Why is MFP continuing to not sync exercise from Samsung Health?
Up until the summer of 2022, I had been entering my workouts in Samsung health as 'weight lifting' and it would sync to MFP.

My pet peeve...

I'm not saying it isn't great to get responses, but when people do this it makes it seem like they are either 'the only person that has the answer', or they feel that their response is the…

Need some motivation? If you frequently fall of the wagon th
Confession time! I'll keep this short... On Saturday one of my friends came into town... I knew what was to come and while my intention was to be relatively good, I did OKAY. I had some FroYo... cheese, wine, vodka, Korean food, sushi (a lot of sushi)... etc. Needless to say, by Monday I was feeling pretty crappy on the…

Women Only: Bartholin Cyst
Anyone have any experience with these? I just got the worst one of my life, had to go to the doctor to have it cut open and a word catheter placed in it to keep it open for the next month.

Like nails on a chalkboard...
This quote is like nails on a chalkboard when I hear people using it for motivation...I cringe everytime I hear it. "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels." Why don't we try something different... "Nothing tastes as good as FIT feels"... or how about "There is no donut in this world that is as good as the way I feel when…

Throw Out the Scale Challenge
Seriously. Give yourself 3 weeks without obessing over your weight. Hide the scale. Get a tape measure, camera, and a friend to take pictures or a camera with a timer. Take measurements at your chest, waist, hips, thighs, and calves. If you can see physical changes taking place then what is the point in obsessing, get…

Obese children bullying?
Just thought this might be an interesting conversation... It seems that more and more thin children are becoming the target of bullying by obese children.

Does drinking derail your progress?
This seems to happen to me every weekend. I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem. I do great through the week and then I have a drink or two on Friday and feel guilty and somewhat hungover (yes from only one glass of wine) so then all I want to do is eat to try and make myself feel better! It isn't even like I get…

New Group to go Beyond Fat Loss
In the past few years my weight has fluctuated up and down 20-30 lbs. When I finally reached my goal weight in 2006, I was unhappy to find that I'd only become a skinny-fat version of myself. In 2007 I began lifting weights and loved the results. However, stress and school got in the way in addition to knee surgery and the…
