What's the difference between Diet Coke, and Coca Cola Zero?
" Coca-Cola Zero provides real Coca-Cola taste for variety-seeking consumers. Coca-Cola Zero is sweetened with a blend of low-calorie sweeteners, while Diet Coke is sweetened with aspartame. " I've heard Aspartame is bad. If you look on the can, both of these have aspartame listed on the ingredients. So are they both…

I want to LOOK pregnant this time =(
As soon as I hit 185 my husband & I are going to try for another baby. I'll be 24lbs lighter than I was last time I got pregnant. *sign* Can I vent please? I'm worried. Last time I was pregnant with my son & someone told me, "You don't look pregnant, you just look like one of those fat girls who pretend to be." I'm nervous…

Types of fat question
I'm customizing my food diary to see what certain things are in the foods I eat. I want to see how much fat, BUT which one should I pick? I always thought that fat was fat... but there is fat, sat fat, poly fat, & mono fat. What's the difference between all of these? Thank you for the help to anyone who replies =) Edit:…

Question about sugars & artificial sweeteners while baking
I use artificial sweeteners... yes I know they're not good for you, but at least I use Stevia which is suppose to be natural. Anyway that's now what I'm asking =) When I bake cookies I switch the sugar for artificial sweetener. BUT, can I switch the brown sure for it too? Or at least use less brown sugar and more…

This doesn't make sense
Here is a Stevia conversion chart: 1 Tsp Stevia (powered)=1 Cup Sugar 1 Tsp Stevia (liquid)=1 Cup Sugar 1/2 Tsp Stevia=1 Tbsp Sugar 6 Drops liquid Stevia=1 Tbsp Sugar A pinch of Stevia=1 Tsp sugar 2 drops liquid stevia=1 Tsp sugar Look at the 1st and 3rd equation, they make no sense! Sort of cancel each other out! Sooooo…

Feeling Shaky
Feeling shaky today, inside & out. Sort of like when you get pulled over by a cop? Yeah, that's the inside shaky. The outside shaky, I can't even hold my hand still. I don't understand why? Other than all of that, I feel completely fine, no headache, no dizziness, nothing. Has this happen to anyone of you? Do you know what…

cups per liter
Okay I'm lost. Google sucks lol. I want to know how many 8oz cups there are per liter.... Google said 32oz per 1 quart. But it also said 32oz per liter. Which doesn't make sense, because there's 2 quarts in 1 liter. So I guess I'm just wondering, how many 8oz cups are actually in 1 liter.

800 calories minimum is okay... for me!
This does NOT apply to everyone, only me. I talked to a professional today about diet and weight-loss. One of the things that they said was "1200 calories minimum is a general number." They have a height/weight chart that says what everyone should eat minimum. I am 5'6" and 207.2lbs. Because of my height/weight I am…

Can't find nutrition facts...
I ate at a restaurant chain called Texas Corral tonight. I can't find any nutrition facts on MFP for it. I couldn't seem to find any online either. Can anyone else find any? .... This restaurant is almost exactly like Texas Roadhouse, but the problem is, I can't find just plain red mashed potaoes for even Texas Roadhouse,…

My 40lb loss so far (43lbs to go) **Pix**
I take progress pictures every 10lbs I lose. I have found that it's really motivating for me to see the physical changes. So I hope it motivates everyone who looks at this post. A little about me: I was 209lbs every since high school. I got pregnant (had complications) & was 270lbs the day I had my son. Went down to 233lbs…

Anyone heard of, or tried, this?
There was a nutritionist on Rachael Ray a few days ago who said you could lost 4-9lbs a week, by limiting your sugar to 15 grams a day. I'd LOVE to lost 4-9lbs a week! LOL Jillian Michaels says to have no more than 1,500 of sodium a day, so I changed my settings to that also. Has anyone heard of this or tried this?

Might be a stupid question... but...
I was wondering, if you stay in your calorie goal & you exercise every day, will you still lose weight if you're eating crap foods? Edit: My food diary for today would be a perfect example of what I mean. I do NOT eat like this every day. But I was just curious.

Just a general question
What do you think makes you lose weight fast, between these two options. Cutting back on what you eat, without working out? Or Eating your regular calories, with working out? I know it's faster to lose weight by cutting back on calories, and working out, but that wasn't the question =P Edit: This is a general question, not…

Guessing at the food diary?
I had a brownie the other day & have to guess at calories so I searched the food database on MFP and this came up: Homemade - Chocolate Brownie, 1 Piece How much do you think 1 Piece is wise wise?

Mothers, quick baked snacks/meals...
We're mama's & we like to work out... so who has time to cook? Well we do... BUT who wouldn't want to find a quick baked snack/meal? So here's one: Snack- Meat & cheese crescent roll: Crescent rolls (butter flavored is best) from the store (the kind you bake)... But before rolling them up, put in deli meat & cheese! I use…

Are your weekly total exercise calories wrong?
Has anyone else noticed that their weekly total calories are wrong? If you look at last Sunday, is it the right amount that you burned total for the week? I burned exactly 5,000 total last week & it's telling me way more than I burned, same for the weeks before that.

Really feeling down!
I've been on a plateau for 5 weeks now, when the scale finally moves down it bounces all the way back up again two days later and stays there. Two weeks ago I decided to try to break the plateau by stepping up exercise by doing the following: I've been walking every day until I burn 500 calories. 30 Day Shred seven days a…

Ripped in 30 vs 6 Week 6 Pack
I'm doing 30 Day Shred right now. I've heard that the 30DS gives big results.... I haven't done Ripped in 30, or 6 Week 6 Pack.... My question is: Which of those two give bigger results? What should I do after I finish 30DS? I really need to focus on getting rid of my belly, so whichever does that.
