Best tasting protein powder?
I don't care how much it costs all I'm looking for is a vanilla that doesn't taste like crap, that is relatively high protein and reasonably low calorie. No dietary restrictions so any kind is ok.

It is time to change my goals
My fitness journey started 4 years ago when I had an emotional eating spiral due to a miscarriage.

Injury=eat at maintenance?
So I have only been back on the weight loss train for about 2 weeks now. I tweaked my back pretty bad early last week, no idea how but I'm dying. Should I eat closer to or at maintenance for a few days to see if it will help me bounce back faster? I know food is fuel and something is telling me I'm not getting enough to…

Just had my 3rd and final baby!
My sweet baby boy is 12 days old and I'm ready to start using mfp again. I'm not getting to serious about losing weight and fitness yet as I'm still recovering from a c section and won't really be able to work out for a few more weeks but I'm ready to start tracking my food so I don't completely lose control. I'm not just…
