Body Media and MFP, Past 2 weeks stats
Got my Body Media Link armband about 3 weeks ago, and absolutely loving it. I keep it on as much as possible, averaging 20+ hours a day with it on. I have been very diligent in my food logging, logging every thing that goes in my food hole, save a Coke Zero here or there. I only weigh in on Mondays, so here are my numbers…

Total calories vs. calorie deficit
I was wondering which has more of an impact on your metabloism. Which is more likely to start a plateau? I'm a bigger guy with a highly active job, so there can be as much as a 1800 calorie burn difference between a work day and an off day.

I'm thinking about getting 3lbs gloves. Just…

Some bro's(or gals) to fight the battle of the bulge with.
First off, I'm not looking for a cheerleader :-) Just looking to make a few friends that may be in a similar situation as myself, and willing to share some ideas on how to fight the good fight. I'm about a month in on MFP, and have had some good results so far. But I've been here before, had diets work for a while, then I…

3000 calories a day!?!?
I'm new to counting calories and have done a lot of reading on the subject, but still feel confused. I'm a 32 y/o male, 5'10" 260lbs. I have a very active job, usually on my feet and moving 10-12 hours a day. I recently got a Body Media armband and on an average work day I'm showing about 4000 calories burned. So from what…
