Hot Sauce & Weight-Loss
I'm a big hot sauce fan and started putting the stuff on everything. I also heard it can be good for weight loss cause it can increase your metabolism. Does anyone follow this idea and have a fav hot sauce? My fav at the moment has to be Red Habanero & Black Coffee from Queen Majesty.

Let's Pretend I'm New
I've been on MFP for years and it worked. Then I went MIA for years and recently started gained back some of the weight I lost. Now I'm looking for new friends who aren't afraid to check in on me (and vise-versa) to ensure we're sticking to the goal. A little 'like' on a status goes a long way (I'm only just realizing that…

Blogs?
Do you have one (and care to share)? Is there one that you would recommend? I love blogging and use it more as a diary but I love reading others as well and need some new ones to follow. Personally I use Wordpress but anything is great.

Pizza Time
Can anyone suggest a low fat alternative to a pizza base? The lower the better? I usually have pizza every weekend and I'm not ready to give that tradition up but I need to work around this and make it work for me. Also cheese? I have no idea about any cheese other than mozzarella. Let's just say when it comes to actually…

What's one thing you want to eat?
Whats one thing you want to eat but you know if you go there you have no control to stop? Or maybe you know if you eat it you'll bust your whole healthy/clean eating/diet.. (you get the idea). I think for me it's KFC. Once in a while I'll get an urge to stuff my face. There's no "moderation" with KFC and me. It's all or…

If you could have given the younger you advice...
What would it have been? I think... No, don't get with that dude he's going to waste a large portion of your teenage years. Actually, don't get into any hardcore relationships till you're in your mid 20's. And yes, you should be more rebellious lol. Also don't worry because alot of things you worry about will mean nothing…

How Do You Control Yourself?
How do you handle cravings? Right now I’m really wanting a Red Bull. I haven’t had one for weeks. On the other hand I’m grasping at dinner tonight because Friday and Saturday night meals are usually GO CRAZY nights. My excuse was always “It’s Friday/Saturday night”. I have a set meal that I’m supposed to be eating but I’m…

Has your job played a part in your weight gain?
I work in a call center so that means sitting at a desk for about 7.5 hours. A lot of people I know who have worked here for years actually started the job slim but have slowly gained weight over time. Even I have in the past seeing as you sit and eat and then are locked to that chair for hours afterwards. Boredom eating…

One thing you’re looking forward to wearing?
What’s one thing you’re looking forward to wearing when you reach your goal weight? For me it’s my black skinny jeans again. I miss them and I loved the way I looked in them. It’s been a year and a half since. That thought keeps me motivated.

What to do if you’re a picky eater?
One thing that has messed my diets up is the fact that I don’t like many foods. I try everything but I don’t like a lot. I’ve tried to follow meal plans but I don’t like half of the items on there so I eat even less than what I should be. Can anyone relate or have any tips on how to incorporate food I don’t like but should…

Fav type of protein
What's your fav type of protein and how do you cook it? I recently got into kangaroo meat and love it. I usually marinade it and grill it or just throw on some garlic and herbs. It tastes good any way.

I'm confused about avocados.
I know avocados are high in good fats but as I was trying to log my lunch in my diary the amounts of calories varied so much for a small Hass avocado. I took to Google and searched some sites and it was the same deal. Some saying 140 another one saying 250 for the same thing. How am I supposed to get it right? And is there…

Hey Guys, How many people actually use this app? I think it's great! Does anyone have any people they would recommend to follow or check out? Or how about your own? This doesn't need to be weightloss related.

Not Enough Variety
What can someone do if they are picky eaters? Me, i am pretty bad. I have a bad habit of just not eating because I can't find anything I actually like. I don't have much variety in my diet and thats mostly because I don't like many things and half the things I actually do like I shouldn't be eating. Thankfully with the MFP…

Follow me on Tumblr or Twitter also: http://xxxtiiiaxxx.tumblr.com/ twitter.com/xxxtiiaxxx NOTE: If anyone actually adds me none of my accounts have much to do with weight loss.

Xantrax
Anyone taken it? I did a couple years ago but I'm starting on it again. This is my first day. I've taken 2. Not at the same time though. I took one in the morning and another at lunch. Feeling a little energized and not much of an appetite either. Opinions? And just for the record (before anyone starts the lecture about…

Best Time In LA?
I absolutely love the States. I grew up in Canada and I currently live in Australia but I make it a point to go to the States every couple years. Now that I'm older I can go whenever I want (which I plan to do more regularly). This time last year I was on plane to MO where I spent 2 months with family and then a month in…

Disorderly
I'm wanting some like-minded people as "friends". And by that I mean those people who have went through eating disorders and all that crap. I obviously have been (still am) in that situation and would love to get to know some people who are trying to deal with it by changing (or attempting to change) their eating habits…

WTF! ENERGY DRINKS!
Am I the only one in here completely addicted to them? I cant say how much money I've spent on them but I drink a 'Mother' everyday (except weekends) and those are anywhere from $3.50 - $4 a pop! YES! I know, I could be saving that money but c'mon. When you're addicted it doesn't matter. I cant start my day without one…

Lazy Vs Lazy
What am I suppose to do? I don't really HAVE time to exercise. Honestly! And I'm not really just saying that cause I'm lazy as hell. I know everyone else has jobs but I don't know how to balance work and exercise, at all! I leave for work by 6:45- 8am and by the time I get home it's anywhere between 7- 8:30+. It takes me…
