I'm confused
I recently got a fitbit and it's linked to MFP which is adds calories burned at the end of the day. Question is should I still log my exercise on MFP or just use what the fitbit gives me at the end of the day??? Thank you

Is it really better?
Is going premium really better then staying with the free version of MFP? I'm intrigued by the premium, but I want to know if it's really worth the money. Does it help you lose weight faster? Input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Exercise Exercise Exercise
So, I have an exercise question. I do about 30/40min of exercise a day. If I'm feeling unmotivated I only do 20min. I was curious if that's long enough? I see on here that most people do an hour a day and that absolutely amazes me. Even when I was 17 (I'm 32 now) I couldn't do an hour of exercise. I want to succeed at…

Obsessed
Am I the only one that gets totally obsessed with MFP?? I'm constantly checking my feed, looking at my goals, looking at the community, going over my diary, and so on. I know my goals and diary don't change and my feed doesn't always update every 5min but I still have to look. Lol. I'm completely addicted!

A smile NSV that put a smile on my face
Walking into the gym yesterday my 10 yr old kept looking at me smiling and laughing. I kept asking why he was laughing at me. Of course I was getting upset and I kept looking at myself being self conscious trying to figure it out. Finally I told him I would take tv away if he didn't tell me what he was laughing at. He…

Black Garbage Bag???
A lady at my gym told me to tape a black garbage bag around my stomach while I work out to tighten the skin around my stomach. In other words I won't have saggy skin. Has anyone heard of or tried this?? She said she did it and it works but it sounds sketchy to me.

Workout Advice
I worked out for 40 minutes yesterday 20min elliptical and 20min stationary bike. It gave me 640 calories burned does that sound right? That seems like an awful lot for just 40 minutes. Should I be going off what the machines say or MFP?

Ugh!!!
I started MFP a year ago and I was doing really good. By really good I mean 40lbs in 3months. It was so easy to stay on track and I loved going to the gym. Then I got pregnant and had my baby in April. This is my first week back to MFP in a year. I've gained almost all my weight back in that year span. This time around I'm…

The only time I can go to the gym and work out is around 5pm. Thats also when I have the most energy. Does that hinder my weight loss because I am working out in the afternoon and not the morning? Also, I work out right before I eat dinner does that defeat the whole purpose of working out because I'm putting those caleries…
