Weighing chicken wings?
How should I weigh chicken wings? The package says it is 55 calories per ounce. Is this including the bone or not? I have always weighed them before eating and then again after and subtracted the difference and logged that amount. But I am wondering if the package has already factored in bone, cartilage, etc?

Is being hungrier in the winter a real thing?
I always feel like I’ve heard the old adage that we are hungrier in the fall and winter because our ancestors needed to pack on the pounds when food was scarce. Is this real? I have been so hungry lately. I also read it might be because we tend to drink less water in the colder months which leads to phantom hunger.…

Anyone been on a Run Like A Girl retreat?
I am semi interested in signing up for one of these. I can’t find a cost, so I am sure it’s pricey. Anyone been on one of their trips? How much was it? Did you like it? https://www.facebook.com/runlikeagirlBC/posts/702550773202691

Question for those of you that have social anxiety?
What do you think caused your social anxiety? Was it something that happened in your past? An over all way you were treated at some point in your life? An issue with how you perceive yourself or with your self confidence? Just curious what everyone's thoughts on this are.

Looking for insight on adding weight training
I am a runner, but that is the extent of the exercise I do outside of lots of walking. I have lost 45 pounds and have another 40 to go, and I'm starting to want the benefits of weight training. I am not looking to lift heavy, sorry! So my question is, what do I need to consider regarding calorie needs (currently around…

Exercises for lower back posture
I've still got a ways to go but I've made significant progress with losing almost 25 pounds. However, I've always had a curve in my lower back that makes my tummy stick out. Are there any exercises to help with this? Or is this just how my spine is made? It's not a big deal but people always ask me if I'm pregnant because…

Anyone else getting sick often?
I've lost almost 25 pounds since December and I've been sick 3 times. I normally only get sick once a year, so this is different for me. I have been nauseated and freakishly tired during these bouts of sickness. So tired that I sleep 11 hours at night and still take a 3 hour nap. I can barely eat. These bouts of sickness…

Is anyone a lipsense distributor?
If you have any experience with it can you please tell me if it's really worth it without trying to get me to sign up under you? I am thinking about it but I need an honest opinion on if it's worth the time and money. Everything online is biased because they want you to sign up under them.

20 pounds lost, so many more gains!
SW 227, CW 207, GW 150. 5'7" Although 20 pounds is just a start, it's been amazing what I have gained from losing even just 9% of my weight. I'm not out of breath when we go to the zoo, I can run 3 miles 3-4 days a week, my clothes fit better and I've had to buy some smaller sizes. I actually like the way I look in…

What I thought of hellofresh (or other delivery meals)
Hi, I found it somewhat hard to find an honest review of delivery meals like hello fresh or blue apron since so many people are sharing affiliate links with a review. I had a really good coupon deal so I decided to try it out...and immediately cancel my subscription. Oddly, one of my husbands favorite thing to do is…

People that say rude comments that don't even notice it...
Sorry I have to rant here because twice today people have said things that really erk me. I know they don't mean to be rude, it was more of a lack of compassion. We all do it, but it's super hard when you are fighting the fat battle... 1. Two friends, very thin, we're discussing pregnancy weight with me. One says "omg…

Back to mfp after using noom for a while!
If anyone is tempted to try noom, don't! It's no where near as good as mfp and the coaches are non existent. I never heard from mine once and had 3 different coaches! I started mfp back in 2010-lost15 or so pounds. Went back to old habits and a busy lifestyle, got a desk job, got married, had a kid, and started back with…
