  • Mine's been at zero steps all day so...yeah it's systemic.
    in Fitbit steps not syncing to MFP Comment by NikkiAnamCara April 2016
  • 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've discovered that, for myself, it's not as much the volume of carbs (although I eat Primal 50% fat, 25% carbs 25% protein) it's the TYPE of carbs that make the difference. Starchy carbs slow/stop the weight loss for me. Green/orange/red veggie carbs? No problem.

  • I think we mostly agree that the names, Paleo and Primal leaves a lot to be desired. "Whole Foods Diet" sounds like a grocery store commercial. Real Food takes too much explaining to people who think a Taco Bell Grande is real food. I'm eating like my family ate before "better living through chemistry" became the norm.…

  • I'm a little late to the party of this discussion, but I'm also a relatively new Paleo/Primal. Prior to starting this eating plan, I'd lost 52 pounds over the course of 8 months. 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…

  • 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…
