What Does a Loss of 30 Lbs. Look Like? (Face Pic)
Started MFP the day after the Super Bowl (Feb. 4th) at 229 lbs. with the initial goal to lose 25 lbs. This would get me to where I weighed when I was in college.

Observation and Suggestion on Entering Foods in Database
I've been on MFP for about 2 months now. It's a great app to track calories and exercise but the database can cause frustrations. Most of my frustrations have to do with how people enter foods into the database. Most foods have the brand name as the first term in the food's description. Once you add a food to your diary…
