How to account for work activity?
Just wanting some opinions on how other people would handle things. I work a couple of jobs where the activity level is a lot higher then my more "normal" levels. As such, I still set my activity to sedentary as I do not work these jobs every day and as such can't count on all my days being at those levels. So how should I…

Need sources for meal timing myth

It feels as if the tendons are super tight and not stretching any. This happens even if I try and stretch them out before starting. It keeps me…

Figuring out Calories
Hey all! So, I have a quick question that I am hoping to get some advice about. How do you figure out calories for items where you don't have a real idea on how much of any sort of ingredient? Like for something that is already prepared such as at a Deli case. Do you use the database to find an equivalent? For example, I…

New and ready to do this...
Hey all! I was given the suggestion of MFP by some friends on another message board when I mentioned I needed to change my diet and lifestyle for the better. So, I headed on over here, set up my profile, and started yesterday to keep track of my eating and exercise. I am so far loving the ability to track all of this and…
