Motivation
2 months from today in will be doing the Expedition Everest Challenge. The scary part is I fell off the MFP wagon HARD a couple weeks ago and don't think I could finish the race in my present condition. So my question to you is...what do you do to get your motivation back? I don't have a workout buddy because of crazy…

Adjusting protein percentage
OK, I know it's in here somewhere, just can't seem to find it. Can anyone clue me in on how to override MFP's percentage they give you for carbs and protein? If I don't fix my daily log I know I will be a protein slacker. Thanks!

Chicago area people - Portillos anyone?
Having trouble finding any nutritional info for Portillos. Has anyone found anything comparable to their charbroiled chicken sandwich? Wondering how many calories to guesstimate.

So confused with heart rate monitor calculations

So here's the question...can the turkey be browned, even a bit, in a pan…

Ladies - Need input
Desperately seeking a mascara that doesn't leave me looking like Alice Cooper (or Marilyn Manson for the younger folk) after my workout. Tried Maybelline, Avon and Cover Girl that all claim to be water-proof and sweat-proof. Anyone have any luck?

Body analysis scale
Does anyone own one of these that they really like? Was thinking of getting one but curious if they are all that accurate.

Do you agree, is it too late?
Quick confession so you know where I'm coming from. I have always been a very competetive racquetball player, state ranking and all. However, life happens and "me time" has been much harder to come by these past few years, so my skill level has slipped. After a 5 month hiatus from my gym, I hit the courts yesterday and…
