For Weekly Weighers, Why did you pick the day you did to weigh in?
I see some people that only weigh once a week, others weigh every day but only record once a week. For those of you in this situation, why did you pick the day you did? I see people saying that they log their weight or weigh in on Mondays. To me that makes no sense. Why weigh in after a weekend when you could have over…

MFP TDEE Calculation
I guess this isn't a bad problem to have, but it seems that using the MFP Guided Setup is calculating my calories low. I am male, 5' 11" 200lbs, 42 years old. I exercise, moderately lifting weights three times a week and running for about two miles once a week. Otherwise I am very sedentary day to day; I work in an office…

Homemade Greek Yogurt
I made this in my Crock Pot for the first time over the weekend and it turned out much better than I expected. Almost exactly the same consistency of the Fage Total that I used as the starter.

Diary OCD
Am I the only one? Today I remembered that I forgot to log something in my food diary on Tuesday. Me with my OCD had to go back an log it. The entry didn't even matter, it was croutons on a salad but I just couldn't help myself. Does anyone else do this?

Treadmill Steep Incline
I have seen this more than once while at the gym and I don't understand it. I see people using the treadmill with a steep incline. This makes sense as the incline would be like walking up a hill which is harder than walking level. However these people have the treadmill on a steep incline and are leaning back supporting…
