K Bar Chocolate
Have you guys tried it? which one is best? I've had the strawberry one, but I found the chocolate too overpowering to even taste the pink stuff!

Want to drink more water/peeing all the time
I want to drink as much water as possible, but when I do a lot of walking, there aren't a lot of public toliets available. Sometimes I go out for two hours at a time and if I'm drinking a lot, I may need to pee 3 or 4 times. I also don't want to have to pee during my personal training sessions, which go for up to an hour.…

Whats the difference between spaghetti bolognaise and spaghetti and meatballs?
Like could you technically use the same ingredients? We don't tend to eat spaghetti and meatballs much here. As far as I can tell, the meat is rolled into balls and separated from the pasta (tomato) sauce. Are there any other differences?
-
What kinds of exercises/activites will help me with endurance for running?
I am about to start training as a runner, and I'm wondering what other activities I can take up, that may be more enjoyable than running that will help me. I've heard that if you want to get good at something, it can help to train in other areas because it will make you stronger overall (not just in health and fitness, but…

What can we do with 3 punnets of strawberries?!?
Somehow, my mum and I shopped seperately and ended up with 3 punnets of strawberries. I don't love them, but they are ok, and I needed more fruit in my diet, and I got confused and put them in my basket because there was a sale on. I like them with icing sugar, but that's not very healthy (and not with the amount of sugar…

Is it possible for your head to get smaller/narrower when you lose weight?
I know you lose weight from your chin (no more triple chin! hello cheek bones! goodbye neck fat), but what about around your head, where your hair is? I was watching a video of myself today, and from the side, I looked slim, but from the back, you could tell I was big. What do you think? Am I crazy?

KFC/Chemical High
I really like KFC and tend to have it once a week. I want to quit eating it, because there are things I can eat at home that taste better, and I think I just like it because it gives me some kind of chemical high, like when I need it, it calms some kind of need in me like an addiction that nothing else can satisfy. I can…

What do you have on garden salads? (low calorie)
I like to have mine saturated with dressing, but that is probably 150-300 calories. What do you have on or with a salad to make it edible?

I am disordered, what steps should I take?
I have an unhealthy relationship with food, exercise and my body. Are there are steps I should take before I start losing weight? The thought of taking time to just maintain freaks me out, but I guess its better than losing weight. I am convinced I cannot stay within a calorie amount. I consider overexercising to get a…

We can be friends. I have it too.

Gained 3kg, looks like 10-15... explain?
I have terrible food habits. I probably need to see a professional about it. Anyway, my weigh keeps bouncing up and down around 3kg. I see a personal trainer, so I wouldn't expect to be losing muscle, but recently I put the 3kg back on, and it looks like I've gained a lot more weight. There is a lot of fat around my face…

How many calories do you leave a day for drinks?

End of personal training
Due to financial reasons, I might have to stop seeing my personal trainer. I was meeting him to help my meet specific goals so I could look a certain way. I still have a lot of weight to lose. What should I do instead? I came up with these ideas: 1. buy some basic stuff like some dumbbells, tires, a step, a yoga ball and a…

What do you think of somatotypes?
Doesn't seem right to me, I have traits of all three. Plus anyone can be overweight? I found it discouraging because it suggested people of ''my type'' had underdeveloped muscle or were slow to build it- I thought it was just hiding under my fat.

Do any of you constantly have the urge to take your band off?
I get sick of wearing my fitness tracker, so miss most of the steps I take. I usually just wear it when I know I will go for a walk that day. I feel like if I wear my tracker, I HAVE to get above 10,000 steps, so it puts me off, because sometimes, (well, most times) I feel too lazy. I have slight Aspergers, so I like to be…

Friends with Aspergers/supporters
Anyone wanna be friends? I have Aspergers. I hate tough love and people judging my food choices. I keep getting sent requests by random people. I will only add people that include some sort of message, so I know why you are adding me. I would rather keep in touch via facebook or private messaging on MFP because the friend…

How do you let go of silly but destructive comments?
Sometimes people say things to me that result in me feeling depressed and falling off track. On my first week of losing weight, I lost 3 kilos (7lbs) which must have mostly been water weight and I was told if I didn't eat more I might faint and I was losing weight too fast. After working out how many calories I had left, I…

Feeling mad, motivation gone
I started going to what I thought was a really good Weight Watchers meeting. I followed the plan closely, and lost 3kg in one week. When I got to the weigh in, the leaders were acting concerned about my big weightloss, and the fact I hadn't eaten since breakfast and had a workout since. 1. Haven't they heard of…

How much could I lose off my calves a week?
I cant fit boots. I would like to lose 1cm a week. I have started using a scooter for an hour a day and doing 10,000 steps. I am also being strict with my food intake. My legs are massive.

Reviving old threads
Why do people get so butthurt over old threads getting revived? isn't that the point of the search function? so you don't have 700 threads about corn for example?
-
Do the calories still count for corn if it doesn't digest?
Because when you eat corn, it seems to come out the other end unscathed. I stopped eating corn for a while because it has so many calories, but to be honest, I quite enjoy the taste.

Are there foods you force yourself to eat because ''nutrition''
If I did, it would be stuff like spinach, eggs, yoghurt, carrots, beans, chickpeas and fruit.

How do you motivate yourself to eat and drink when sick?
I have had a very sore throat and bad cold for about 10 days, with no signs of it going away. Sometimes I wake up with a throat so dry that I can barely breathe, but I feel so tired that I don't want to get out of bed to take medicines and liquids to feel better. I had several cups of liquid, and my throat was still dry! I…

Has your taste in food changed for the worst?
I used to eat mostly healthy food, but now I am finding that I really don't want to eat things like fresh fruit and veges, yoghurt etc. I have gotten somewhat fussy. I don't mind eating food that other people have prepared for me, but I frequently buy fruit and vegetables for myself then avoid eating them. WTF is wrong…
