Springer knee?
Hi guys. Bad knees run in my family, and after years of being obese, my joints have really taken a toll. Furthermore my joints are hypermobile, so it's very easy for me to get injuries when working out, and I can never feel any uncomfort when working out, like you would, if you do something "wrong". In summer I decided to…

A question about butter/oil
Hi guys. So the last 2,5 years while I've been on my weightloss journey, I've pretty much stopped cooking meat on the pan with oil or butter, because I wanna stay away from oil and butter as much as possible. I always cook my meat in the oven, which is fine, but come on, let's be honest - it's just not as good as a…

Is honey better than sugar?
Hi guys. I eat a looooot of oatmeal(sometimes twice a day haha), and I do like my oatmeal really sweet. I don't have any other unnatural sugar on a normal day, so I've always just accepted that I can have those tbsp of sugar with my oatmeal. I wanna try to cut down on the sugar, and I was thinking of using honey instead,…

Do you track calories before or after you've had your meal?
I've been wondering about this for a bit. How many of y'all plan ahead? Do you think there's any negative side to doing so? I do it, because I'm scared of eating too much and ruining the balance of my meals. Hate to end up with too few calories for dinner.

Does your carb intake really matter if....
Hi guys. Another stupid question, please forgive me, but I just really would like an answers to this question.

From good to bad shape
Hi guys. Quick and weird question, but here we go: I've been in a good shape the last year or so, but after almost 2 months of break(only exercising 1-2 times a week), I've found that my shape has gone really bad, which is only natural. I've always burned about 100 kcal pr. 10 minutes, and my heartrate is pretty much at…

Feeling cold ALL the time
Hi guys. A funny question for you. I've been feeling really cold all the time, the last year or so, even in the summertime when there's plenty of sun. My doctor told me that it might be because I don't have enough vitamin B, so I've been taking vitamin supplements, but it hasn't helped at all. I've been thinking about, if…

WW online vs. MFP
Hi guys. In january 2012 I started on WW and I lost 65 lbs in 14 months! When my progress started to slow down, I decided to switch from WW to MFP. MFP hasn't been good for me at all, as I became obsessed with my diet, in a way that I didn't with WW. It has been a lot harder than WW too, since you need to track EVERYTHING,…

Oatmeal with (white) sugar?
Hi guys. Just recently I tried oatmeal, and I LOVE IT! The thing is, I only like it topped with white sugar and cinnamon, and we all know that sugar isn't good for you. I eat a big bowl for breakfast(70 gram oats, 160 gram skim milk and 15 g sugar) and I've actually liked it so much, that I've had every day for a week. My…

Net calories - is this right?

If I exercise and burn off 500 kcal, I'll have…
