Guilty admission and small rant
I've been single for a few years now, I don't get out much, I'm shy, etc. Sooo, I joined a dating site awhile back. On the dating profile section for pics I made sure I posted a full body shot so guys understood I was an obese woman. Mind you I don't have many of those, 3-4 max. In addition I also state in my info that Im…

I'd love to hear everyone's recent NSV
Or even not so recent! What was your first NSV, your most recent, most memorable? I didn't think to do measurements when starting this journey so I don't want to start now.

Pandora radio with runtastic ?
Anyone run these two at the same time? If so, did/do you have any issues? I used them together twice today, the first time my mph was posted wrong and the second time runtastic added 1000 cal burn to my expected burn. Didn't know if this was a coincident or a glitch

Weight of a toddler
It amazes me how I can lose enough weight to equal an 18 month old and still not see the difference. It feels great seeing the numbers add up, it really does especially since the last few weeks have been a struggle, but in turn its also a slight downer that I can't physically see the difference. For those that have been…

Questions for the fitbit users
I'm looking not getting one in the next month or two and had a few questions.... 1. The previous pedometers I've tried always counted steps wrong because of the excess weight... The extra jiggles I guess... Does fitbit count it better? 2. Which fitbit are you using? I'm trying to decide between the fitbit one and the…

MFP calorie goals versus personal calorie goals
For those that have lowered their calorie goal from the one set by MFP, how did you choose the calorie goal you set? Ive noticed people in my weight range with a wide variety of calorie goals and Im wondering if I should re-evaluate mine.
