New user from Syracuse, NY
Hey guys! I've technically been a user of Myfitnesspal for several months, but I'm just not getting into using the website along with the phone app. I'm looking to add local friends on here that will give me motivation. Sometimes I just need people to tell me that I gotta eat healthy and exercise even if I don't want to.…

Eggplant Lasagna (low carb!)
So I got a nice eggplant at the farmer's market yesterday and started searching for recipes. I found this and immediately decided that I need to make it. I, personally, will be replacing the mushrooms with other veggies since both the boyfriend and I dislike mushrooms. I also plan on using some homemade sauce so I can cut…

Need friends that are willing to provide feedback
Hey guys. So I've been on MFP for almost a year now. In that time, I've figured out what it is about the site that helps me succeed. One of the biggest things is the people. My diary is completely public and I try to be as transparent as possible because I know that for me, if I know that others can see what I'm doing, I'm…

Cauliflower pizza dough for the Cauliflower hater?
Hey y'all. Quick question. Has anyone tried the whole "using cauliflower as bread" thing? I've seen it on Pintrest a ton of times, but I haven't tried any of the recipes yet because... well.. I hate cauliflower. So does my boyfriend. Does it just taste like cauliflower in the shape of dough? Or does it really do a good job…

Sweet potato recipes!
Hey y'all! Randomly bought some sweet potatoes (as I am wont to do), and now I need ideas of what to do with them! I was thinking a gratin since I know how to make that healthily, but I was looking for recipes (to get flavor ideas), and they were all sweet! I'm looking for savory recipes (though I sure won't turn down any…

Celiac Disease/gluten intolerance help
Hey guys, So to make a long story short, I have a sneaking feeling that I may have some form of gluten intolerance. I have 97% of the common symptoms and while I don't want to jump to any conclusions, I figure the easiest way to confirm my intuition is to try cutting gluten out for awhile and see if any of the symptoms go…

Protein sources?
So here's the gist guys: I need to get more protein in my diet. I've been trying, but I'm still coming up short. The major issue is that I don't really eat meat. I eat chicken sometimes, but I'm super picky about how it's cooked. I eat plenty of beans, greek yogurt, peanut butter (powdered), cheese, etc. I don't drink milk…

Need inspiration and motivation
I usually don't have any problem getting my *kitten* moving because the thing that spurred me to get healthy (the death of a friend), is enough to get me going. Not tonight. Last night, I couldn't get to sleep until after 5am. I was then woken at 9am by my tendinitis acting up (guess I did too much with the weights last…

Tofu Parmigiana Recipe
For the tofu lovers, skeptics and even the tofu haters in your life. This recipe is AWESOME! I highly recommend it. 1. Press tofu between some paper towels with something heavy on top of it. This gets out the excess moisture and makes it easier to handle. 2. Cut block of tofu into 4 pieces, horizontally. If you cut them…

MyFitnessPal Recipes
Hey guys and gals! Can y'all link me to some of the recipes you've posted/used on your myfitnesspal? I have a couple of my own, but I'd love to have a bunch of other ones that I don't have to enter in from another website. I would link to the few recipes I've entered into the site, but I can't figure out how! Ingredients…
