I have decided
I’m not a motivated person. Worse than that, I’m not a disciplined person. I wake up every day and I have this pep talk with myself. I’m gonna do it today. I’m gonna count may calories. I’m gonna stay under or at goal. I may even look up a 20 workout on YouTube. I have 20 minutes somewhere in this day, right? Today is it!…

Figs
I’m so confused by the info on figs in the database. I had a black mission fig this morning (fresh, 38g) with my breakfast. I try to look it up and there are numerous entries with very conflicting calorie counts. I’m assuming the higher ones are dried. But is 38g of fig really only 28 calories???? Where do I find reliable…

Nutritionist/Dietician
What’s the difference in a dietician and a nutritionist? And has anyone here ever used one? I’m just looking to change my eating habits, and that of my family. When I google nutritionist in my area, one pops up that sells Herbalife, which is not what I’m going for. Also GNC, Jenny Craig, etc. come up. I just want someone…

Super Beginner Yoga
So I’m 100% new to yoga. This morning I did a YouTube beginner “workout” (session?). It was Yoga with Adriene, which I’ve seen recommended here. I think I’ll like it. I do have a few questions. 1 - Is yoga good for weight loss? I mean if it’s my only form of exercise (beside the occasional walk, when it’s not 100+ degrees…

Coffee, or more accurately...
Coffee creamer. That’s my problem. Delicious, warm coffee with a butt load of coconut creme liquid creamer in it. Like 210 calories worth. Any tips on dropping the habit? Should I scale it back and wean myself off of creamer? Should I just switch to tea? I recently re-evaluated my goals and the switch to 1230 is gonna make…

Trampoline
Is the trampoline considered a good exercise? I know it’s low impact and obviously it’s cardio. Has anyone here ever used one as part of their exercise routine?

Weights - newbie
Hello Guys. I would really like to start using free weights (what is currently available to me right now) just in-home. But I’m not sure what I’m doing. My main question is what type of warm-up should I do and do I need to keep my heart rate up. Like you don’t just start lifting, correct? You have to get the blood flowing…

Am I being punk’d?
So Thanksgiving weekend was not stellar for me. NBD, I was just gonna pick it back up today and keep going. No sense in beating myself up over it, right?! So I’m sitting here after I eat my banana snack and there’s a knock on the door. This dude needs to borrow my hand mixer bc his wife started a recipe and forgot she had…

Wii Fit vs. Scale
I am wondering if any one else weighs on a Wii Fit balance board? It's all I have and I just wonder if a scale would be more accurate? My mother has a digital scale and it shows my weight to be a few pounds higher :grumble: I'm just wondering which one I should trust.

Treadmill/MFP question
I have a quick question...I just jogged a 15 minute mile (4mph), and my treadmill says I burned 147 calories, but when I log it, MFP says 95 calories. Anyone know which one would be more accurate? TIA!
