To all the "nice guys"
"Girls just don't like nice guys. I guess they just like a**holes." I hear this a lot and I'm sure a lot of other women have as well. I take offense to this. It implies women are stupid when it comes to dating. Sure there are some of us who see a guy with a wife beater and a mullet and think, "Mmmm...there's a hottie right…

How/when do you log your meals?
I started out logging what I eat as I eat it, but then I found that I was running out of calories well before dinner and I ate poorly. So I've decided to plan my meals ahead of time and put them in my diary in the morning and only eat what I put in. Does anyone else do this? Is it effective?

Who knew?
I just started working out daily about 5 days ago. I outdid myself and worked out pretty intensely for an hour the first day, 45 minutes the 2nd and 30 minutes the third. The reason I decreased my work out times those days was because after the first day, I was so sore I could hardly get out of bed in the morning.…

So, are eggs good or bad?
Every once in a while the FDA comes out and says eggs are good. Then they say they're bad, then it's back to good. So, which is it?

Would it be healthy to lose a dress size in a month?
I'm not sure how much weight I'd have to lose, but I have a formal dinner coming up in March and I the dress I want to order only comes in size 12 and smaller. I'm a 14. Since I'm already working on losing weight, I figure I should be able to lose enough to fit the dress by the 24th of March. I've never had to lose weight,…

Need help creating a "menu"
I've been trying to make a weekly menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner for myself and dinner for the hubs and toddler. I don't want to have to make myself a separate meal for myself when it comes to dinner, so I want to make something a picky 2-1/2 year old will eat.

Diet "Assistance"?
Has anyone used things Like Nutrisystem or Alli ? I know it's better to do it on your own but I'm having a hard time not craving crap and eating everything in sight. I just want to know if anyone has had any success with either of them.

How do I make a signature?
Just wondering how I put my weightloss tracker on all my posts. Thanks for the help!

How do heart rate monitors work?
Do they tell you how many calories you burn or do you have to calculate it on your own? Any suggestions for a good one? I'm looking at buying one soon.

I never realized...
This site is really making me see how poorly I eat. I'm embarassed by my diary yesterday. I stayed within my calories, but I had way too many carbs and way too much sodium. I know it's a slow change, but I need to work on that.

How often do you weigh in?
I try to every day. I know weight fluctuates, but I like seeing results as I go. Is that weird? Oh. I also try to weigh in at the same time every day.

Burpees
How can I log burpees in my exercise log? I can't find them in cardio or strength. Am I spelling it wrong? If it's not in there, does anyone know how many calories you burn doing them so I can add it?

No time to exercise
I have a very busy schedule between work, kids (I have a 2-1/2 year old and a 2 month old) and pets, I barely have time to hop in the shower every day. Does anyone have good suggestions for exercises I can do if I only have a few minutes to spare? Something high intensity so I burn more calories... Also, is there a way to…

Want some friends :-)
I just started using the website (I've been using MFP on my phone for a long time, unsuccessfully) and I'd like to make some friends to kick my butt if I fall off my routine.

Logging my "juicing"
My husband bought me a Jack LaLanne juicer for an early Christmas present. How would I log juices and pulp from a juicer? I "juice" once or twice a day. I make muffins with pulp from apple, carrot and/or cranberry juice and add veggie pulp to almost every meal for added fiber and nutrients. The only thing I can find about…

I need some motivation
I've had the myfitnesspal app on my phone for about 18 months and I've only used it sporadically. I'm 14 pounds heavier than when I started (I just had a baby 2 months ago, but I was already heavier than when I started "using" MFP before I got pregnant). My main issues are will power, motivation and knowing how to properly…
