5K Foam Fest
Has anyone participated in the 5K Foam Fest? I am thinking about registering for the New England one in June. It seems like a lot of fun. I have never participated in a 5K or any type of obstacle course, so I have the fear that I will be the last one to complete it, but I think I am just going to suck it up and do it!…

1 Year Progess!
A year ago today I joined MFP. I began logging all of my food on the 5/14 and never looked back. It's crazy how fast this year has gone by and how much has changed. I wasn't really sure what to expect at first, but I am very glad to have found MFP. I would like to lose another 40 or so pounds. Here is my progress so far:…

Question about weights
Can you still achieve the same results using the weight machines at the gym versus free weights? I have a membership at planet fitness and they don't have free weights. I want to lose weight, but I also want to build muscle. I do understand that free weights gives you a lot more freedom with the type of exercises you can…

Weight loss cycles?
I am not sure what a good name for it would be, but for now I will call it a weight loss cycle. Over the past 2 months I have noticed a trend....I will lose weight quickly for 2 weeks (about 5 lbs a week) and then the next 2 weeks, nothing. I am not doing anything different than I am doing on the 2 weeks I lose. I have…

Hair Loss
I know the average person losses about 100 hairs a day and with my hair being long, the "shedding" is going to be more noticeable, but I feel like I am losing too much hair. I have felt like this for 5+ months. My hair dresser says she doesn't notice any bald spots but I feel that my hair is thinner. :sad: A co-worker…

Favorite Peanut Butter
What is your favorite brand of PB? I recently bought Skippy chunky and I am not a huge fan of it. Chunky PB use to be my favorite. Not sure if I prefer creamy now or if I just don't like Skippy.

Not logging when you don't eat well
The point of logging your foods/drinks into your diary daily is for you to see what you are consuming a day. I see so many people logging days they think are "good days" and on days where they eat out, eat too much, or go way over calories, they do not log. Not logging doesn't mean it didn't happen. You are only harming…

Cramps from water?
I have always loved water and I tend to drink a lot of it. I prefer my water to be cold or icy. The past couple of weeks I have been getting strong, short lived (a few seconds) cramps when I drink water. I thought that maybe the water was too cold, or if I had just eaten something it was due to the change in temperatures,…

Are you calorie obsessed?
Sometimes I feel like I am calorie obsessed. I always check calorie content before I eat something and I feel like I constantly have calories on my mind. I feel the need to measure and weigh everything so I know exactly what I am consuming. I have turned away silly things like a mint because I didn't want to waste a small…

Hormones and weight loss
I am not sure if anyone is able to help me with this or has experience. I had to take a hormone pill (progesterone) for 10 days a month for 3 mos and I also currently have to take iron (until my levels are back to normal). I was started on the hormone the beginning of May. I started using MFP almost a month ago and have…

What a difference...
So for the past 2 weeks I have not been eating crap! Mornings I have fruit and egg whites, lunch is salad, and dinner is usually chicken and veggies or something similar. Today I had a cookout and I had some beans, a little bit of clam rice, and some crab and OMG the salt was killing me. I don't cook with salt and I don't…

Walden Farmss No Calorie items
While are the grocery store today I saw some no calorie sauces (chocolate, caramel, apple butter, ect). They have no cals, no carbs, and no sugar. Has anyone ever tried them? I looked at reviews and they seem very mixed. My concern is all of the crap they must but in the products to keep them calorie free.

What's your go-to snack?
What is your go to snack when you are feeling a bit hungry and it's not meal time yet? Lately, my choice has been plain popcorn. I usually snack on a half of a bag throughout the day at work...all for about 70 calories :)
