Anyone have any experience with Vegan Keto?
If anyone has any experience with eating Vegan Keto I would love to see what items you eat and what Macro values you use. Thanks! :) I have found roasted pumpkin seeds or Pepitas are high fat low carb and work well as a snack. If I ate meat it would be very easy for me to do keto but since I do not it is a challenge. I…

Question about food measurement
Hi! I was wondering.. when I cut up a veggie I plan to bake and I have say 6oz of it raw on the scale is that what I count when I log it or do I cook it then weigh it and log it when it's 1.5-2 ounces lighter? This always confuses me. Thanks! :)

So confused and fed up!
I'm so tired of not having solid information about what to eat. Now I'm hearing "What the Health" has been debunked too. I've been eating a vegan plant based diet for 9 days and I feel a lot better. I gave up all dairy and meat for 30 days so I have until 8/19 then I'll decide how to proceed. There are too many experts out…

Bodybugg/Mediafit discontinued. Are there any other options? I heard jawbone bought them. updates?
Hi! I wanted to finally get a bodybugg then I hear it's discontinued. Possibly jawbone bought Mediafit? Does anyone know if it's coming back? Also I see I could buy one on Amazon but if the website is gone that makes the tracker unusable correct? I'd appreciate any info on this. If I can still buy one and use it that's…

Hi! I have a Fitbit blaze and a misfit shine to use when I cycle or at the pool. I have my Fitbit linked go MFP but can't get the misfit shine to connect. Are you only allowed one tracker? Thanks :)

Could someone tell me the best size to order for Fitbit Charge HR?
Hi! I've decided to order the Fitbit Charge HR and it comes in small and large. I'm female about 150 pounds and Average stature 5'4. I think I would need the small as I've read they might need a tight fit on the wrist. Is this correct? Could someone with experience let me know if I should order small or large? Thanks so…

People with HRM please can you answer this fast question for
I hope this isn't a silly question but can you wear your heart monitor and the watch that comes with it while swimming? Does anyone do this? It appears to be waterproof material but I am not doing it unless someone assures me it's okay. Thanks! If not, can you buy ones for swimming? :)

Help! Please explain best uses of HRM Thanks!
Hi! I was very lucky that Santa brought me a HRM for Christmas this year. It is one that straps around your chest and you wear the watch to see it. It also will cause any machine you are on at the gym to show your heart rate continuously and you don't have to grab the handles to see it. I am a newbie to exercise and have…

Burning Calories in a Sauna/Wrap Dome. Anyone know anything
I was told you burn around 600 calories every 30 minutes just by laying inside this heated tube. This has me curious. Has anyone done this or know anyone that has? It sounds kind of dangerous to me. Thanks! :) (Anything to get out of a workout right? lol)

Anyone have the C25K (Couch to 5K) app?
I am seriously thinking of doing this since it says it is for beginners. Does anyone have this? What do you think? I really want to run a 5K by June of 2012! :) Thanks!

Do you weigh your foods? If so HELP! :)
I have been told by my RD to meticulously weigh and measure all food intake and I have been trying to do that. I realize that measuring anything incorrectly can really cause a big problem with your calorie intake. Just letting something go over the top of a measuring cup can add over 50 calories that may not get counted…

30 DS Easier when I substitute music :)
Not sure if anyone else will use this tip but once you have done the 30 DS enough times where you know it well, try turning down the volume and watch it but do it to your favorite music. Maybe it's psychological but I enjoy it more this way. I don't really care for the music they use so this helps me. Just thought I would…

How many calories are burnt by completing level 1 of 30 DS?
Does anyone know? I have no idea how many calories are burned or how to enter this into my diary. I have been saying low impact aerobics 20 minutes but that doesn't seem right. Help! :) Thanks in advance.

How do I know how many calories I am really burning?
Help! My pedometer says one thing, this site says another, the machine I use has a third value, and various websites also have different numbers. I have been doing the 30 day shred DVD with Jillian Michaels and I don't know what to count it as so I have said it is 20 minutes of low impact aerobics when I enter it in here,…

Help! My treadmill is dying!
Well I have a nice treadmill I bought back in 06 and it has been sitting dormant for about 3 years until I dusted it off and started using it Monday. I walked 30 minutes Monday and Tuesday with no problem. Today 20 minutes into my walking it just stopped. The belt stopped not the electronic panel which was still showing…

Question about logging a strength training activity
HI! I just did 4 sets of 20 with 3 lb weights where I lift my arm from elbow out to the sides and where I lift the weight as high as I can up above my head. I found in the app where they have "Bent arm lateral" would this be correct for the first one? I have no idea what the second exercise would be called. When I entered…

Newbie Exercise Question
Question...I have pain at the fronts of my legs from walking on the treadmill for the last 2 days (which are my very first 2 days). Shin splints? I see that I should mix it up so should I focus on weights today (I am supposed to get 30 of cardio a day) or get on the treadmill and push through it? Thanks in advance! :)

Just wanted to say Hi! :)
Hi! My name is Kellie and I am new here. Just installed the app on my iPhone and plan on using it faithfully. I will be starting a new diet Monday September 26th which a Registered Dietician has put together for me. It is pretty strict so I thought it would help to have some friends to support me. I have a husband that…
