Please help me with my next steps
I’ve been a member of this group for a while and searched around for a bit when I first joined MFP. I recently asked a question on the forums, but nobody seemed to be able to help me. Someone pointed me in your direction. I’m hoping I’m following the rules posting this, if I’m not please feel free to delete with my…

Smokin BBQ lunch today! Yum!
So here's where I'm going for lunch. http://www.horndawgsbbq.com My current calorie intake is 1650 and I have a wedding to go to tonight so I'm going to way the **** over calories and macros for the day! I figure I should keep lunch slightly in check as I plan on partaking freely in wedding food/alcohol and dessert this…

Iron levels
So I recently noticed that I usually barely meet my suggested iron levels for the day. I would like to make sure I'm getting the right amount in my diet. So off I trudged to the bulk barn, stocked up on high iron rich foods and made myself some protein, iron bars. The recipe I input into the recipe calculator said that 1…

First Day in the Weight Room
It was awful, I know nothing about weight lifting! This is going to be a huge learning curve.

Pizza in the Staff Room!
Stupid pizza day at the school today. Just as unfortunate as the large box of free pizza is the smell wafting through the entire school. Doesn't fit my macros today with the dinner I have planned so alas it's off limits! MUST STAY STRONG lol

Anyone Know Anything About Sugar Free Bread?
I buy all of my bread from a small bakery in my town. I mostly purchase rye bread, but they were out when I was in this week and they suggested their sugar free french roll. Now normally I don't eat white bread, but she had me intrigued by the sugar free part. I have done some quick searching and can't find anything on it.…

Help Me Move to the Next Step!
So it's taken me awhile, 2 1/2 years be down 30 pounds. I'm pretty excited about the loss, but I still have about 5 pounds to go. These pounds seem to be stuck to me like glue! I'm pretty close to maintenance, there's a bit of tummy and love handle fat that needs to go first (and yes I do realize you can't spot reduce) but…

Stupid Dairy Queen

Help Please
I can't seem to reach my darn protein target. I've had a few bad weeks of eating too many sweet things and need to get off that band wagon fast. However I'm currently more concerned with the fact that I seem to be under the protein goal EVERY day. Any suggestions? I think I'm eating pretty good with the exception of the…

Derek Howes "The Protein Chef"
I just happened to discover this website, I did a search on mfp and found a few threads from a month ago so I thought I would post for any new people. So far I've made the chocolate pumpkin muffins, the blueberry quest tart, and this morning the quest cookie pizza. Everything has been really delicious thus far! If you're…

I'm confused about couscous
Is the darn nutrition facts on the back of the box for cooked or dry couscous? It's the same for some of the rice I cook too, it never says on the back of the box! This particular brand of couscous is Casbah Roasted Garlic and Olive Oil. :huh:

Hoshin-Martial Arts
I'm having trouble trying to accurately log my martial arts burned calories. I am currently in martial arts once a week on Thursdays from 7-9. We complete a warm up, do a variety of self-defense techniques and then end with a 15 minute meditation. We aren't allowed to wear any jewellery of any sort so a fitbit or device of…

New to MFP :)
Joined a few weeks ago and just noticed the community section. Two years ago I decided I needed a change. Through trial and error I've lost about 28 pounds. I'm on the last 5 pounds and am struggling a bit to take it off (mostly I think do to will power lol). So I'm really going to try and stick to my guns and get that…
