For Ladies....Is is true or just an excuse??
Ladies--do you think that it is true that we really retain water weight during our periods? Sometimes I wonder if we make all kinds of excuses during that time to eat more / feel ok about the scale going up, etc. I started this morning. (sorry if TMI) and I also got on the scale this morning expecting to see at least a…

Yogurt woes.....
I have been eating Yopait Light and loving it. Much to my dismay, one 6 ounce serving has more that HALF of the sugar I am allowed for the day. I just started tracking my sugar. Until today, I did not realize that even though I usually end the day with carbs to spare, I am going over in sugar EVERY DAY! I thought that…

Have you tried this?
Has anyone tried weight loss aids like OxyElite Pro? My friend says that she and her husband have been taking it and it really suppresses her appetite. I have never tried anything like that, but I am kinda intrigued. Any input?

Shirataki noodles--yes or no??
Have you tried Shirataki noodles? Do you like them? Do they really taste and feel like you are eating pasta? I have heard that they stink! Tell me what you think. I want to try them, but I am almost scared :laugh:

Just tried Vitatop....
I have heard everyone raving about Vitatops, so I had to try one. I got the Deep Chocolate. It was pretty good, but I am not sure that I think it is worth the price. A pack of four was ON SALE for 4.69. I guess it was worth it. When I used to eat Three Musketeers bars all the time, I paid about a dollar each for those. (3…

Why do you use a heart rate monitor?

Have I hurt my 8 year old's self image???

Recently my daughter has said that she is being teased at school and wanted to lose some weight. She and I have been working together to lose weight. We talk about our meals…

Do I REALLY burn that many calories????
I rode my stationary bike at a moderate pace for 10 minutes and MFP said I burned 138 calories. Could that be true? I was pretty shocked. I did not realize that it would be that much. Does anyone know how MFP figured the calories burned?? Is it accurate? THoughts?

what do you think about this?
I make myself drink ALOT of water early in the day (to get it over with). Do you think it matters if you drink most of your fluids at one time, or should it be stretched out over the course of the day? I still drink throught the day of course, but I try to get my REQUIRED water over with quickly. What do you think?

Is it possible to do it without surgery???
It seems that when I hear about someone who has lost a LARGE amount of weight, it turns out that they have had weight loss surgery. Are there any success stories from someone who has done it the old fashioned way?? I need to know if there is HOPE.

Every day I go way over on protein...
I always end the day with lots of carbs and fat to spare, but I am always over in protein. I am not trying to do a low carb diet. Does anyone else go over in protein?

Hello..feeling discouraged before I even get started...
I have tried ten thousand times to lose weight. Sometimes I am successful for a while, but then I always gain it back. I am trying again, but I can't help feeling like "Here we go again...." I started trying to lose weight yesterday (this time). Just found MFP today...hoping it will help. Don't mean to sound like a downer,…
