Fiber supplements
Does anyone use fiber supplements? I was really trying to get a lot of fiber earlier on, but I got sick of avocado and chia seeds. Now I don't think I get near enough fiber.

I decide, after going through about 10 online menus to go to TGI Fridays ( there are more of these in Oslio than Mc Donalds, believe it or not... ) I find an Ahi Tuna and avocado salad. It lists the ingredients ... Tuna, avo, cherry tomatoes, spinach, romaine, garlic aioli.…

Fitbit Charge HR step inaccuracy
I am sure this has come up before, but I couldn't find the thread. Has anyone else had a problem with their Charge HR being wildly inaccurate? I have done all kinds of adjustments (dominant, non-dominant hand, stride length) and it is still pretty off. 20% off is ok, but more than that is kind of unacceptable. MFP is…

Pain pain pain... A reminder of why I am doing this...
I don't always mind being fat. I have lots of reasons why being fat is a plus. But going through the day I had today, and the pain I have right now, it's a good reminder to stay on track. I have osteoarthritis in both knees. The right knee is getting better with physio, the left knee is limited improvement and will…
