Wanted- vegetables to taste nice!
I find it really hard to enjoy most vegetables and would be interested in any tasty tips regards to particular seasonings or prep methods. For example I have found I love broccoli if it's still firm and tossed in chilli and garlic. Maybe I just need to add chilli and garlic to everything but it's always worth an ask!

"You look too skinny"
... or perhaps you just dont like having me as the fat friend that made you look good! I have had a couple of people tell me I should stop now but I am still 10lb away from a healthy BMI - I know that isn't everything but I am DEFINITELY not thin! It bothered me that they couldn't be supportive. Is this a common thing as…

Uk based?
Hi, I've been here since August and have been added by some lovely people, but from the US so I'm always catching up on posts. If anyone from the UK is looking to add people doing similar to them (my friends don't get it, most don't need to watch their intake, don't wish to or are on that bloody juice plus) please feel…

Do you tell people?
Following on from a thread I have been reading about people making negative comments when you are making healthy choices, I am wondering now if people tell others that they are tracking their intake and making a conscious effort to lose weight? I am hit and miss with it, depending who it is. Some people (dad, bf, friends)…

wanted please - vegetarian, without peppers and mushrooms!
Is there such a thing?? My boyfriend is vegetarian and I have yet to cook for him. Seeing as I am trying to sort my weight and health out, I would like to find something to make to replace our weekly takeaway. Recipes I find always seem to focus around peppers and/or mushrooms, neither of which I can stand. I'm not big on…

Because my phone makes it look like a smiley laughing face, but laptop it looks more "wtf??!" Or "woah, chill".. and they're quite different. I really don't…

Exercises suggestions please
Hi, I am pretty new to MFP having finally got to the point where I realise faddy diets are not going to provide long term benefits and sustainable weight loss. I think I have my head around the eating side of things, but what I have never really known anything about is productive exercise. What I would really love to do is…

Profiles (& kittens)
Is this the right place to ask about general forum stuff? I've two questions for you all. 1. How do I read someone's profile? Clicking on a name in the forum brings up a message box, clicking again takes me to their feed it it's public, but I can't seem to get to an actual profile. I'm normally ok with figuring things out…

Snack ideas needed
I do not always get a chance to sit and eat my lunch in one go while at work and so have often ended up snacking on junk foods and wolfing down a quick sandwich. It ends up being mindless eating and with the junk, obviously hungry again before I know it which is just silly. I have seen a lot of talk of nutrient dense foods…

Newbie (UK) - Hello!
Hi people. Today is my first time discovering these forums. I started using MFP when I realised it synced with Samsung Health but I could track food in advance easier. I haven't quite figured it all out yet but I am keen to increase my fitness as well as lose weight so it sounded like a good place to start. I am a 31 year…
