about calories but its just not that simple. There is to it than calorie in, calories out. I have logged my meals down to each of the gummy vitamins I consumed daily (15 calories for two) and increased my activity and still-- NOTHING. My 10,000 step or more daily walks during good…

Thank you! I did read that link, actually, before joining this site. It is part of why I wanted to join. Although I find it useful, I don't think I quite know what to do still. I see everyone around me eating what they want when they want to and not exercising like I do but remaining at the weight I want to be at. I've…
