  • Just sold my iphone and upgraded to a samsung galaxy s2 android phone. The myfitnespal app for android is realy bad and buggy compared to the iphone app. Dam i should of waited for iphone 5 to come.
  • Feel free to add me :)
  • Hi mate..... Dude if that photos a current 1 i dont think you have a weight problem mate you look buff
  • Yes in Australia we have become a nation of fatties. But we havent always been that way. Most of the generations before mine percentage wise were a lot thiner. My parents were thin and i never saw them counting calories. Procesed foods is the killer so your above facts ring true to me and make sense.
  • I agree. To me i cant see a reason for a day off. If you want a little more of mums cooking factor it in. Hell if you have a craving for kfc factor that in. To me its more important to stick with it when your away. Even if you dont have the iphone app or internet access the more knowledge you have about foods the better…
  • Im not ready to have a planed day off. I dont realy look at this calorie counting as a diet. I look at it as being aware what i put in my mouth and a lifestyle change. I have learnt so much about foods and portion sizes. For me to just stop even for a day wouldnt make sense for me but we are all different.
  • Night times are the worst. In Australia thats when all the junk food adds come on tv aswell. Im sure its the same in usa. I try to keep busy . I also try to plan my day and have about 200 cals left after tea. I then will have that 200 cals around 9pm and lots of water. This seems to help me as i was a seriouse night time…
  • Everyone has a bad day at times. I personly think loosing weight is mentaly tough. It takes something to make your brain snap and say thats it. For me it was diabetes that gave me a big kick up the behind. Your state of mind i believe to be the most important factor in loosing weight and getting back on the band wagon so…
  • LOL Nice :)
  • Well done mate amazing stuff
  • Give him time. Hopefully he will understand the health benifits outway anything else. Im 37 and was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in feb this year. So many people getting ill these days at a young age from weight related issues. Its a real problem in australia.
  • I thought I’d also add without being racist as I am a mixed bag of English French and Portuguese myself from way back. Some Europeans in general get offended if you don’t eat what they dish lol. They also get offended if you don’t eat seconds and thirds. This doesn’t help lol.
  • LOL yeah that sucks. I see your an 80s metal head Im pissed i missed out on tickets to metallica on ther oz tour.
  • In not sure how accurate MFP is on sugar content. I always look at the sugar content on the packaging itself its amazing how some foods are loaded with sugar. And its foods you would never think aswell. I allways read the packaging to be sure.
  • Soz it posted twice for some reason
  • 200 grams of pasta and suace total 850 cals for dinner. I cant go without it. Thats what i have for dinner every night. ;)
  • Thanks guys for the info. I realy like the idea of earning extra callories so to speak. My treadmill has a callories counter but im not sure how acurate it is. I think it just goes by time as its fairly old and doesnt have an inbuilt heart rate monitor. But yes I think time has come to bite the bullet and take ownership…
  • Welcome MFP is great so far ive found it amazing im sure you will 2 :)
  • In theory True in my reality a struggle within :)
  • South Australia
