Nocturnal Leg Cramps
I am not looking for diagnosis OR medical advice, per se but I AM looking for anecdotal advice. For those who have a tendency towards nocturnal leg cramps, is there anything you do to either prevent them or make them go away more quickly? The last couple of weeks has been really bad where I get cramps 1 in 3 nights instead…

Recipe Builder question
Am I missing it or is there a way to include one recipe from my recipe builder as an ingredient in another recipe? The reason I ask is because I do not like salty foods so I often make my own things like taco seasoning or some sauces that normally are high sodium in their commercially prepared versions (also saves money…

Bluetooth kitchen scale
I was browsing my credit card rewards points and I saw a bluetooth kitchen scale that works with an iPhone app to log foods. Has anyone used one? Does it work? Can it be synced with MFP?

Road Trip foods
I am looking for ideas for food to take with me on a road trip. I am driving 2 days to my brother's for a wedding and will be staying in an Airbnb overnight. Since I am driving, I can take a small cooler with me. A lot of my usual lunches and snacks can go with me (yogurt, cheese, hard cooked eggs, fruit) but I am looking…
