Calories by meal
Has anyone tried eating more in the morning and tapering off toward dinner / evening? I thought about giving this a try to maximize my weight loss. Or is just a myth? Right now I am averaging almost 50% of my daily calories on dinner and evening snacks. (Although I am not really snacking that much after dinner lately). But…

Plant-Based Anyone?
I am looking to start a group or have friends who are doing the plant-based approach to their diet. I had a consultation with a nutritionist the other day that enlightened me on the subject.

How many net calories should be my minium?
I would like to lose at least 15 more pounds by Thanksgiving. According to a BMR calculator I found online, I should consume 1700 calories to maintain my weight (with no exercise) based on my age, height and weight. That means to lose a healthy 2 lbs per week...I need to save 7000 calories per week to lose at that rate.…

As an example, if I am to eat 1500 calories per day...how many calories should I have for each meal and should I eat in between…

HIIT for an old lady like me :-)
I have been reading the benefits of HIIT and am wanting to give it a try but I am a little intimidated. It isn't that I am afraid to workout...I have been doing so off & on for years. I am currently working out 5-6 days per week but I feel like I need to get more out of it. The problem is that I have bad knees so cranking…

Mini Plateaus
I am really intrigued and still trying to "figure out" why even without changing a thing and being a diligent on my plan, that I am experiencing weekly plateaus.

Wheat Belly
Has anyone out there read this book by Dr. William Davis and/or followed its principles of eliminating wheat from your diet? If so, what is your experience? I have a friend who swears by it and I see it is highly recommended on Amazon. But it means a complete overhaul of my diet which is a good thing?!? Would be interested…

Hi everyone!
Hi ladies! I am new to this group and want to share my story. I started back on MFP 3 weeks ago today. I have logged everything and have successfully lost around 10 lbs.
