I like gadgets, including my fitbit. My fitbit has been one of my most helpful gadgets, but I don't need to use it every day. If it wasn't for my fitbit, I wouldn't have joined mfp 2 years ago and started tracking calories. It has helped me to increase my NEAT on days when I am not feeling well, or I know I'll be too busy…

Darn I broke my ticker again! Well, here's what I did this month: August 2: 3.66km August 4: 3.9km August 9: 3.85 km August 10: 3.93km August 12: 2 km August 14: 3.25km August 15: 4 km August 17: 4 km My goal is 30 km for August. Nearly there! I like this challenge.

Good for you for starting anyway! I lost twenty pounds without much exercise. Calculate your TDEE and eat under it. For me, because I was injured and mainly only focusing on me anyway, it wasn't hard to make my eating a priority. Don't be upset with yourself you have a day where you go over. If can wheel that chair…

Double this^ I don't feel this way any more, but back when I did I had really focus on my priorities. I would put not eating the pulled pork sandwich as number one. If it meant that I had to go to bed, get in the hot tub, go for a walk, have a shower, or anything else that was not condusive with eating the pulled pork…

:noway:

Bump, because I started talking about snogging and knickers. Any reluctant CFL fans out there?

They can be called pants or knickers. Sometimes there are two words for the same thing.

It means kissing. Making out girl-style:-)

Also, learn how to make seitan, and be prepared to cook and prep. at least once a week, or buy meat replacement products.

If you haven't discovered red star nutritional yeast flakes yet, I recommend you try it! Try with popcorn, rice, in casseroles, as a condiment. I love it and it's a source of protein and fortified with b12.

Perhaps you need to look at what you are eating? You may need to ajust your calorie goal or look at how carefully you've been adhering to you eating plan lately.

This^. I've notice the same thing but it has no bearing whatsoever on long term weight loss.

I think the op is right. We are uncomfortable admitting it, but there is descrimination; people are treated differently depending on how they look. My 20-year-old daughter and her friends frequently get into nightclubs without paying a cover charge. One of her friends is overweight. A few weeks ago they all met at a club,…

That is a great article. I think change will occur when people become more comfortable talking and articles like this help. Mental Health cuts in funding are easy to slip by the public because there is minimal advocacy, and most people are uncomfortable with the issues even when there is an attempt to educate. It would be…

:( I hope you feel better soon OP. Protein is important. You may have missed out on some other nutrients and vitamins also.

:( I thought my advice was good. :kicksrock:

I agree with he last thing you said OP. It was a just-keep-your-mouth-shut-and-support-him kind of moment.

Or is this fantasy?

I'm not a guy, but I'm pretty sure this is not an opinion that men generally share.

Wine. I mean corn flakes.:drinker:

To address the original question: I can go a year without eating meat, then have some steak and feel fine. I don't feel guilt and I don't have tummy ache. I don't think I'm a hypocrite either, nor do I care what anyone else thinks.

I have two children, and I'm proud of my abs. Is that ok to say????

Yes op! Just last week my body mistook calories for a shampoo commercial. Before you knew it, every time I ate something with calories in it, my hair was silky smooth and I was compelled to constantly do that hair flip thing. I hope this answers your question. :flowerforyou:

Bwahahaha! Be afraid. Be very afraid!!:)

My daughter just made me eat score bar bites. I said, "Why did you buy them in the first place." She said, "They were just there, calling my name." I said, "Where were they? At the check- out?" She said, "Yeah, you know. That place where they trick you." OP. You know. There is sabotage everywhere.

That sounds very unpleasant! I found that I was able to reach my goal weight, and I've kept off the weight for nearly two years now, by eating at a slight calorie deficit. I choose the foods I enjoy eating, so it's a rather sustainable plan! I don't exercise as much as you do, but I need carbs to do my best when I do…

Once I had a good habit, I just stopped. To get into the habit in the first place, I used to go and have a bath or read in bed to stop myself from eating. This worked because I don't eat in bed:)

It IS important to have eight hugs a day though. Everybody should have a hug app. on their smart phone to make sure they don't suffer from oxytocin withdrawal. Now go hug someone:). :drinker:
