I need motivators!
Hello all! This is not my first time using MFP. In fact, about 7 years ago, I had lost 99 pounds using MFP before I got pregnant with my son. About a year ago, I switched over to Weight Watchers. I needed a change as I didn’t feel MFP was working as well as I wanted anymore. While I liked WW and had some success on it, I…

Fitbit Calories Burned
Ok just a question for those that have a fitbit. So far today, it tells me that I have burned 660 calories just from walking and stuff like that. I did do an actual workout of 25 minutes of walking at a faster pace, which it told me that I burned 344 calories there, way more than my old HRM would have given me. So I guess…

HRM
My HRM took a crap and I need to get a new one. I had a Polar FT4. Just wondering what everyone else uses to see what else is out there and if it will work for me. Thanks in advance!

Looking for Friends to Motivate!
I know this is going to be long but please bear with me. I really need to get this out! I'm really struggling right now! I've never been depressed, other than some undiagnosed post-partum depression after having my son a year and a half ago, but I think I'm heading in that direction. I'm struggling to be happy, even at…

Back at it!
I'm not new here by any means. Actually, I've been using MFP for the last 3 years. But since getting pregnant with my son in May of 2013, I have slipped...a lot!

Hello All, I have been on MFP for the past two years and up until finding out I was pregnant in May, I had lost 99 pounds.

I don't want to gain so much…

Zumba 2 on Wii
Does anyone know if the calories that it says you burn after completing a class on Zumba 2 for the Wii is somewhat accurate? I have to get a new battery for my HRM so I can't determine if its too high or if it is close. All I know is I sweated a lot during the exercise lol!

Help!!! Fitbit Question
Ok my fellow MFP friends, I have a quick question regarding Fitbit. I have had mine for two weeks and my question is this: Do you just log your workouts (elliptical, walking, running, etc) and erase you fitbit adjustments or do you allow MFP to take all of your calories burned from the day according to what your fitbit…

However, when I was done, my fitbit said I had walked 3.36 miles. Im only 5'3 with short legs so Is this because I have short legs so it looks…
