HCG Diet - Have you tried it?
Hi everyone!! I need to do something different to get my weightloss going again and I was wondering about the HCG diet. A former MFP pal had great success with it, but once he reached his goal, he got out of MFP. If you've tried it, please share your experiences. Did you do injections or drops? Did you follow the meal plan…

Can't get full or satisfied
Okay, here's my problem. I was doing really good for a while. Then my consecutive days streak broke, and after that, I kind of lost focus. I haven't really gained much weight (typical 5 lb. fluctuation), but I'm afraid that soon I will step on the scale and it registers plus 20 pounds. My caloric intake is set for 1300…

I just don't understand....
I don't understand how lettuce, 7 grape tomatoes, a little cucumber, less than half of a sliced egg, onion and a little bit of bacon bits and a half cup of chicken breast adds up to 410 calories and 2200+ mg of sodium. That's what they say the calorie count is for the pot belly's farmhouse salad (no blue cheese, no…

Does it impact your health and fitness goals and activities? How does it impact socially? I can't focus or concentrate on anything for long periods of time, and…

Why are calories burned added to total calories for the day?
Hi!! I shovelled snow today, which burned 262 calories. Why was the 262 added to my daily calorie allottment? Seems to me that if I eat more, then I would gain weight instead of lose weight. Can someone explain why they do this?

Best time for breakfast???
At the very beginning of this journey, I did not eat breakfast. Eating in the morning usually made me sleepy or sluggish. The only constant for me in the mornings is my morning cup of coffee. However, everyone says that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. So, I have started trying to eat a little something in…

Is it a plateau, brick wall or what???
Help!!! I haven't lost any weight in about 6 weeks!!! I've been staying close to my calorie goals, and have even begun exercising more. About 2 weeks or so ago, I input my lower weight, and MFP reset my daily calorie goal from 1380 to 1250 per day. Please feel free to look at my diary. It is getting very frustrating to…

Problem with late night munchies
Does anyone have a remedy for nocturnal munchie madness syndrome (also know as late night munchies disease)? My sister says that even when she goes to bed early she awakens in the wee hours of the morning ready to munch on anything that doesn't move. Help!

New to MFP
Hi!! I've been on MFP for about a week now. Still trying to learn my way around the site. But it has definitely been very helpful in terms of making me take a real hard look at what I'm eating in terms of portion size, calories and fat. Today, I even counted the number of popcorn shrimp I had with my lunch, and used…

Wii - Just Dance and Just Dance 2
Hi!! I was wondering if anyone has used either the Just Dance or Just Dance 2 for the Wii. Do you like it? Does it really help you burn calories? And is it one of the cardio exercises in the MFP database? I want to get moving, and it would help if it was something fun!!
