Goal weight, still squishy. Help with new plan?
Okay, so, I am pretty much at my goal weight and in the 50 or so days I did it in (didn't have to come down much) I have become a cardio nut. I am, however, still a little too squishy in some spots and I'd like a bit more muscle so I appear a bit more fit. There are pictures on my profile, by the way. The last one is the…

Does drinking water make you feel hungry or full?
I've been reading a lot of advice on here to drink a lot of water when you feel hungry to make the feeling go away, so I started wondering if there is anyone like me: if I drink water, my appetite spikes. It's like my stomach thinks: 'Ha! you ain't fooling me! Now fill me with food!'. So, drinking water: does it make you…

Ladies and HRMs

I manage my intollerances very well, but sometimes it's nice to have people with the same dietary restrictions…

Discrepancy between upping activity level and logging activity?
Hello everyone, I'm still fairly new to MFP and I have question--perhaps a slightly odd one? I basically live a sedentary lifestyle according to MFP, as I have a desk job, but because I go out of my way to work standing or behind a bike desk and I take the bike over the car whenever I can, I end up probably closer to…

Looking for high calorie foods that don't feel like a waste of exersize
Hello everyone, I am new to the forum (and MFP in general) and I am looking for some advice. Because I can't eat grains (terrible intollerance), I don't like sauses and oils, and dislike meat, I have trouble eating more than 1200 to ~1400 calories a day (but don't get too hung up on those numbers, I might be logging a few…
