HMR and updating weight
I bought myself a polar ft4 this week.. What I am curious, for those of you with HMR's, how often (if any) do you update your weight so the reading is more accurate? Weekly, biweekly, certain amount of pounds??? Which do you do? Thanks!!

Changing initial start weight
Okay, so I've been on here before and put in my weight (2 ish years ago). I'm back again and my starting weight is slightly higher than it was back then. Is there anyway to change the initial starting weight so that when I am losing weight it reads my current loss? Right now it is waiting until I get back down to my…

Meal planning is key!
Hey all, so I know it's pretty obvious but I am realizing that meal planning is going to be the key to my success (among other things). I'd like to know what kind of supper meals you plan (so that I can add some to my repertoire of meals). Some meals I do are... #1 - half chicken breast sprinkled with seasoning salt,…

Hey YOU. YES I'm talking to you!
I want you to be my friend. I need all the outside help I can get to keep me motivated and check up on me. There for a while about 6 months ago I was doing great (with the lack of school/classes because of the university strike) but slacked off once my studies were a go again. So with that being said, I think you're pretty…

Ankle exercises
I have some really weak ankles from back when I played sports in high school. I recently joined baseball and volleyball and can semi rolled my right ankle. I was wondering what are some strengthening exercises that I can try ? I know the obvious of rotating the ankles, but other than that, I am stuck. Any help would be…

They said all you have to do is spray it twice a day for six weeks, cut out majority of dairy and carbs, and results should be seen. My…

I'm confused...
Okay, so I've been on MFP for a little while now, and I really want to see results. Although, I didn't take measurements before I started, nor do I have a scale. I weigh myself when I go home to my parents (about once a month), I figure that if I am losing weight, that my clothes will start feeling different. I've got a…

Studying + Junk Food = Student
It always seems that no matter what I am studying for, I always crave junk food. I want it all, chocolate, pop, chips, candy, you name it, I want it! I find that midterms aren't so bad, and I typically choose a healthier snack, but once finals come and spending hours on end at the library studying, I don't want something…

Supper Meals for Breakfast
There are days when I would rather eat leftover food from supper than have actual "breakfast foods." This probably isn't the healthiest thing to be doing, does anybody have any suggestions how to not crave these foods in the a.m.? Or does anybody else do this weird habit?
