Just trying to figure out if I should dial back my exercise to see…

Anyone willing to share their shopping and food planning?
Like...break it down and share what you buy for a week and what you eat throughout the day? I feel like I should just buy and grill a bunch of chicken, have some veggies and fruit but realistically, I think I will get really bored, really quickly and then binge so just thought it someone was willing to share their "plan"…

I'm just not losing weight so taking drastic measures...
well, sort of. I'm going to start with doing slim fast for a week, maybe for the rest of July if I see some results, in an attempt to eliminate carbs (well mainly bread, pasta and processed sugar) from my diet to see if i can't jump start some weight loss.

Please, please help me decide what to do!!!

heel pain...please help me fix it!
I had knee surgery a couple months ago. I think that in the process of compensating for my knee and probably walking differently, I've injured my heel. I'm pretty sure it's plantar fasciitis but it's killing me and i just can't get it to resolve itself. I started working out again two weeks ago, Jillian Michael's Ripped in…

I'm starting this circuit training tomorrow because it looks like something I can do post-knee surgery but not quite back to running and other workouts but I'm not sure how to categorize it to record it in MFP. General aerobics? Would appreciate any help. Thanks!

HRM or FitBit??? Not sure which to buy...suggestions?
I really want to be able to accurately determine how many calories I am burning doing certain work outs. Is the FitBit good for this or should I invest in a heart rate monitor? I would love any suggestions or feedback you have on either and which you would buy if you could only buy one. Thanks so much!
