Running with a Garmin
Hello, There is this small and growing group now: myfitnesspal.com/Garmin-Connect-Runners If you just received your new Black Friday watch and are trying to figure it out.

Insulin sensitivity?
Without eating anything, exercise first thing on an empty stomach: according to https://physiology.org/doi/full/10.1152/ajpendo.00163.2018 I posted this in 'food' but it seems a better fit here. I have never done this. I struggle to get up and exercise, it is easier for me in the afternoon. I may try it as I get closer to…

Halfway to Goal
My goal is to lose 100 lbs. From (male, 5' 9", 246.3 lbs) to svelte fit 146.3 lbs. I am running and that is a big part of this process, and also a part of what I want to do at goal weight. I dream of lining up, prepared to run a brisk 5K, up in the 'A' group with a t-shirt saying on the back "How did you lose 100 lbs?" and…

MFP Activity Level setting
I think this setting is both very important to make the MFP tools work well, and it is poorly explained. I have been motivated to put it at a higher level than what I now believe is correct. It is from wanting to inflate my activities, and also the setting not being very well described. Here's what I mean. I've been…

I finished a half marathon
Yesterday I completed a half marathon. I have been steadily using MFP to keep my eating under control, and my Garmin 645/Music to train. The preparation, and the actual event all went really well. I want to keep making progress, but I also want to dial it down for a little while. Briefly 'dial down' not 'stop, and…

Not being a "normal' BMI
First "BMI" is redmeat for flamewars and that's not my point...I just put it in the title. Here is an observation, I'd like to bounce it off of others. Young men who are morbidly obese often have a pattern, start losing weight, start exercising, start having some boost in self-esteem, then drop into what is the area of…

As MFP "Groups" are not used much, I'm wanting to figure out a good Challenge using "Groups"
I started MFP after using another social media fitness/weightloss platform...PeerTrainer(PT). It was not a robust platform, and it had a different fundamental layout than MFP. Of course MFP is the monster and is all things to everyone...I'm generally very happy with what I get out of MFP...for free. That said, the feeling…

Garmin Watch w/ Music - anyone?
Hello, I just bought a used Garmin 645 Music, and after about a week I really think it is going to work well for me. Anyone else have one of these newer Garmins? The three that have Music are 645, the Vivoactive 3, and Fenix 5 plus. What do you think so far?

Are MFP "Groups" useless?
On MFP there are forums/Message Boards (where I am posting now) and we all see them, the get used a bunch. The Message Board feed is on all of our homepages. But, MFP also has "groups." I've started a handful of groups. I've joined a handful of groups. There is one group that has some activity, but it basically is one…

Yoga not syncing to MFP
I paid good money to go to a yoga class. I worked hard. My Vivoactive 3 has a 'yoga' activity and I used that to track the class. It all came out well. But I don't think activitities like yoga sync over to MFP. I am thinking only aerobic stuff like running, biking, swimming sync over. What have ya'll seen with syncing…

Man who is fit and fat
I'm 75 lbs overweight. If I lost 25 lbs, I'd been feeling free and loose in all of my clothes. 50 lbs would have me looking very different, and all of my wardrobe would be different. That would feel great. Lifetime, smart, most healthy weight though? Drop 75lbs. I've run a bunch and not that I'm old I feel much tougher. I…

Garmin Running not showing up on newsfeed
Hello, I've been running this week. The runs sync over from GC and show up in my daily exercise diary. I get credit for the calories. But the run doesn't show up in my newsfeed for my friends to see. In 'settings' 'newsfeed' there is a post for an 'aerobic activity' and I do have that checked. Any ideas?
