Phone App
The MFP phone app has a section for nutrition tracking so it gives me my daily nutrient details but I seem to be having a tough time finding the nutrition tracking on the website. Does anyone know where to find it on the site?

Personality?
I know this has nothing to d with losing weight or getting in shape but I don't have anyone to talk to about this, so I was hoping someone might be able to give me some insight.

Daily Calorie Intake Related To Sleep
I have been having trouble getting a good night sleep for weeks now. One friend suggested that perhaps it has to do with the amount of calories I eat during the day. From 8am-6pm I eat both breakfast and lunch and it adds to usually around 500 calories for both and then when I get home at 7pm I eat supper and then eat…

My First Year Of MFP
My lifestyle change started out January 2012 when I no longer liked who I was. When I found out about MFP I had zero physical exercise level but I started out by trying 30 Day Shred which is pretty good and I'm not going to lie I have still yet to finish the whole 30 days but thankfully I have found running with help from…

First 5K Race
I ran my first 5K race this morning and decided to do the Color Run. It was an amazing experience and possible the start to my running life. I ended up finishing the run in 29 minutes and 30 seconds but I was unable to run the whole thing. I made it to the 3K mark and had to slow down to a walk for 20 seconds then stopped…

Race Preparation
Hi all, I am currently doing C25K and i'm on week 7. My third run day is Friday for the 25 minute run, but I am unsure if I should actually do it with having my first 5K run Sunday morning.

Weight loss and health
I thought when you lost weight and got healthier you would start to eliminate or lessen health issues. Well not with me it would seem, with the 80 lbs I have dropped I seemed to have got the flip side of the coin. My chiropractor sent me for some x-rays last week and noticed that some of my vertebra are starting to fuse…

Banana storage
Does anyone know the best way to store bananas. I bought some bananas on thurdsday that were almost yellow and today they and pretty much black. It is pretty frustrating if I can only get 4 days before they start to go black. Thanks for any help.

French toast
I thought I would enlighten anyone who would be as clueless as me when making french toast. If trying to cut out some calories don't use a 50/50 split of egg and water. The water makes the bread soggy so when it cooks the egg cooks on the outside but the bread stays soggy on the inside. Now you know.

Running
I have never really ran at all in my adult life although I walk. Last week I decided half way through my walk to try jogging the rest and truth be told I did not feel that great while running. I was hoping anyone could give me some tips or anything to help me with running as my sides and hips hurt when I was done and…

I was hoping someone knows or remembers a chicken recipe the involved putting chicken breasts in a slow cooker and add salsa and ranch powder. I can't remember if there was anything else that needed to be added or what. Thanks in advance for anyone able to help me out.

Hip Pain
I went for my regular 3 Mile walk yesterday afternoon and then last night I went on a drunk 12KM walk. I woke up this morning with incredible hip pain, bad enough it hurts when I walk or lay on my side. I don't know if perhaps I just over did it or not but was wondering if this has happened to anyone else.

My NSV for the day
I went out to get a few new shirts since I am on the job hunt and need something fits me to look presentable. Well I found a golf shirt and took an XL to the fitting room. On my way I thought what the hell and grabbed a Large. Well I ended up getting the large, insert happy dance on the inside. I then went to another store…

For those that know what their final goal is, how did you figure out what you should weigh? I don't have a final goal yet as I don't know what my final weight should be.

Oil spray
I have been following some peoples recipes that require giving your food a light spray with oil before baking it but I really do not like the taste Pam makes when it is on food. I have checked every store in my town for a spray bottle that I can put my own oil into but I have not found one yet. If you do this same thing…

Iron Suppliment
I went to donate blood last week and I was almost denied because the iron test they do came up below the lower acceptable level luckily they tested again and it just passed. Now usually I have a very high iron count but recently I have been eating a lot of chicken and the seldom serving of red meat. I take a multi vitamin…

I was worried
I was pretty worried when the holidays came around, high stress and an increase in consumption of everything, so I stopped weighing myself December 15th as I didn't want to see the scale go up. Yesterday I decided to hope on the scale to see how much I either lost or gained. I stepped on the scale and actually said "no…

No breakfast
For the last few days I haven't been hungry in the morning so I end up skipping breakfast. This is new as I usually have breakfast every day. What do you all do when or if you have this problem? Do you make yourself eat or try to make back the couple hundred calories later in the afternoon or just skip it all together.
