easy breakfast scrambles
I just made (well, for the third day in a row :) the most delicious breakfast scramble. I start with a carton of egg whiles and a non-stick pan so I don't worry about greasing the pan (though if i had to, i'd use the olive oil spray). 3 Egg Whites 51 calories 1/4 Avocado 60 calories 1/4 cup Trader Joe's - Cottage Cheese…

Half Marathon?
So I'm new to this running thing. It was always that one thing I couldn't do, so now I really want to do it. A couple weeks ago I ran in my first official 5k. Now some of my friends are signing up to run a half marathon at the end of July. I have found a few 10 week training programs online that seem reasonable -- up your…

MFP sodium levels
Does anyone know why MFP suggests 2500 mg of sodium? I just came from a nutrition lecture where they basically said no one should be above 2300 and that for many if not most people trying to lose weight (especially those with blood pressure concerns or kidney disease) it should be significantly less. Just curious if anyone…

It's a PBS video called "fat" talking about all the factors and how much we don't understand as well as talking with a few different people about how weight effects them. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/takeonestep/fat/index.html It…

visible weight loss?
I've lost about 10lbs (which is the number where I said to myself that I would believe that this is really working and not just water weight) but I don't feel any different.

Hope this works!
Hi all I'm new here. Started on Sunday and have had a great week. I feel a little compulsive and am not sure if I should worry if I'm under calories some days. I try to eat if I ever feel like my blood sugar is actually dropping so am snacking throughout the day despite staying around 1200 calories. I'm also a little…
