Hi....again!
I joined MFP back in June or July and I have been off the wagon since Oct or so...ever since I was not able to swim at my gym anymore. I tried the Atkins diet in Nov and I was really impressed with the weight I lost during induction phase (6 pounds) and then life happened and I didn't stick to it. I'm back and I would like…

I know I'm not a failure!
I've been thinking about this a lot lately and thought I would share in case someone out there is going through the same thing. I started MFP on 2/14/12.

My walk is at a brisk pace (I'm breathing hard) and it is up and down small hills and parking lots. How should I log this? I want to make…

CHEESE!!!! Yum!!!
I have a question for my fellow cheese-lovers out there. Cheese is one of my favorite things to eat and one of the few things I can't stick to a serving size on, whether I'm having a few slices as a snack or sprinkling some on my salad. I absolutely refuse to eat low-fat cheese - I hate the taste and cheese is my one…

Hello, I just joined yesterday so this might have been answered already. I have a question about how some of the calories are calculated. I entered in 2 pieces of Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate with Almonds nuggets and it is show 50 calories per 1 piece. I looked at the bag yesterday and a serving size is 4 pieces for…

First day - Hello!
Hi, I'm Rachel and I just joined MFP today. I have been overweight for the past 6 years or so. I started having foot pain in the Navy and stopped running and working out.
