Aldi grocery store - favorite foods!
I recently moved and a new co-worker of mine suggested a store called Aldi's. I had never heard of it but I gave it a try a few weeks ago and I am SO happy I discovered it!

We are getting married in an area where neither of our churches are. My…

When do you eat your calories? How to break it down?...

What I mean is, I get 1200 a day and I usually break it down to about 150-200 for breakfast 200-300 for lunch and then 2 snacks of about 100 cals. When it comes time for dinner I make something (healthy) based on how many I have left AND if I have exercise…

Last week I kept my HRM on the for my weight lifting sessions at the gym and usually burned around 300 calories in about 45-60 minutes. Why doesn't MFP want to acknowledge these calories? I…

Through out the years I have collected A LOT of fitness "stuff" and I am wondering if I have too many things to choose from and maybe that is causing problems for me!
