  • Day / Weight / Comment 08/01 - 146.8 I seem to have a very special ability to get a nice low weight on the first day of a round, so that it's hard to compare back to at the end! ;) But I jest, I'm not complaining about any loss.

  • The only things I’ve really cut out are foods that are advertised as “diet” foods: 100 calorie snack packs/bars, things like that. If I want a sweet treat, I’d prefer to just eat 2 real Oreos and put the bag away. If I need a filling snack, I go for something healthier like whole fruit or nuts. The low-cal options just…

  • I do my very best (especially for a restart) when I plan out my whole week and pre-log most things. I don't keep that up long term, but for early on it takes out a lot of guesswork and gets me in the habit. And I try to keep things simple. I have the same shake for breakfast every workday. I meal prep my lunches and…

  • The app does have a way to add exercise calories for breastfeeding. I think I've heard 300 cals/day as an average, but of course that varies person to person. But I'd agree with everyone else and give yourself a little more time without restricting, just to make sure your supply is established. I don't know your life or…

  • And I do something similar to @vim_n_vigor, with averaging the prediction, but I do it weekly in an excel graph. I calculate that 5-week prediction each day, get a range for min to max for each week, and post it on the graph at 5 weeks from today. My actual weight loss are the blue points, the shaded purple are the…
    in In 5 weeks you will weigh... Comment by geauxtigerlily July 2019
  • When you went back to look, was that number already there? Or did you have to click "complete this entry" again? I think I've looked at this before, and if you have to recalculate, IIRC MFP uses your current weight and that day's calorie deficit, even if you're looking at food diary data from 5 weeks ago. (Just went back…

  • I'm in and very excited for Round 85! The last two rounds have been busy for me, but I don't have a lot of other activities going on for the next 10 days, so I want to step everything up a little for this round.

  • I do! I've been at a kickboxing gym for 6 years now, and I have no goals to be a fighter but love my classes. I'm never bored, always working on improving my technique, and it's a killer full body workout. My experience is that bag work is important, but a good training program should get you in the ring for drills and…
