Food that can last for hours w/o fridge?
Does anyone have any ideas on foods that I can pack in the morning to eat for dinner? I sometimes have really busy days and came come home from the morning until 10pm/midnight. I have access to microwaves and boiling water when I'm away but no fridge. Is there any ideas that you have that I can eat that won't spoil from…

Food scale is inaccurate?
Hey everyone! So I have this scale (from the weight watchers brand) which I have used for a long time. When I do use it, the weight does shed off. I never had a problem with it before but I started having my suspicions that it's not accurate at all. Over the summer I haven't been dieting and of course gained some weight…

Switching from Atkins to normal-balanced diet?
So I've been on Atkins for over a month now. I know that many of you disagree with this diet but it's fine for me.. The thing is, I will be in France for in July without access to the low-carb foods (and will basically only be provided normal-carbed foods). I'm ok with going off the diet and switching to the normal diet by…

"Big batch" recipe ideas?
Does anyone have a favorite recipe that you can make in big bulks and just eat it throughout the week? Basically, something that tastes fine when your store it for a couple days. And the less the carbs the better for my meal plan!

But the place that majority of us are choosing is this Thai restaurant (Exotic Thai) which I absolutely love but now that i'm on a diet I don't want to mess this up. Ever since I restricted myself from even…

No-calorie Sweeteners/ "diet" sodas...?
I'm curious as to what are the reasons why you shouldn't have either sweeteners like Splenda/Sweet-n-low or diet sodas like Diet Coke...? I am aware it makes you have an apatite for more sugar but that's something you can technically overcome by just eating what you are supposed to. For losing weight, what are the reasons…

WOMEN: For those who have lost a lot of weight....?
This may seem like a weird question but what cup and band size has your bra come down to with whatever weight you lost? I'm bigger chested (and I know it runs in the family) but with being overweight, it makes them really awful and I was hoping for an idea of how much smaller they would get.

Eating ~1000 calories a day?
Is it a big deal if I eat only 1000 calories a day? It's not like I am starving myself or anything like that; its just that when I eat healthy by the end of the day thats exactly how much I tend to eat (and I do work out). So I understand I would be at a great calorie deficient but I don't feel like I'm starving and my…

Opinions on Lean Cuisines?
And other "lean" single serve meals? What do you think about having them as part of your diet occasionally? I like the idea of buying cheap meals for when I'm too tired to make my own dinner but are there things about these meals that can be bad for weight loss?

Switching from another app
So I'm switching from Mynetdiary to this app. I've used mynetdiary about 2 years ago when it was really popular and now I've noticed MFP is more advanced as far as userfriendly things go and apps it can connect with. But my calorie intake on mynetdiary was actually only a little above 1000. This is giving me the default…
