Im talking SERIOUS exercise. : ) Some people are typing in light housework etc. on their exercise logs....I wouldnt eat THOSE calories back. That is just a persons normal routine. : ) I think you are on the right track!!!!: )
  • I agree with Gojira!!!!! I eat cake at the parties etc....but , one piece.....not very big. If it is a cook out...I just take chicken!!!! I ate 4th of July....and am looking forward to a wedding and eating the cake! Also, we have ahumongous Labor Day wknd family reunion. WE PLAN TO EAT! Instead of trying every desert there…
  • That is great!!! Makes you feel good to finally be able to get in those jeans huh!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • IT keeps me focused! I dont feel like Im dieting at all. Im choosing food that is better for me. I dont miss the chips etc. AT ALL.

  • I learned that dedication and support from others is what has driven me......I never thought I could do this. If it wasnt for mfp.....I would not have been able to do it. Also, logging what I have eaten has taught me exactly what I put in my body. I am now more aware of foods...and apparently had not a clue before. lol…

  • I have been told the same thing. Also been told that eating fruit with certain foods was not good. Supposedly it is best to eat fruit alone , as a snack. ???

  • Since you are going ahead of time....do what I do!

Look up all kinds of things! If you go to to OUTBACK etc.....do the same! It…
