Eating habits with kids
Hi there, for me it was always easy to control what I eat during the day, doing two low calorie days in a week and exercise regularly.

Does sex count as exercise?
I'm just wondering if I can log sex as exercise. Do some of you log it? Depending on how sporty your sex is, it burns up to 150kcl in 15 minutes. that's quiet as good as doing a walk or so. What do yout think?

Low in calories, high in protein and vegetarian - any tipps?
Hi there, does someone have a tipp for something filling to eat that's low in calories and high in protein? It must be really low in calories, because it's for my fasting day and there are only 200 calories for lunch. At the moment I always eat veggies, but they don't keep me full for the rest of the afternoon. Please only…

My weight loss curve
Slow, but steady! My loss is happening very slowly, but in the overall year report, you can see it's happening. With a lots of ups and downs my weight loss journey looks like a trip on the rollercoaster. But hey, at the end it counts where the wagon stops - hopefully on the ground level (= my weight loss goal!). Show me…

Bread is not bad
You can hear it all the time - here on MFP and in the media - Bread is bad (so is pasta, potatos and rice). But that's not really true. It depends on what kind of bread (pasta, rice, etc.) you eat. Probably the bread thing is even more an american problem or myth, because most of the American bread is white bread which is…

Thinking about food all the time
I was always a food person - like my dad. We like good food and like to eat. And if it's tast good, we can eat tons of it. Since I'm here to control my portions I think about food - what can I eat next - all the time. I calculate the whole days with my calories to check what I can possibly eat next. Hate it. It feels like…

5:2 fasting and exercise calories
Hi there, I need some advice. I'm doing a 5:2 fasting - so I eat on two days of the week only 500 calories (each day). I'm not sure what to do when I'm exercising on these days - should I eat the calories back even when I'm one a fast? For example today I only ate 500 calories and burned in my exercises around 850…

Anyone else doing TRX?
Hi there, I'm a big fan of TRX and do it as often as I can at the gym. But I realized that TRX is not in the exercise database, so I can't realy log it. I also seems to be difficult to find a website, that could tell me how many calories TRX burns. Of course there's never an exact number, because everybody is different and…

Sitting Will Kill You
Sitting is slowly but surely killing us just about scared every cubicle monkey and their bosses straight out of their desk chairs. Sitting is not only making us fat, lazy, and weak (all bummers) — it's shaving precious years off of our desk-bound lifespans: men who sit six hours a day are 20 percent more likely to die than…

Alcohol in food
I have a question. When I cook with alcohol, for example wine, vodka or wiskey, the alcohol vanishes when you cook it - only the tast stays. But what happen to the calories - do they stay or vanish too?

What's your prejudice?
