Eating While Depressed
I'm back on MFP after being gone for quite awhile. However, during that time, I've had a lot of personal issues - one of which is an impending divorce. It should be finalized in October, but I find myself having days of depression where I don't want to eat. Or, days where I seem to eat everything within reach. My softball…

Fitbit Zip
I just got a Fitbit Zip & I'm still learning to use it. When I entered my Zumba activity for 50 minutes based on my height, weight and age that I entered on the Fitbit website, it states that I burned 332 calories.

Adding Food With No Information
So today I had my first piece of cake in, like, a month. The sugar rush I felt almost put me into a diabetic coma. I went to add it to my diary, but of course it wasn't already in the list to pick from. I know the store it was purchased from, but it's from their personal bakery (not a box cake). I have no nutritional…
