  • I have only been on MFP for 5 weeks and I started off walking even slower, maybe 2.0 - 2.5 and now I am at 3.0 - 3.5 and longer walks. I remember in the short time that I was winded and worn out and sitting on ice / heat on my back for the first week or so. Now it seems I am doing better, having more energy and after I am…

  • I just got a fitbit this week. It tracks activity and sleep and it interfaces with MFP to record calories and water intake, etc. I have just had it a few days, but several of MFP love theirs. There is a fitbit app for your phone too so when you open the app, it syncs with the fitbit. So far so good as an option.
    in how do you track your workout? Comment by ROBINCAN2 February 2014
  • Great story! Thanks for sharing with us and of course the pics! You look terrific! Keep it up as it is paying off tremendously!
