iPhone 5S Steps and Map My Walk
Does anyone use the iPhone 5S step tracker/calorie adjustment? I do, I find it a great motivator to get up and move around more during the day. I then use MapMyWalk (MMW) to log my intentional walks. When MMW logs a walk with MFP, I notice that MFP adjusts my iPhone step calories downward, I assume to prevent…

Zombies Run 5k Calorie Tracking
Hello, everyone! I'm a newbie to Zombies, Run 5k...and I've heard its calorie tracking isn't great. It's difficult to use Endomondo with it, though, because you're doing a bunch of things instead of just running or just walking. How do y'all track your calories with ZR5k? I'd love tips--I'm a poor grad student, though, so…

Weight is a Wibbly-Wobbly, Timey-Wimey...When to Weigh Self?
Is there a best time of day? After any particular activity? With clothes, or without? I'm aiming for weekly weigh-ins, because if I did it every day, I'd drive myself nuts with the day-to-day fluctuations. Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

I gained a bunch of weight after starting on some antidepressants about a year ago--perhaps it's the chemicals, perhaps I…

I Feel the Need...the Need...for Pizza and Chocolate.
So, perhaps the ladies out there can identify a little better with this, but there are times when I'm just about ready to hold up a chocolate shop or run down the nearest pizza man. Seriously. All I can think about is a big, juicy, cheesy...sorry, I'll stop. A nice, creamy, sweet, peanut butter-filled.... :love: ...GAH.…

Locovore
I try to avoid chains whenever I can. I really want to support the burgeoning restaurant scene in my city, when I do chose to eat out. HOWEVER, since Buffalo doesn't require posted nutrition facts, it's really hard to get a good calorie count on whatever you're eating. What do y'all do? Just go lax on that one meal? Try to…
