LF friends with similar goals
Hi there, I’m not looking for accountability partner, but rather people who are active on MFP so that I can get motivated and inspired by their news feed. I’d love to connect with people who are similar to me: in their 40’s with 10-15lb to go, who keep food logs (and do their best to eat healthy), try to exercise regularly…

At home exercise DVDs for busy moms?
What are some of the best (or favourite) at home exercise videos (30-60 minutes) for a busy, working mom? I've done Jillian Michaels 6 week six-pack and 30 day shred. Liked both, and looking for something similar, but from a different trainer to change it up. TIA :)

Moving towards primal way of eating...
I know that the best way to change your way of eating is to get rid of all the foods you don't want to eat from your pantry and fridge and replace it with the healthy options. So I did it this weekend. The problem is, that I hate throwing out food. And looking at all the foods that I was supposed to get rid of simply…

To breakfast or not to breakfast?
My work schedule has changed and I have to go in a little earlier than before. My breakfast would be at 7:00am, lunch at 11:00am and dinner around 4:00pm. But I will have an opportunity to eat around 9:15am if I need to and then at 2:15. My schedule is very rigid. I was thinking about having my morning coffee and a piece…

Chocolate
I love a piece and chocolate every once a while and so do my kids. My issue is with the amount of chocolate that is accumulating in my house as a result of gifts from grandparents and other family members. It's way too much for us to eat it and in addition, having it home while trying to install good eating habits in my…

Measuring body fat - what to trust?
I have tried a few different "gizmos" to check my body fat and I get somewhat different results. So I just wanted to ask - which one would be the most accurate? which one would you trust? Here are some of them: iHealth scale - 22.2% calipers (my husband did it for me, as he knows how to use them well) - 16% the scale they…

wearing fitbit face down
I just got Charge HR and I'm trying to figure things out. Would love a little help from you guys... Whenever I wear a watch, I always wear it with the face inside of my wrist and the clasp on the top. I know that FitBit charge HR is supposed to be work with the face up and clasp down. Would it work accurately if I wore it…

Tea anyone?
Hi, I'm new to MFP and logging my food and I have a quick question. Do you log your tea as snack or as water? I drink lots of fruit teas that are 0 cal, no sugar or any sweeteners. I've been logging them as snacks, but they are kind of like coloured / flavoured water :) ...
