Round 2!
4 years ago I reached my goal weight after 2 years. I had lost 150 pounds on MFP. Now, after a series of life events and falling back into my previous habits I have gained back about 70 pounds.

FitBit didn't synch?
I have had my FitBit Zip for a year and a half now. It has faithfully recorded my steps and synched it to MFP daily ever since. Last night I went to synch it and it did not synch.

So, not necessarily low calorie, but I am abandoning the fat & sodium laden veggie casseroles and replacing them with other choices that are a bit better. Still dressed up for a holiday meal, but a little…

New to Group - Looking for advice!
Hello! I have lost 108 pounds on CICO since August 2014 and was doing quite well. However, my weight loss has slowed down to a crawl and I think I need a change. I have done a lower carb type of diet in the past (South Beach) and did well on that. I do know that SBD is not strictly low carb, but more of a good carb diet,…

Subtracting and adding calories?
I just synched my FitBit midday, after a workout and it subtracted 70 calories from my daily total. In the past I have waited until the end of the day to synch and it usually adds calories to my total. What has changed?
