FitOn vs. Daily Burn
Which do you prefer for home workouts and why?

Sleep Apnea
I have felt like a walking zombie for the past month or so. I've had my thyroid rechecked and it's good with the dose of meds I'm on. My dr wants me to do a sleep study/ test for sleep apnea and she said it can affect your ability to lose weight....which is a catch 22 since losing weight can help your sleep apnea :/ . Just…

Intuitive Eating vs. Tracking Calories
Does anyone have experience with both? If so, what are your thoughts? For about 10 months I've been working with an IE coach. But I keep having the urge to go back to tracking calories. Just trying to decide what's best for me.

Tracking Success without a Scale
Several months ago I got rid of my scale because I would obsessively weigh myself everyday and the results would determine my mood for the day. I'm considering just taking my measurements once a month for my progress and and tracking my food and good habits, avoiding the rabbit hole that results in me weighing myself…

Thoughts on BodyPump Class??

The Moment it Clicked
So I feel like an eternal "dieter". I am always "trying" to lose weight without actually putting my all into it and thus am never really successful...but I won't give up half heartedly "trying". I have been a member of MFP for years and have joined WW more than 5 times. Only once, 14 yrs ago was I successful on WW. I lost…

Protein Shake/Powder Recommendations
What is your favorite protein shake powder? I was using Isagenix and really like it, but it's pretty pricey. Looking for something a little cheaper but still tastes good. I have one now but I really don't like it...any flavor of it :neutral:

Garmin Active Calories
For some reason my activity calories aren't sncying from my Garmin to MFP. Both apps say they're connected to each other but my exercise calories aren't showing up in MFP. If I want to manually add them, I just use my "active" calories burned, right? Not resting calories.

21 Day Fix Question
So I just got the portion containers in the mail and I'm doing the calculation to see how many of each I should eat in a day...but it seems like so many more calories (hundreds more) than the calculation on MFP. I am hesitant to eat that much since I've been trying to eat 1,300 on MyFitnessPal and 21 Day Fix is…

Best Meal Replacement Shake
I don't depend on these to replace meals on a regular basis but I find it's a good option when you need to grab and go. What's your favorite? I have Isagenix in my cabinet that I like...but it's kinda pricey.

Who Plans Meals
I know that it's a huge key to weightloss success but I have never gotten meal planning down. I hate cooking & I hate grocery shopping...I rarely take a list....I just buy my usual & usally just know what I'm out of. I've attempted meal planning a few times but it kind of feels overwhelming plus I don't like the idea of…

Getting the most out of MFP....need help
I'll keep this short...I have struggled with my weight for as long as I can remember. I've joined Weight Watchers & lost & gained more times than I can count. And I'm so fed up....with the process of trying to get healthy & with myself. I've reached my highest weight & I feel like I'm at a loss as to what to do because I…

Fitbit+Dailyburn
So my Fitbit is linked to MFP & logs the calories burned from my steps. I've also been doing Daily Burn. Do I log my exercise from Daily Burn in addition or would that be doubling up? It's just that in some of the workouts I'm sweating & breathing hard & my heart rate is elevated but I'm not necessarily taking a lot of…

Anybody use Daily Burn
Thinking about trying Daily Burn. Anybody using it? What are your thoughts?

I'm considering Paleo. I'd like to hear what made you decide to eat Paleo, what obstacles did you have to overcome, how did you do it and what benefits have you experienced? Thanks!

Just Started
I just started CF! Yesterday was my 2nd class. I need to lose around 50 lbs and am very out of shape. I feel like I'm gonna die...but like it at the same time...sounds crazy! I would never push myself that much on my own and I love seeing what I can accomplish...that I never thought I could. I still HATE Burpees...but I…

Cheat Sheets/ Helper Apps
When I was on Weight Watchers, they had an app with "Cheat Sheet" for if you were going to a Chinese/Mexican/Italian restaurant or out for cocktails. And it would give you the best options for those kinds of foods. There was even a tool that you could build your own pizza or pasta bowl and it would tell you the "Points"…

Thinking of cutting out sugar
I'd say my biggest challenge to weight loss is sugar/sweeteners. I really don't have the control to eat a little bit. I have gone sugar (refined sugar) free and caffeine free for about 2 months in the past and I felt good. But then I went back to bad habits. It concerns me because my mom and both grandmas on mom & dads…

Is there a setting to change the use of exercise calories?
Is there a place in settings to change it so it won't add your exercise calories onto your diary? I want to keep track of my exercise but I don't want it to add the calories burned onto my calorie allotment for the day.

Where do you get your motivation
I need a major kick in the pants. Not sure it's motivation, I need a steady helping of stick-to-itiveness and commitment. What helps you personally to stick to your plan?
