Starting Again
Hi everyone! My name is Ally. I'm 29, and I have been a member of mfp for ten years. I have been trying to lose weight off and on for a good portion of those ten years. I am definitely a serial starter. I start, obsess over losing weight, get distracted and start to slack off, then quit. It has happened more times than I…

Daily Accountability Partner
Hey there, I am looking for someone to be my accountability partner. Basically, I want someone who will check in a couple times a day to make sure I am on track with logging meals. And I will try to do the same for you if youd like. I have been trying to lose weight off and on for a very long time, and I am good until I…

Team Challenges
I am looking for a challenge where I can be a part of a team to work toward a group goal in a competition. I was a part of a challenge once where we "sailed" around the world as teams, and so many calories burned by each person within the team each day would move the boat and we raced to the end. It was a great motivator.…

help?
Would someone be willing to help me? I keep over eating and neglecting to log my meals into mfp. Ive been trying to lose weight for three months, but i cant seem to motivate myself enough to log my food which leads to over eating every day. I just need someone who i know will look at my diary daily and remind me when i…

Light Hamburger Buns?
Anyone know of any low calorie hamburger buns? I want to make hamburgers tomorrow, but I don't want one hamburger to have like 500 calories because I'm going to be making mozzarella sticks too.

Calcium?
Does anyone get all of their calcium from whole foods? No supplements or fortified foods. If so, what do you eat every day? I feel like, in order to get enough, I'd have to eat a whole lotta broccoli and kale.

Let the Pounds Fall Week 1 (CLOSED GROUP)
First of all, I figure I better introduce myself. My name is Ally & I'm 21. As far as exercise goes the only things I like to do are ride my bike and swim. I hope this challenge will change my mindset when it comes to exercise because right now I HATE it. I'm hoping this makes exercise fun. And I hope you guys think it's…

Alrighty. So we have a full team now. It's going to be me, fitnessmonthly, MrsFelton2010, my friend Sara (who I have to convince to make a MFP account), and my husband minddragon6. Now we just need a name. So far these are the suggestions: Fall's Fit & Fiery Fall's Fiery Females (idk how the hubby will feel about this lol)…

New Balance N4 HRM
So, I have the N4 and I used it today when I went to work. I ride my bike 5 miles every day to work & then another 5 miles back. Well, I checked my hrm to see how many calories I'd burned once I'd gotten to work, and it said 75.... I don't think that's right. lol Then, on my way back home later on, it still said 75 & never…

Apple Cider Vinegar
Does anyone drink this daily? I've been thinking about trying it since I've been reading good things. I'm a little nervous because I know it tastes awful.

BEANS!
I need more beans! Preferably for lunch. Gotta get me some more protein! So, if you have any awesometastic bean recipes that won't take forever to make (minus the soaking of course!) please stop hogging them all to yourself and share! :happy: Oh yeah, and I'm vegan. So vegan/vegetarian recipes would be nice, but they…

Coco Hydro Instant Coconut Water
I bought this package of Coco Hydro Instant Coconut Water Electrolyte Drink in the original flavor today, and the back of it says: Serving Size Custom Food 22g Calories 5 .... Sodium 7mg blah blah blah But when I looked on MFP to add it to my diary, it says the serving size is 11g and the Sodium is 70mg. I am confused. I…

Breakfast Bowl
Another recipe from hungry-girl.com I love that website! I just had this, and I must say it's pretty good. Instead of the Green Giant Just For One pack, I just steamed some broccoli and mixed in a slice of Kraft American cheese, but lowfat cheese would be even better. Also, instead of frying the Ore-Ida potatoes in oil, I…
