  • Mine's been at zero steps all day so...yeah it's systemic.
  • Recently I've been omitting the banana and making smoothies with 8 oz almond milk, a quarter avocado, 1-2 tbsp raw cacao powder, sometimes protein powder, 1 tbsp ground flax seed, and a quarter cup of blueberries, plus a little water to adjust the thickness. If I need a little sweetness, I use stevia or 1 tbsp of pure…
  • My problem was steps, not meals.
  • Yay it's fixed! I hadn't unlinked from the Fitbit side. Once I did that piece and reconnected from both sides, everything started working again!
  • Thanks for this thread. I've had to disconnect and reconnect my Fitbit each day for 3 days. Been using Fitbit/MFP together over a year. Hope they get it fixed soon!
  • I actually eat more Primal than Paleo - check out Mark's Daily Apple site - that's where I find most of my inspiration. Good luck, and feel free to add me as a MFP Pal!

I'd done this under a Naturopath's supervision. My Cortisol was high, DHEA was low, so I was on low-level DHEA supplements.. I also modified my…
  • Yay, YOU!!!!!! Fantastic! I hope to join you there in a few more months!
  • Hi Sarah! Welcome! I'm new to MFP, though I've been using a FitBit for awhile. Tracking my activity and food has really helped me be honest with myself. Good luck to you! The reason I'm writing to you is that we have a few similar symptoms (autoimmune) and wanted to share what I've discovered and has broken my weight-loss…
