Headed to police academy in April!
Been doing this for 2 months. I'm not terribly overweight just doing it to get in better shape. Lost 10 pounds this month, 20 more to go for my goal. What works for you?

Just to be perfectly clear
My calories are declining as I am losing weight. But, I wanted to make sure of one thing. My calories are now at 2000. I know that a deficit of 500 calories a day x the entire week will give me weight loss. So, my question is, do I need to only eat 1500 of those 2000 or is the 2000 already taking into account the 500…

Not sure what the problem is
First month I dropped 10 pounds. I weigh all my foods, I'm very diligent with being as precise as possible with the calorie count, and this week I only lost .6 of a pound. My weigh in day is usually Friday mornings before work. I weighed today after work and expected to see at least two pounds gone. My calorie level is at…

Location services not working
My iPhone does not show an option to turn on location services for MFP app. I would love for it to show up so that I can use the new restaurant location services feature. My wife's phone has no problem. What's the deal?

How long?
So I have been on MFP for around 80 days. I've lost 16 pounds, except the last two weeks I didn't lose anything. So I incorporated 30 mins of jogging, (usually 1.5 miles in 17 mins, and an additional half mile inclined walking afterward) and some 10 minute ab workout that my Fitbit prompts me to do. I am diligent in doing…

What gives?
I literally worked my butt off this week. Over 300 minutes active, I did not eat back any of my calories I was given, I stuck with my 1900 a day. My macros weren't always perfect but close. And I only lost 1.5 pounds. Now I know that 1 pound is the goal, but the first few weeks I lost 2-3 and did no exercise. I was…

How to figure up calories for local pizza place
They don't have nutritional info or at least they were too lazy to give it to me. It's a 12 inch thin crust pepperoni and it's square cut.

Exercises to get rid of belly fat
I've read that lifting is a good option. But I'm not interested in making my arms 28 inches round, what kind of lifting or other exercises will be the most effective for belly fat?

All ingrodoents are 1 Tablespoon besides for the paprika and pineapple chunks. How do I calculate the calories? I know what one breast is, I know the…

My Fitbit doesn't add calories?
I recently started using a Fitbit today. I synced it with MFP on my phone for a more accurate step count and calorie burn. Because I don't have my phone on me 24/7 unlike most ppl it comes in handy to count steps. I rarely go over the 1900 calories it gives me, I only get close to it. However I like seeing the earned…

Diet Soda
Does anyone drink diet soda while following MFP and still lose the weight? It's zero calories (or close to it) so it shouldn't affect weight loss...right? I do not eat or crave sweet foods so it has no effect on making me eat any of that.

Help with MFP and work schedule
So, I work 12-13 hour shifts. 4 days one week, 3 days the next. I'm currently on night shift. So I sleep from 730 in the morning to around 3 in the evening. But MFP doesn't really take into consideration when my day actually begins and when I should be asleep and not eating. Now here's the tricky part. On my off days I…
