Question on upping calories
So I've been on maintenance a couple weeks now and have upped my calories by 100 (went from 1200 to 1300). I am maintaining my weight so does this mean I need to stop upping my daily calories? I am only up to 1300 calories now and MFP said that I can have something like 1550 a day. Should I be trying to slowly increase…

Garmin Vivofit and HRM
I just got the Garmin Heart Rate Moniter to go along with my vivofit as I have become very interested in challenging myself with my speeds, distance, etc. with my walking and cycling. Do you wear your HRM just while working out or on you daily while you go about your day? Also, I added it on Garmin connect as a cardio…

Help with recipe builder, how the heck do I...
So Hubby is making his famous pot roast in the crock pot for dinner tonight. I know what is going into it but how do I build it on the recipe builder so I know how many servings there are and how many calories in a serving? Can I weigh it all after it's cooked?

The last few pounds
So I am currently set up with 1 lb. a week weight loss on here and I have 6 more to go before I reach my goal. Should I be adjusting anything right now like my total calories or should I leave them the same and adjust the rate of loss from something like 1 lb to a 1/2 pound? Should I just keep doing what I am doing now?…

Help with Digtial Food scale.
So I just got a new food scale. It's really great but I am getting confused as to cups vs. grams. Lets take cereal of example, on the back of the package it says a serving size is 1 cup (17g). I wanted to have 2 servings. So being curious, I put 34 grams on the food scale and then took that and poured it into a measuring…

Yet another one of those posts
The more I read the more confused I get about how many calories I should be eating! Can someone help me out? I did the guided set up through MFP and entered my info and it was suggested that I eat 1200 calories. I've been doing that and I did loose some weight but I am at my second plateau now. To be honest, I am not even…

Looking for friends for motivation!
Hi, I've signed up here about 8 months ago but didn't start logging until July or so. I'm in my mid 40's, have lost 46 lbs since last December and have another 20 to go before I reach my goal. I am recovering from back surgery so my exercise is pretty limited to walking at the moment but eventually would love to get into a…

Acid Reflux and Prilosec questions.
My Dr. recently put me on prescription Prilosec due to waking up with reflux pain in the middle of the night. I've lost 44 lbs since December so I would have thought that the weight loss would have helped me so I am not sure why this is happening now. In any event I was wondering who else is on this med and is it helping?…
