Staying within goal for sugar - advice
I am really trying to pay attention to my macros in what I'm eating, following my meal plan but I was just logging today's breakfast and lunch (with my morning snack) and I'm already in a negative for my sugar intake - and its all from fruit!

I need some perspective here - I started MFP again about a month ago. I started out using MFP's recommended caloric intake then I ended up switching to TDEE counts about 2 weeks ago when I got a wonderful gal from here as a mentor.

Pork Loin Slice Recipe needed
My husband loves breaded port tenderloin sandwiches but of course they are so totally not healthy. I have been trying to find a recipe for a way to make mine without frying and the breading, but of course when I do a search the only thing that comes up is pork loin chops or pork tenderloin roast, neither of which this is.…
