Zip broke/Looking for a similar alternative
I also included this in the Fit Bit User Forum but posting here as well, JIC. TIA! My Zip broke and I have discovered they have been discontinued. I found some on Amazon but not willing to pay the price they are being sold at (I bought mine for $50, the cheapest I can find is $89). So I am looking at alternatives. I'm…

Zip broke/Looking for a similar alternative
My Zip broke and I have discovered they have been discontinued. I found some on Amazon but not willing to pay the price they are being sold at (I bought mine for $50, the cheapest I can find is $89). So I am looking at alternatives. I'm uncomfortable w/ the thought of having to wear something on my wrist; I loved the way I…

Give Up Dairy?!
I follow Sarah Bowmar on IG. She recently posted how awesome it was not to have give up bread in order to meet her goals. I just left her comment saying how I had lost weight w/out giving anything up/moderation...basically agreeing w/ her. She responded back w/: "It's not about moderation. It's about your HEALTH. If you…

Now That I Can Eat...Always Hungry
Basically what my title says.... I'm at maintenance, new to it...just started a few days ago, and now that I can eat more I'm always hungry! The sad thing is my maintenance calories aren't much more than my deficit calories since I'm only 5'1" 107ish pounds. (deficit = 1200 maintenance= 1370 per MFP) Anyway...anyone else…

Water Weight Fluctuations - The Struggle is Real!

Weighed myself (after my morning pee, naked, before my…

I Think I Need to Eat More...Expert Advice Needed
MFP has me at 1200 a day. I can survive on that... technically, I have been doing it for the past 42 days, actually surviving on less, but some days it sucks! Not because eating 1200 isn't enough... It sucks because despite the fact that I do weigh and measure everything and I do exercise, I am so paranoid about…

Resistance Training Until I Can Lift?
My husband is trying to get me into weight training/strength training but I am very weak. I enjoy working out w/ him and would love to be able to participate better than I currently am, but until I am stronger I was thinking of resistance band training. I do cardio but I've read enough to know that I need some sort of…

Better to Go by Ounces or Grams
I just measured out a serving of soup. The label says a serving is 1 cup (so 8oz) with 250g written inside parentheses next to it. Using my scale I measured out 8oz and then out of curiosity changed the measurement on the scale to grams and it only shows 225 g. Responses?

Small Victory #2.. Water!
I use to hate water... I was lucky if I got 1 cup in a week (outside of water that exists in the foods I ate). I finally got use to 1 cup a day...but it took me ALL DAY to drink it. When I started MFP 8 days ago, I forced myself to at least drink my 1liter bottle every day (4 cups)...again it took me ALL DAY to do it,…

Healthier Coffee Thanks to MFP
Until I started logging I had no idea how many calories were in my morning coffee! Thanks to MFP...I have now reduced my coffee from 165 to 72 calories! It took some tweaking to get it there. I started at 165 and then went on to: 103, 100, 88, and now finally 72 calories! I'm so excited! I admit, I can taste the…
