Crawling back on the bandwagon kicking and screaming
Hi, I have basically not watched what I ate nor did much exercise in a good year and my body certainly shows it. I had been doing LCHF for awhile and then we had some family members move in with us and I knew that it just wouldn't work any more so I stopped. They moved out after six months and I just never got back…

Fitbit Flex or Jawbone Up?
I am considering purchasing either a Fitbit Flex or Jawbone Up and would like to know if anyone has experience with both of these? I've read reviews and it seems that they are about a toss up as far as I have seen. I have a Body Media Fit Link that I love, but it started breaking me out so I had to stop using it. I would…

Getting back on the bandwagon
Hi, I've been on MFP for a few years and had gotten down to a weight I was comfortable with (although technically slightly in the overweight BMI), but have lost my way. I've gained about 15 pounds and want to get it off and keep it off!! Last year I had gotten a Body Media Fit and wore it religiously. Loved that it…

No resting burn
I got my Up on Sunday and have been using it and logging my food into MFP. Each time I update I see my steps and can see my active calorie burn, but the resting burn stays at zero. I have my user information set up. Any idea why this would not update?

Accuracy while biking
Yesterday I went on a bike ride for just over an hour and a half. The Map My Ride program showed that I should have burned over 1,000 calories, but the BMF showed that I was only doing vigorous activity for 12 minutes and didn't burn anywhere close to that many calories. I realize that the armband looks at movement of your…

Oh no, I'm going the wrong way!
I got my BMF and fell in love with it immediately as I started dropping pounds by using the numbers suggested. Actually, in the beginning I was not meeting my eating goal, but I kept tweaking my food intake to meet that goal. Well, I lost 3.8 pounds in about 2 weeks, but then a strange thing happened - I have gained 1.6…

Got my BMF today and I'm confused
I have joined MFP within the last couple of weeks and I've done a pretty good job of logging my food and exercise. In the past I've used Spark People and kept up with things well, but would get frustrated as I would show that I should be losing weight according to their calculations and I would plateau for weeks on end. I…

It Worked!!
My BMF just came this week. I've been logging on MFP for a few weeks and dropped pounds the first week, but then stopped. This has been typical for me and very frustrating. According to the numbers I should have been losing. This is what prompted me to buy the BMF in the first place. I got it set up without much problem…
