Nutrition information incorrect
Has anyone else noticed that a lot of times the nutritional information is wrong on a lot of the entries. I have been watching my fiber closely for a few weeks and have been falling short so I started comparing the info on the package to the info on MPG and a lot of the numbers are just wrong. It isnt just fiber either.…

Help for prune boobs
May be too personal for the forums, not sure but here goes... Starting weight 184 now 110. Starting bra size 38D now 34B. I don't really mind the smaller size so much. What I do mind is that all that is left seems to be skin. I don't mean just a little either, I mean ALL skin. So much so that leaning over too far causes…

fit bit confusion
Y fitbit is synced with mfp. It gives me on average 300 calories extra per day for my normal daily activity. I don't eat those back. Should I? Since it is just normal activity I am not sure.

How is this possible
Just a little back story before I ask my question. I started MFP about a year or so ago after being on WW for 2 years. After their program changed I stopped losing weight and came here. I set up my account and ate calories given to me (1200) and did not eat back exercise calories and lost most of the last 30lbs. Then I…

My Rant For The Day
At the risk of sounding like the king who complains about his castle being too big, here I go. I am so sick and tired of being told by every person I come into contact with that I have lost too much weight and am too thin. I am 5"3 and weigh 112 pounds. I used to be 184 pounds and it took 2 long years of hard work to get…

Deflated Balloon
That is what my stomach and chest currently resemble. At the beginning of my journey into weight loss I was at 184 lbs, I am now at 112 (5 ft 3 in). I started out on WW (wish I had not) where they do not put a whole lot of emphisis on strength and toning. Hence the deflated balloon look. Is there any possible way to…

red lobster
Going with the family tomorrow to red lobster. I am not a big fan of seafood but they love it. I really like the maple glazed chicken. My question is this comes with rice pilaf and broccoli but I am not sure if the nutrition info includes this. I looked at the litehouse menu and may try one of those. Anyone ever tried…
