Confused about the calculations in MFP
I am a 37 year old male who wants to lose a few pounds. My job is a sedentary job and I am not sure how much I will work out during the week. I am making an effort to work out every day and so far I am on track. I am concerned about the numbers that MFP suggests for me. Going through the goals and entering different…

Cauliflower Pizza Crust
I cannot think of a better way to ruin a perfectly delicious pizza. In all seriousness though, I tried to make one yesterday, not only did the "crust" stick to the pan, getting completely ripped apart when I tried to move it, but it also tore my stomach up. I would rather spend the hour on an elliptical machine so I could…

Has everyone been recalculating your calories as you lose we
I was about 181 when I started on the site. I had dropped from 197 to that weight before I found the app on my phone. When I set up my account and I and I entered my stats, MFP gave me a 1430 goal for my calories. 9 lbs later and I went in and adjusted my goals and recalculated and my new daily intake goal is 1360 or…

I don't understand what goes on...help!!!
Why does it seem like I enjoy hearing me talk more than other people enjoy it? I feel like I sometimes have some very insightful suggestions, but very often only I find it to be the case.

How quickly do people think they gain muscle weight?
I might be way off on this, but I don't think that I am. I go through these forums and read what people are posting and it seems crazy to me. People in here, mostly women, will be upset about not dropping weight. They are looking for the scale to tell them that they have lost a pound or two and they are discouraged or…

Display on Polar FT7 is screwy!!1
I just got a Polar FT7 HRM. I like how it looks and since I didn't already own a watch, I figured I might as well get the slick black and red one. I have been wearing it for 2 days and the watch function of it is fine. Today I used it for a cardio session and it transmits everything fine, records all my data, does exactly…

P90X dvds freeze or won't play
I bought a set of P90X dvds. The packaging looked completely legit and it comes with all the manuals and guides and calendars. The dvd's are in a little cardboard booklet with plastic sleeves, so everything leads me to believe that they are not bootlegs. I bought them from a guy who claimed to have gotten it for his…

Lean Cuisine Roasted Turkey Breast with Spiced Apples...for
IS AMAZING!!!! I just ate this 300 calorie meal and wished that I had another box of it lying around. Not because I am hungry and I want to eat more to feel full, but because it tastes so friggin good. I could eat that meal on the regular.

Has anyone made a good pullup bar to fit big moulding?
I have an old house with super thick molding. I want to do this P90X business, but I dont want to damage my doorframes. I have seen people building different contraptions to you but I am wondering how important different grips are for doing the pullups. Also, how much weight do you think PVC will hold for some of these…

Your views on free weekends or free days?
There are some foods that I LOVE to eat that would definitely NOT be considered healthy food. I am neurotic about dieting and eating healthy and my brain is/has never been good at doing anything in moderation. I would never let myself eat a chicken wing if I was on a full-time healthy lifestyle kick. In order to maintain…

ACK!! Im not getting enough calories
I am not happy about this. I have severe control issues that really get out of control when dealing with food. I feel like I am eating enough, but according to this calculator I am not. Logically, I can see that I am not. Emotionally, I feel right on target. I ended my day like 400 calories short yesterday. Today I am on…

New to this site...just a question without checking the enti
I have been reading through a few forums on here and have noticed people mentioning their weigh-in practices. I just wanted to get a general idea in one spot of how, when, how often, people do their weigh-ins. Also, I wouldn't mind hearing if you have any weird rituals before stepping on the scale....guess I'm just trying…
