A fast food meal worth falling off the wagon for???
A couple of my MFP pals ate at a fast food restaurant for lunch today. I did the same on Monday so maybe I am the bad apple in this bunch. I was very encouraged by what I’ve seen them do and what I did myself. We balanced our day so that we didn’t go over our calorie allotted for the day, as simple as that. I was…

Addicted to sugar?? It makes me feel better!
Ok, so here is the scoop. I was feeling run-down and kinda crappy today. No appetite, etc but I still ate a bit of my breakfast and lunch. I have a doctors appointment later this afternoon. But why...when I ate some chocolate I felt better almost immediately? I think this is a problem, am I addicted to sugar? Anyone else…

Unsure how to begin EM2WL
I may just begin to EM2WL. I already have my calories at 1700 range but according to the calculators I need to be higher than that. I am bouncing between the same 10 pounds and I need something to get me out of this rut, and I don't really think eating less is going to get it done for me at this point. Plus I want to lift…

Happy about the progress toward the goal weight...to be cont
TGIF everyone. My doc was happy about my progress toward health and wellness and losing 10 pounds since I saw him in December. He did loosen my band about 1/4 cc because it was a bit tight and I had been having some sliming and spitting up. Now to kick it into high gear and challenge myself for the next three months and…

new to this group
I am so glad to see some more banders on MFP. Good to know I am not alone. I was banded December 2009, and I have lost 122 pounds and counting. I started MFP towards the end of my weight loss, and now I am so close to my goal weight that my focus is on calories in/calories out and less on the band. It is full to the max…

HELP!! I'm seeing family this weekend that haven't seen me i
This is not about what I should and shouldn’t eat at the party…I’m not stressing about that. This weekend I am seeing family members that have not seen me in a long time. I need some suggestions/ideas on how to handle the comments. They are extended family so I don’t see them often. Some of them haven’t seen me since…

Back to tracking and focusin on my health and well being.
Back to tracking and focusing on my health and well being. On another note I did lose while on my hiatus and I have no idea how but...pat's self on the back. MFP friends, how many of you have gotten into a new relationship and let your personal goals/life fall away to focus on this person?? I have a feeling I am doing…

Not sure whether I am obsessed or not
I like to plan my calories beforehand, so today it's only 10 am but I have already inputted what I will have for lunch and later for dinner. I do this so I know where I am as far as my calorie goals for the day. I don't keep myself striclty and rigidly to what I've put for any given meal, if something changes then I am…

Carbs and Sugar
I am new to this site and my current settings track my calories, carbs, protien, fat and sugar. I can usually be under my calorie goal, my fat and carbs no problem. I NEVER seem to eat all my protien for the day and I ALWAYS go over my sugar and sometimes my fat content. I know this is a problem with my nutritional intake…

Dr. recommended this site for tracking my calories
My bariatric doctor wants me to track my calories on this site. I started out on my BB using the app and love how I can switch between phone and site easily. My battery runs down very quickly when using the app, but my phone doesn't seem to keep much of a charge anyway so it's not an issue with the app. My doctor wants me…
