CICO vs. "clean eating"
Hi all, Quick question which I know has been debated before - Is it more important to focus on CICO or "clean eating" such as cutting out all processed food, grains, sugar etc. I want something sustainable which is why I see CICO as a long term solution, but it seems a lot of the advice I read states the multiple health…

How long to lose the last 5-7 pounds?
I am currently 5'8 and weigh 131 pounds. Is it realistic to think I can lose 1.5 pounds per week for a goal of 6 pounds in a month at my current stats? I know the last bit always seems to be the hardest to lose! :)

If calories in vs. calories out is what matters, why no weight loss?
I am trying to lose my last 5-7 pounds. I weigh all of my food and log absolutely everything! I also wear a fitbit to get a general idea of calories burned. Last week, I was 7,000 calories under maintenance for the week. I eat 1200 calories a day and end up burning about 2100-2300 calories a day. When I weighed in, no…

Fitbit Blaze question : do I still add exercise in MFP? How do I link my fitbit and MFP?
Hi MFP friends, I just bought a fitbit blaze and have a few questions. I linked MFP and my fitbit when I set up my new device. Do I need to do anything else for the two to communicate? Also, do I still log exercise in MFP or will it pull data from my fiber? Thanks! Chelle

Eating before going to bed - after working night shift
Hi all! Quick question - since calories in vs. calories out is what matters, does it matter when I eat my calories? I am a night shift nurse and I work 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. three days a week. I eat a small breakfast (about 350 calories) when I get home from work around 8:00 a.m. Am I stalling any progress by eating…

Met or under my calorie goal for last 10 days - no weight loss!
I'm super frustrated. I have met or been slightly under my calorie goal for the last 10 days. In addition, I've met my fitness goals of cardio, weight training, and pilates during that time. But I've had no weight loss! The scale has not budged and it's making me crazy! I'm 5'8 and my weight has stalled at 131. My goal is…

Completely eliminating refined sugar?
Has anyone completely eliminated refined sugar? I am not talking about sugar from fruit, but sugar from candy, cookies, ice cream, etc. I realize I cannot eat sugar in moderation. When I try to have a little of something, it always turns into me overdoing it. I cannot seem to be satisfied with just a little. Has anyone…
