Real Weight
This may be a stupid question but it has been frustrating me for a while and I don't want it to get in the way of my recent motivation. I weigh myself first thing in the morning and then again after coming back from work. I always weigh less ( sometimes up to 2 lbs) in the afternoon than in the morning. I always assumed…

MFP Pet Peeve
I've browsed a few topics over here and I found something that has really bothered me. Certain people have started topics to ask for advice whether on food, exercise or supplments and have been met with the "I'm an expert and this is a stupid inquiry" attitude. Even if you think a certain supplement or practice is not…

Calorie Counting Marination
So I'm working on making more homemade meals and registering all the calories on MFP. I am currently marinating my chicken breasts in buttermilk and a few spices and was wondering when inputting the recipe, do I take the buttermilk and spices into consideration calorie-wise? If so, do I put the full amount seeing as there…

Zumba Wii
So I just bought the Zumba 2 for Wii and have heard many great reviews on it, however I also heard that the calorie tracker on the game overstates calories burned. I don't have a HRM *yet* and I wasn't sure how accurate zumbacalories.com is? For those who have HRM and the game, what percentage do you say would be the…

84 Cal Chocolate Muffins
So I LOVE baking but seeing as more baking = more calories I have stayed away from it. Last night craving got insane so I found this recipe online, it says they are 91 calories but when I calculated it on MFP (with an additional tablespoon of sugar) it came to 84 cal so it's in that range. The end result was good, but you…

A Visual Look at Sugar Content
A friend of mine sent me this website today to show how much sugar there is in the food we consume presented by 4gms sugar cubes. It can get really disturbing once you get into the Thanksgiving and Dessert sections, have to say this makes me pay even more attention to my sugar intake. http://www.sugarstacks.com/

Giving this a more serious try
Hello, I have found MFP a while ago and joined but never checked the forums and after a slow weight loss progress I gave up too quickly. But I have been gaining tons of weight lately and I need to this right and be patient because crash diets are just not doing the trick. After participating in a few posts here, I have had…

30 Day Shred and Calorie Burned
Hello, I recently bought the 30DS DVD after giving up on it last year because I got too sore. I also use my elliptical regularyly (30 mins daily) but I was wondering how does one track calories burned from such a workout like 30DS or Zumba/dance workouts and is it too much stress to do both 30DS and daily elliptical…
