A Dieter's Worst Nightmare.
Okay I don't like the word "diet", but I couldn't think of a better word. Remember on The Biggest Loser, when they locked the contestants in a room with junk food as torture? Well that is my life. I work at a bakery, surrounded by cheesecake, cupcakes, cookies, brownies, lemon bars, pecan bars, pie, cinnamon rolls, coffee…

Exercise Calories - My Light Bulb Moment
I know many of you are going to say "I already knew that, it's common knowledge, yada yada...." BUT for me it was an epiphany! I have heard people say to only eat back no more than 50% of your exercise calories because MFP over estimates them, it's counter productive, etc. etc. But at work today it just CLICKED why you…

Decadent Frozen Banana Energy Bites!
I had seen a few different things like this floating around Pinterest, but all of them seemed to be missing something... so I invented my own! *WARNING* These are not some miraculously low-calorie diet food. They have a significant amount of calories per bite because they are made of whole, nutrient-rich, high protein…

Upset - Need to Vent!
So I don't know if any of you have heard of Vector, but it's a shady company that recruits naive college students to sell expensive CutCo knives. They scam kids out of a ton of cheap labor and money and are super sketchy. The trainings are unpaid, you have to pay a deposit to work there, you make almost no commission, you…

Ladies: Not pregnant but TOM is MIA...?
Never thought I would be asking a mass of strangers on the internet questions about my uterus... but here goes. :embarassed: Has making a diet/exercise change affected your TOM? I've been at this for a few months and this month my period is a week late (which is very irregular for me, I can usually predict its arrival down…

Share your secret to dedication!
Last year around this time I decided it was finally time to get back into shape. I only had about 25 pounds to lose. I joined MFP and did really really well with eating right and exercising. I lost 15 pounds the first month. Then, I started slacking off and eventually gave up. I gained all the weight back plus more. In…

Want more friends who are dieting, but not "dieting" :)
Hello! I'm not new, but I just purged my friends list of people who haven't logged on in many moons, and people who I have not communicated with since first becoming friends... so I want some new friends :) I'd like to be friends with people who are trying to get healthier while still eating things they enjoy and having a…

The "Diet Soda Will Kill You" Conspiracy
Okay, I'm going to preface this post by saying: Diet soda is not "healthy". It is not good to chug 60 oz of Diet Coke every day. Now there will be no way for anyone to say I'm advocating that diet pop is good for you. I have no problem with people choosing not to drink diet pop. What has irked me on this site is people…

Why is this happening?
Here's my deal. I'm on a 1500/day calorie plan. I eat a healthy breakfast most days, have a light lunch around 1, some snacks in the afternoon, and then a wholesome homemade dinner when my husband gets home from work in the evenings around 8 pm. What I'm getting at is that I don't just eat 1500 calories worth of empty junk…

Don't do this to me!
I'm 18 and when I started high school I gained about 20 pounds. I'm not "huge" but I would like to get back into shape. I work in an office as part of an internship. I am the youngest person who works there, most of the other people are 50+. In the break room there is always brownies or cupcakes or some other yummy…
