  • One of the best pieces of diet advice I ever got years ago when I first lost weight [then kept it off, now I'm trying to lose an additional 10 lbs or so]... is DO NOT try to lose it too fast, it's a lifestyle change. But more importantly, if you have a decent bit of weight to lose, you want to keep some "tricks" in your…

  • Which site is that? Just curious :) I love reading about stuff. I have a few friends that are REALLY strict paleo... hearing about it from them is where I first hear about it. I've always been the type to ease into things... I'd say I'm fairly strict now, and having great results, and as I adjust more will probably get…

  • I skimmed but didn't read the whole thread so sorry if this has been mentioned... But, you should google the "primal blueprint" or go to marksdailyapple.com. Eating this way is actually quite balanced, and isn't as strict with carbs as 5%. I'm getting plenty of carbs but just from mostly veggies or stuff like that. I'm…

  • In on this! I've been slacking a bit the last week, not too bad, but I know if I want to get that last ten off I'm gonna have to work much harder. At least with my workouts. Gonna do hot power yoga sat & sunday and a long run with the bestie sunday evening :)

  • There's an awesome app on the iphone that links up to your log directly :) I love love love it. *shamelessly promoting iphone* edit: That's actually how I found MFP, I was looking for an app to log my food/calories and MFP had pretty good ratings for a free app, and here I am!

  • Just stick with it :) You'll figure something out that works for you. It'll be really hard at first, but eventually, when you settle into even your new hectic routine, you'll be able to get a schedule going. That sounded very similar to my schedule when I was in college and lost some weight. Up by 7 am, classes, worked…

  • That's where I'm at, and the scale doesn't seem to be budging. I've maybe lost a lb in a bit over a month - month and a half, and I've been tracking & working like crazy. Now it's just stuck there. I had lost some weight awhile ago, maintained that weight for 2 almost 3 years since I needed a "break" and decided to give…

  • Oooh tyty :) Now - quick question, since I decided to do "custom," will MFP still automatically adjust my calorie goals/etc. as I lose weight? Or is that going to have to be manual as well?

  • How do you change this in MFP? I've been wondering how to do so :)

  • I had the same problem with Nike stuff I've used.. including the stuff I used to sync with my ipod. FWIW.. I started using an app called "runmeter" for my iphone [I'm assuming ipod touch would be able to use the same apps?], it costs $4.99, but is amazing. Tracks your run/walk/etc. time, distance, pace, maps your running…
