I don't understand 30 Day Exercise Challenges
I get the idea of progressive overload and accountability.... but what substantial benefit do you get from training the same muscle group every single day especially on a caloric deficit? Wouldn't a 30 day challenge be better if it were drinking a full 8 glasses of water?

Found an article on Microwave Mug Meals
http://www.buzzfeed.com/arielknutson/delicious-snacks-in-a-mug thought you may enjoy this.. and I suppose if you're a hippie obviously the microwaves will turn us into cancerous super human mutants.

Your oven is a good example of BMR and TDEE
If a recipe requires you to bake X item for 20 minutes at 200 turning your oven to 600 degrees will not cook it same/properly in 6.66 minutes.

Favorite things to buy at the store (food/drink/other)
I was just curious to see what people's "staple" diets are. I cook with whey these days more than just using them as shakes as I did before. The things I buy from stores now are mostly: -Sweet potatoes -Eggs -Unsweetened coconut milk -Cottage Cheese -Yogurt -Quest Bars -Generic Grape "water enhancer" -Ak-Mak sesame…

Do you online shop? I figured you would if you use
MFP... are you an Amazon(ian)? I'm curious to see the last items you bought. I just decided to copy and paste all my purchases since the beginning of the year (just from Amazon) and it kind of makes your eyes O.o to look back on what you've bought, would buy again, or AVOID at all costs! I will say that even though Amazon…

The old me would've never spent over 200 dollars..
on electric shaving tools, but I felt it was time... What's something that you never thought you'd buy, but somewhere a long the way you've changed your mind. I never thought I'd... Buy: -Athletic tank tops -Buy products from GNC (Quest Bars are cheaper there than anywhere else if you know how to stack discounts) Use a…

I'm conflicted about "Fat Acceptance" morally.. I find
everyone beautiful in their own way. I think being content and happy with who you are is important, but self improvement is also healthy for a person to grow and mature... When I see I don't know what to think... I really want to be like "YOU GO GIRL!" but the other half of me is going.. :\ hmmmmmmmmmmm

Added Sugar and how its impacted your success
Just wondered if anyone has noticed added sugar destroying their progress. I hopefully want to stay away from talking about fruit sugars etc... everyone knows that fruits contain fiber and micro-nutrients which are healthful. I've never thought weight loss was/is only about a calorie in and out. I think macro and micro…

Don't you love finding out a new exercise to add?
and it absolutely destroys you... Decided to start super setting shoulders into my circuit. -_- I could see many people losing weight from this exercise because they wouldn't be able to pick up a fork to eat anything afterwards.

Do you log your sex life into MFP?
Calories in vs Calories out.

Are forums a lazy persons way not to research?
I looked through My Fitness Pal's tutorials, the FAQs, and watched Youtube videos on features; it answered a lot of my questions. I've found out an eating schedule that works for me through trial and error: adjusting for what works best for me. I am subscribed to fitness channels on Youtube, read up on studies about…

Anyone not enjoy Planet Fitness ads?
I've heard so many bad stories about that gym, but when I heard they have pizza, donuts, etc. once a week for members while discouraging "powerlifts" like deadlifts I knew that it's not my type of gym.

Thoughts on using pre-workouts while losing weight
A lot of people go with the idea of using pre-workouts sporadically or cycling through different ones with different ingredients so your body doesn't get used to the same stimulant. I just don't know if it's really worth the investment for weight loss even while lifting if you generally have decent energy and drive at the…

Do you really carry most of your weight in your stomach?
... I'm not sure if a majority of these claims are true. Yes, it may be the most obvious part of you, but is that an excuse people tell themselves and others? Stubborn belly fat is very common, but the "let's get healthy" challenge at work has almost done the reverse motivation wise for me. Some people are choosing to quit…
