Fitbit
Any of you that use Fitbit, do you set it to negative calculations? I do, because I want a true measure of my activity, but it discouraging to lose 150 calories as soon as my day starts. And days I am not active, like today, I have lost 200 calories so far. So, when i go out for my jog, which typically burns around 350…

Don't Give Up!
I am pretty excited. A couple of weeks ago when I figured I was not going to be able to drop anymore weight, I started giving away some of my clothes that had gotten too snug. There were 2 pair of skimmer shorts that I could not bring myself to give away just yet. They are my favorite summer wear. Tonight, I tried them on…

I Gave it to God
I am not ashamed of my faith, so if that kind of thing bugs you, you may not wish to read this blog. Five and a half years ago was the first time in my adult life I reached a weight of under 200 pounds. I had been fat and miserable with no self-esteem from the time I got pregnant with my first child in 1981, until I got…

New members invites?
I have a friend who just joined NS and lost 7 pounds the first week! I have also encouraged her to join MFP and this group. How do I send her an invite for this group?

Goal confusion
I am not sure how to figure my calorie goals! Fitbit did an automatic rate for me based on current weight and how much I want to lose, and how fast. They came up with 1700 calories a day. But MFP also did an automatic plan, and they came up with 1432. I do not lose weight no matter what I do, so what I am trying to do is…

NS Shakes
I have been using the protein shakes, but I see others post about the craving crushers. What is the difference nutritionally?

I Guess This Is It
After a month of being on NS and not losing weight, I have come to the conclusion my body weight is where it is supposed to be. I am going to continue following the plan, because I just feel so much better - plus I don't GAIN anything. I know NS works. I had tried every diet under the sun before I started in back in 2006.…

OH NO! Where's my food?
It was shipped on 4/29. I went online to track the order and it says it was delivered to the front door on Friday. I don't know where they delivered it, but I don't have it! I am on hold with NS. I am so upset.

Almost out of food!
My food is on its way, but I have ONE more breakfast, and I want to have it tomorrow morning. So I had to get creative. I made an omelet using 2 egg whites, 2 oz. turkey breast, 1/2 cup spinach, 1 stick jalapeno string cheese, and 3 grape tomatoes! It was pretty good! I just hope my food arrives tomorrow afternoon! I do…

Not losing weight!

So I joined NS again on April 5. I lost like 4 pounds the first week. I have gained one back, and the scale is not budging at all. I…

Menopause Madness
My name is Dottie and I 53 years old. I have been moderately overweight pretty much my entire life. In October of 2009 I reached my goal weight of 160 ( started at 225) and maintained it quite well for about 3 years. For the past 2 years, I have struggled with the same 10 pounds. I originally lost weight on NutriSystem, so…
