I got a taste of what it's like to have MFP friends and its amazing what motivational people can do!
I have been on and off of MFP for years and I've had some friends, but not like this. Recently, I decided to find and add more friends and wow, what a difference MFP is. Before, I would just log in and add my food and exercise, but nothing was really going on in my feed. I looked through my friends list and a lot of them…

Muscle cramps
I'm a newbie at lifting and I've noticed the more I'm working my muscles the more muscle cramps I am experiencing. I was told to eat bananas and I will have one before I workout.

Hi, I'm curious what you all record for your exercise diary. I have seen so many things on the list like cooking.

But do you record…

caffeine? or not?
How many of you drink coffee or something with caffeine in it before a workout or in the morning for the extra boost? Or is this a not a good idea? I am personally not a coffee drinker. I like hot herbal tea, which most of it is caffeine free or a small amount of caffeine. Should I drink more caffeine?

Hello MFP!

I am 30, and am starting to love it. (Yes, I did cry on my birthday.) All my life I have been under weight, not necessarily by choice, but thats just…
