Rant About Thermogenesis
Some ladies at work have been going on this hardcore dieting and health kick. It's awesome, I'm happy for everyone. They've watched me measure my food and eat well on and off for the better part of a year, but since December I've been 93 days strong on MFP, logging, exercising, weighing my food, etc. They see me with my…

Injured Coccyx... Workouts?
Hurt my coccyx going down a slide at a playground and landing flat on my butt! Nothing better to remind me I'm an adult now, amirite? I'd hate to stay so inactive while I heal. I can walk with minimal discomfort, but sitting/finding a good position to lay flat is hell. I've already made good friends with a seating…

Oh, hai!
Hello! I'm Stephanie. :smiley: This ain't my first rodeo with MFP, but boy do I hope it's my last. I'm one of those people that know a fair amount about healthy, sustainable weight loss but I haven't been applying it to my daily life. Time to fix that! I would like to lose 75 pounds. I love the idea of the added support…

I graduated C25K!

I had always wanted to be a runner. I started and stopped the C25K (Couch To 5K) app numerous times. In…

Quick Question- Deficit?
If FitBit gives me my estimated calorie burn, do I eat back all that it gives me? Does it automatically give you a deficit, or do you have to consciously eat less than it gives you to be in a deficit? I have not gotten my FitBit yet, but it's on its way and I want to be sure I do it right.

Silly Lifting Questions
I've started NROL4W this week and so far, it's a good workout. I feel like I'm challenging myself to do that one last rep and pushing myself to muscle failure mode, but I guess I'm kinda curious if what I'm doing is okay. Example, I'll do the dumbbell shoulder press and I kill myself to get through the fifteen reps using…

People and Their Dogs (rant)
I was outside running on Saturday and some girl walked up to me. She warned me that she had dogs that liked to attack people and that I might not want to walk by anymore for my own safety. I shook my head, said, "Okay," and kept going. She's just warning me for my own safety and I shouldn't be so upset about it, right? The…

New...ish.
Hey there. I'm Stephanie and I have had a serious problem with my relationship with food. I gave MFP a shot years ago and now I'm back to really push myself to drop this weight that just keeps piling on. I would love some friends to encourage and to push me in return. :)
