Blue Apron - Nutrition data provided off?
I get Blue Apron and the other day there was one recipe in particular I thought the nutritional data seemed high for so I used MFP to add all the ingredients in myself (including oil used for cooking) and it was around 150 calories less than Blue Apron said. I did it again tonight just to see and the same thing. Has anyone…

Breastfeeding twins: Calorie goal?
I am exclusively breastfeeding my twins who are almost one. I don't plan to ween when they turn one, but want to work on my weight loss goal without affecting my milk supply. Any insight on how many calories to add for BF (esp for two babies)?

30lbs by 30! Looking for MFP friends and motivators!
Hi all, I have a goal to lose 30lbs by my 30th birthday which is April 17th. It won't be easy, but I am going to go for this. I don't have many friends on here at the moment and would love to add some people (preferably with open diaries) to help motivate me and be pals on here! From 2005-2007 I lost over 100lbs doing…

Need help with daily calorie goal. So many numbers!
I know there are so many threads about this, as I've just read through many of them. That being said, I am still a little confused when it goes to MFP recommendations vs. going by TDEE/BMR guidelines. According to the Harris-Benedict Formula my BMR is 1656. According to the Katch-McArdle Forumla my BMR is 1430. *Per the…

CrossFit weight gain?
Hi everyone! I got a Groupon for one month of CrossFit. I started about a week ago and have attended four classes. It's tough but I have been enjoying it! However, I weighed-in today and I am up 2 pounds and I feel really depressed and discouraged. I know I am working my body differently than my usual cardio and my muscles…

snack ideas (nom nom nom)
I like to have a few snacks throughout the day. I try to eat clean and unprocessed foods as much as possible! However, I am really getting sick of snacking on veggies, berries (I try to keep my fruit/carb intake lower), and almonds! Any other suggestions? :)

Fickle about my workout plan!
I consider myself a fairly fit person. In 2010-2011 I was doing a good amount of running for my workouts. I started with the Couch to 5k program and I worked myself up to 10k distance. My knees started giving me issues, so I got more into spinning for a while and fell off the running wagon. This February I started at a…

working out in the heat: risk?
Hi all, I've been working out at a CrossFit box for a couple of months. Recently, it's reached that point here in Florida where it's really, really, really hot. The location I go to is not air conditioned (this is common). I went to a 6 p.m. class about a week ago and I barely made it though the WOD and thought I might…

What is going on?
I am getting married in 52 days! I started a CrossFit program two weeks ago and am into my third week now. I really enjoy it and it's a great total body workout. Along with that program, I track on MFP of course! :) The past two weeks I've seen no weight loss and even a small (1-2lb) gain. I know from starting an intense…
