Why did you use mfp?
I’ve just ordered a new Fitbit and decided I wanted some new tracking features. I spent about six hours today looking at different tracking sites and came to the conclusion that MFP was the best option for now, after all. What a waste of time. Most of the sites had locked access to the Fitbit app behind a paywall. I wanted…

What has been your experience with the Fitbit versus 4?
I bought it, then came across a whole lot of bad reviews :( all I really care about is calorie count, sleep, screen brightness, steps, calories and using in the shower. also, can you adjust how many calories are added in the diary from the Fitbit app? I have lost weight using the suggested amount from the inspire 2, and…

How do you stay on track during grief?
I have Bipolar and am scared it will trigger a manic episode. I just found out my dad has cancer and we don't know how long he has left, whether it's months or years. I don't know if I need to be careful from now or wait until/ if he dies. I don't want to regain the 25kg or stop eating. He doesn't want that either. I don't…

Does anyone find it weird when people freak out over consuming an extra chocolate bar?
Like at my worst I would eat… Two bags of chips, a bag of coloured or caramel popcorn, onion dip, a 1.5L of diet coke (lol), 2 bags of sweets and a block of chocolate or… Two pizzas, a garlic bread, chicken wings, a drink and chips (usually over two days, but still not good). It just seems… extreme. Sorry if this seems…

Popcorn
How much do you eat? what do you have with it? I've seen that the average serving is 2 cups of popped corn. That's ridiculous to me, I'm going to have 4-6 cups. I usually make about 70g of kernals and it's about 450 calories before I add anything, which is crazy, I might as well have a bag of chips! How do you do it? do…

Do you have a set list of meals that you choose from each day?
My sister made herself a list of meals she could have with the appropriate macros of say, six different things for breakfast and lunch. Do you do this, and has it been helpful for you? I'm thinking of doing this but I need to figure out how much protein and fibre should be in each meal and what foods to put together to…

What would some good alternatives for these be?
at my worst I have been drinking up to eight cups a day of coffee with milk and three teaspoons of white sugar. I tried with two spoons of sugar and didn’t like it. Another shocking thing I would do is if I was craving chocolate or sugar and couldn’t afford a treat, I would make icing with cocoa, icing sugar and butter. It…

What to do on days your too mentally exhausted to function?
How do you track your food, exercise, do your daily routines and to do lists on stressful/tiring days? I found out that I have neurodiversity in my dna and struggle between Autism symptoms and AD(H)D and apparently they fight against each other for control. I wonder if this is a sign of being too overweight or unfit and if…

Funny, new to meal planning
I am going to my sisters house tomorrow and have to feed myself. I made food in advance for the first time, and I made two ham and cheese sandwiches, two hardboiled eggs, corn, green beans, a protein shake, an apple and a bunch of veges. I showed my dad the food and he said "are you going there to look after the kids, or…

What do I do to replace the tea/coffee w/ milk in my diet?
I had six cups of coffee the other day, and because I had milk with it, it was more than 500 calories. I don't know what to do... I don't want to have straight coffee (no milk) because I've heard it stains your teeth. I'm only a fan of English breakfast tea, I don't think I like green tea or other options. I can't try milk…

How do you turn off cravings?
I wanted KFC the other day, and couldn't stop thinking about it for like an hour straight. I ended up buying KFC. Sometimes it tastes great and really hits the spot, and sometimes- not so much. What makes the cravings go away? I've heard of having it anyway and fitting it around your calories, filling up on healthy food,…

Phone vs web browser food logging shortlist
To get a shortlist on your phone of foods you are tracking, is it better to intially record foods on your phone, or will browser entered entries appear as well? What are the pros and cons of tracking on your phone vs your computer web browser? my niece told me just to use my phone. I was originally using both. (Previous…

Flip to maintainace mode on days you don't want a deficit
Hi! It would be cool if there was a switch we could click in our food diaries to make our calorie goal match our maintance goal for days we wish to indulge in more calories without overeating. Another idea, which they had on sparkpeople, is you could have a calorie range for each day, so have the goal to lose between a…
