Steps Vs Distance?
Helli. I've been walking more lately just to do s bit more and have lately used my Fossil Collider to track things.

MFP or TDEE -20?
I've been on MFP for just a month. I'm improving, and I'm also doing a bit of cardio and now strength training. However, I read so much about MFP calories Vs TDEE - 20% that now I don't know what to do! MFP has been working for me, but I've read other people have plateaued (sorry for the misspelling, English is not my…

We tried this today and it turned out great. This was a mix of two different recipes I read (one here I think and one somewhere else on the Internet). We had VERY GENEROUS serving sizes and it is still only 462 calories per serving!!! You can see a photo (which shows the large serving size) here:…

What is the best approach?
Hi everyone. I'm new here. I'm about 220lbs and am about 40lbs overweight :-( This happened before but I was younger (20s and now I am in my 30s) and that time I lost the weight easily by "eating better". Now I am not that good at it and hope tracking my food and exercising will help. Here's the thing: what is the best…
