muscle milk/MM Light bad for you?
I drink those 100-cal muscle milk light drinks after hard workouts sometimes, but was just told by a friend he read or saw that they were really bad for you. i tried looking it up, but didnt find anything BAD other than regular MM having too much saturated fat. thoughts?

calorie change, per dietician
with a BMR of 1470, and HARD workouts 6x a week, MFP forums and the TDEE equation, i was advised to eat my BMR plus some, if not all of my exercise cals to lose weight. i was eating in the 1700s on most days, and the scale didnt budge for over 3 weeks... in talking with my dietician again and explaining the situation, she…

great healthy food finds
some of you might know the ones ill say, but to those that dont, these are DEF worth finding (please post your own too!) Better N Peanut Butter (sold at Trader Joes)- same consistency as PB, and about 95% as good- but 100cals and 2g of fat per 2 tbsp instead of 190cal/16g!!! PowerAid Zero - 0 cals, same refreshing taste,…

which is better?
what i have been doing is setting my cals to 1500, working out hard 5-6x a week (450-800 cal burn usually) and eating 100-200 of my workout cals daily (frequently the case). more often than not, i end the day in the 1600s if MFP sets my calorie intake, it puts me at 1310. is it better to go off that, and eat around 1310 on…

the scale hasnt been moving for the past 2-3 weeks, despite eating great 95% of the time and killing it in the gym 5-6x a week. my frustration just led me to eat about an extra 600 or so cals at an office luncheon (i ate big portions of good food- too much, and avoided everything bad except 4 small thin sugar cookies that…

BodPod
I did the BodPod for the 1st time back in August, and was shocked at how high my body fat % was, considering how much i work out. since then, i have lost almost 10 lbs, changed some of the foods i was eating, and i lift a lot more now. i signed up to do the BodPod again on Mar 3rd- which is slightly more than 6 months…
