Weight Loss Tips
If you had to pick one fitness or eating tip that has helped you the most during weight loss, what would it be? Here's mine: If I eat one brownie or cookie (or other type of junk food), I can't just give up on my healthy eating and start eating more of them. One brownie won't show up later, but 10 of them will.

mfp chatroom
Is anyone ever on that? I'm on it right now and it says I'm the only one . . .

Should I give up?
I really don't want to do this, but it seems that I just can't follow through with my normal eating and exercise habits. Since I've started this, which was in April, I have lost only 10 pounds. And actually I probably gained some back because I haven't weighed myself in a week or so. I know what they say . . . going slowly…

Has this ever happened to you?
It seems that every time I eat something bad and then go shopping, the clothes I try on always are a size or two bigger than I really wear. Is this because of bloating, or the food, or what? And I also realize that whenever I eat something bad, my stomach appears to be bigger than normal. I just had an entire bag of chips,…

I can't believe it . . .
I had 2 servings of Ocean Spray Craisins, and the sugar content was over 50 grams! That's about twice as much as MFP says I'm supposed to have!:noway: Is that bad? But it's from fruit, so . . .

Leaving . . .
So on Saturday I'm leaving for the beach. I'll be there for a week, with no Internet access. I'm sure there are other people who have taken breaks from MFP. What strategies helped you stay on track? Thanks in advance!:flowerforyou:

A Craving Trick
I read in a fitness magazine about a trick to use when you are craving something bad. First, imagine that food.:devil: Then imagine the food that you think tastes like the worst thing in the world!:sick: Then imagine what these 2 would look like together. Pretend to eat this dish and focus on what it would taste like to…

I need help . . .
Tomorrow I am giving a speech on why healthier foods should cost less than non-healthy foods. I am also explaining why fast food is making our nation more unhealthy. Any points I should include in the speech? I want to make sure I'm not missing anything. Thanks!:flowerforyou:

How to tell a friend that she eats unhealthy
I have this friend and she eats fast food EVERY SINGLE DAY. Now you may say this isn't my problem, but she always says things to me like, "Let's go to McDonalds!" or "You like Wendy's, right?" I really want to help her, because it's the same people that are making our world more unhealthy. At the same time, I want her to…

Some people are just so mean . . .
So today I was surfing the internet and I saw this quiz that said, "are you fat?" So just for fun, I type "are you fat quiz" into the google search box and a whole bunch of links came up. Then this woman (who I'm NOT friends with) looks over my shoulder and says, "Oh my gosh, yeah you are!" Then another girl (who I thought…

My Vending Machine Idea
Today I was at the Y. M. C. A. and I wanted to get something from the vending machines. So I walk up and decide to get a NutriGrain bar. It said it was a good source of whole grain, so I go "Oooh, that sounds healthy and yummy!" Then I look and it has 14 grams of sugar, no fiber, artificial flavorings. I eat it, and it…

Bad Habits Busters
We all have "bad habits". Maybe it's those chocolate chip cookies that, once you take one, you end up going back . . . and back . . . Or maybe it's those mints that you use to "freshen your breath" but actually make you gain extra weight. Maybe it's making excuses not to exercise. Or maybe hanging out with friends who make…

ADDICTED (HELP!!!!!!!!!!!)
Every day that I'm too busy to go on mfp, I quickly write down everything I ate that day. I haven't entered anything in my food diary in a week. I even forgot to write down some of the foods I ate. :huh: I ate realllllly bad this weekend and I think that was because I knew I would just forget what I ate and not have to see…

This is what I really hate . . .
When there's this box of really yummy food and it's only, say 140 calories 2 grams of fat, etc. Healthy stuff. So you eat what you think is a serving and then you look at the serving size and it's about a fourth of what you thought it was.:angry: ITS NOT FAIR WHEN A COMPANY SAYS "ONLY 100 CALORIES"*************** (Note on…

NEW GROUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, MFP-ers, would anyone be interested in a group that motivates each other - but the focus isn't all on weight. Just like being healthy in general. I want to run a 5K this summer, and I am in serious need of motivation, because I am NOT a runner-girl:laugh: And we could teach each other new exercises and tricks to eat…

Ohhhhhhh, the weekend!!!!!!!!!!
I looked at my reports and it seems like I eat more on the weekends - I totally go over my limit of 1,200!!!!! Is it because I can't plan my meals ahead of time? And I can't find a lot of time to exercise. So I gained a pound back from the 3 I've lost. Wonderful. Any suggestions to help me would be greatly…

The Wii Fit Body Test is way off!!!!!!!!
Okay, so I use Wii Fit to exercise sometimes and they have this thing called a body test that ways you and checks out your balance and everything. For everyone who has Wii Fit, have you guys noticed that the weight thing is waaaaaay off, or is it just me? One day it said I lost 4 pounds and the next day, it said I gained…

oh no. ohnohnoohno . . .
I had -639 calories, -108 carbs, -5 protein, -85 sugar, and -15 fiber in yesterday's food diary (well actually I accidentally added them under today and I don't know how to fix it). What's more is, this is my NET food intake, AFTER I exercised! Suddenly, it's so easy to go over. How can I prevent this from happening?

300 calories a day?!?!?!
I just looked at my nutrition report for the last 7 days and it said on Saturday I only ate 300 calories. But that's NOT TRUE!!!! Then I looked at my actual food diary for that day and it said I had ate 700-something calories but burned 400-something. I know that's not a lot of calories to consume anyway, but I think I…
