Hi runners. All went well with the small surgery. Have a 4cm incision in my leg, a bit less leg muscle now and have hardly any pain. Only the local anesthetic stopped working once I'd left the hospital and was waiting at the bus stop. As usual. That was pretty much 15 minutes after the surgeon was finished, btw. 🤣 Shame I…

Thanks :) Unfortunately a single item. Had dinner in a hotel room once from this bowl. Went to my work the next day, had dinner around there, returned to hotel, packed stuff, left next morning. Back home I found the bowl, cleaned and all in my suitcase. 😅 I can't even...

About 300gr veg, chicken breast marinated in spices, sambal, yogurt and honey, few tomatoes in oil, and couscous. Served with a big dollop of spiced skyr. Good amount of fibre and 42gr of protein. Rather very low fat if it wasn't for the tomatoes in oil.

I prepare chicken in so many ways: Small pieces fried in a wok/pan, chicken thighs or breast cooked in convection/microwave oven (small cuts on the top help a bit, also for more surface area for marinade), thrown whole breast or thigh, or in pieces into a soup or stew and cooked to bits, chicken mince balls, put chicken…

5lbs per month is not slow.

No idea what's going on. But it's possible that your tracker accidentally tracked steps during the bike workout, and hence you'd be double dipping them. On that note: the calories for your bike workout look extremely exaggerated unless you did a race in the super high wattage range. Thus I'd be careful with this super high…

Don't log the exercise then. Or if you've paired a tracker then unpair it again.

Do something that you enjoy doing and not something that you feel you should be doing. Are you slightly competitive? Try to find something where you can celebrate improvements. Do you enjoy being among others? Maybe a team sport. Enjoy being alone, maybe taking photos, watching animals? Go hiking out of town.

For cooked meals i use normal plastic containers. My freezer space is limited and those take up a minimum of space. Perfect. For non-cooked food items I use small ziplock bags for freezers. Or for several of the same I might portion it, put it in plastic bags and then all together in a ziplock. Not great, because I hate…

Hi there and welcome. I think asking the same question once is sufficient. People have lives too and not always time to check the forum to answer voluntarily. Basically, the calories MFP gives you are based on your current stats and weightloss goal. They include everyday chores but not exercise. That means you're supposed…

Yeah, so in iOS if I am at an empty Breakfast for example I can move my finger right to copy everything directly from the previous day. If I already have food in say Breakfast, and I move the finger left I can delete a single food item.

Yeah, in iOS. There's also dots and then I can copy food from or to a date, and from say dinner to breakfast. But the swiping is super nice to have.

You can also simply swipe right and add the food from the previous day in the app. It also says so on the diary screen. No need to create a meal. Just copy from the previous day.

I never sit in one position for long. Cross legged, one leg on chair, chair otherway around, one leg on table (don't ask). But more seriously, I exercise after work on 4-5 days per week. Gives me plenty of exercise and movement. Plus I live in Europe and walk or cycle to most errands.

what annoys me most are entries per serving or cup. Or worse: some random amount someone thought would be useful for them, but then they shared it with everyone. Like 73gr from a 400gr tin of soup.

The scanner doesn't help though because it pulls up one single database entry that might be as wrong as the first 5 entries when searching by hand. The 6th might then be the right one. Which you'd not get with the scanner.

Yeah, this! I find I can edit some entries, but not others. Has also nothing to do with the green check mark. This basically means I'll make a new entry in the database, basically bloating it up even more, or use an entry that is somewhat similar but not quite.

You could go by breathing and how many steps you make per inhale and exhale. Increase your speed until you need to breathe more often. Or go with speaking. If you can still speak a whole sentence coherently then run faster until your sentences get shorter. This might be something to go by:…

She could do with chicken breast though: 25g of protein per 100gr approximately. So that's about 900gr of chicken breast per day. Leaves a few calories for cooking oil and a few pieces of fruits or veg. 🤢 TO, can you tell us a bit more about your current diet, where this insane number of protein comes from (the farts!) and…

Home cooking! Use lots of spices if you can. Salt enhances flavour, but for some food, citrussy tastes do the same. I always throw a small handful of barberries in tomato based pasta sauces. A bit of lemon juice (ready-made) does wonders in many stews.

Well, it was my phone. I forgot to charge my watch and it didn't have enough juice left for running.

You need to do for your health what works best for you. Forget any fasts if it makes you miserable. On that note, some people with reflux do benefit from more smaller meals across the day instead of eating a lot within a small eating window. Do what works for you.

By looking at what your weight is doing. Weightloss or gain is slow. Thus if you collect data over 4 weeks the world won't end. Eat your calories, eat some exercise calories or whatever method you chose to lose/gain. Then look at the end of the 4 weeks what your weight is doing. Losing faster than expected? Eat more.…
