BMI
What are your thoughts on BMI? I just calculated my current BMI and what weight I need to get to for a "healthy" BMI. The top of the healthy range is one pound lower than the goal I had set for myself. I can adjust one pound. I see BMI as one more tool in the toolbox, not some end-all, be-all. Your thoughts?

Weigh-in Frequency
It is time for another Friday Goad weigh-in thread, but how often do you actually weigh yourself? Does it change depending on where you are in your weight management journey? Do you do better or worse at weight management depending on the frequency of your weigh-ins? Less than once a week Once a week Daily More than once a…

MFP app navigation
I have a bookmark for the GoaD board on my computer, but it takes several steps to get here on the app. I have to go to Community, Groups, and finally My Groups. Does anyone know a shortcut in the app?

Time for another "I'm back!" thread
I'm back after, as best I can tell, about 7 years. It makes me happy to see that GoaD has survived, and that there are still some familiar people posting. Some things don't change I guess. As a quick update for the group, I made WW Lifetime in 2012. I maintained that weight for about 9 years. A major medical situation in…

Remembering the good old days
I have not lost weight in three days. I think I've hit a plateau. Should I increase my points? I think my body is in starvation mode. ;)

New threads
Nice to see all the new threads. Good discussions. As much as I tend to steer clear of the daily threads, who remembers the old 'Clean Room'? That is what it was called, right? Didn't we all 'come clean' on Thursdays?

Doing WW without doing WW
I did my WW under the Points Plus program. They are two or three programs later now. Since I no longer have access to the PP program, the way I 'do WW' is to assign foods point values by dividing calories by 40 (easier math than 36 or 37, whatever the actual number was). I still do the zero-point fruits and use a daily…

Girl Scout Cookies
They are in the office and a big reason I'm up several pounds over the last week. Ugh!

OT - coins and stamps
WAY off-topic.......we have a collection of coins and a collection of stamps, neither of which is properly stored or organized. No idea if there is any real value here or not. Anyone know how to find a fair way to get them valued and sold? We have never sold on e-bay and would like to sell the collections whole rather than…

I caught myself
I caught myself saying ‘I only lost one pound’. Me, who has admonished people on the boards for using ‘only’ and ‘lost’ in the same sentence, was guilty of it. I had set a goal for myself of losing 5 pounds in three weeks for a race I wanted to run. That is another thing I caution people against – setting strict time goals…
