Bodymedia
Well, I updated my MFP app today, and apparently it now will not update any exercise information into MFP from my bodymedia account. Bodymedia can see my calorie intake, but my calories show 300 over because I have zero as exercise, although I know I'm right where I need to be for the day. I disconnected/reconnected the…

Size 14 & XXL to 8's and Mediums.. LOTS PICS and story.
So... this is my second shot at writing this one year post! I just passed one year on MFP and figured, although I am nowhere near my goal weight I should still make a post because I've come a long way. I really don't have a "goal weight" specifically and understand that I'll never be "done" because I like muscles and am…

Information Share!
I was thinking that it would be great to have a sort of swap meet! I want to find more information about a ton of different topics, and I am sure others would benefit from this as well! This is a list of great fitness related blogs, some of them are actually quite entertaining! I even found out a heavy lifter friend of…

DR OZ = EINSTEIN
Seriously, I am getting sooo tired of all this Dr Oz is a quack stuff! Dr. Oz saved my life and if Oprah (AND THE REST OF THE COUNTRY MIND YOU) believes in him, I do too!. Here are my reasons why. Oz said that Carnosine is the answer to aging. I just got my shipment in the mail yesterday, and since I have started taking it…

Old Spaghetti Factory :)
Nutrition information for the Old Spaghetti Factory is found Here: http://osf.com/menu/nutrition.htm I looked through it, found something that fit my macros then went and split my meal into thirds! Unfortunately, I was hit with "Soup or Salad?", "Fresh baked Bread?", and various ice creams! :) Normally, this is great! But…

Protein Vs. Calorie Limit
So... this is a daily debate. I am a powerlifter. I NEED lots of protein. I know this... I don't want to lose stength or muscle if I can help it! Everyday I try to get 150g of protein within 1700 calories. This means I am often forced to not have the treats to stay within 50 of my goal. Most often I am fine with this,…

Your Mom Jokes!
So I am a powerlifter, I have some big-time facebook friends including a man named Scott Cartwright! Really cool, really cool whatever... The point is. He asked in his status: Who was the drunk they had sing the national anthem? Me, being the smart-butt I am responded with: Your Mom!?! JK JK Lol! Well next thing you know,…

"DIETS"
So... here's the deal. I know for the everyday average person, the view is that diets don't work. They temporarily make you eat a certain way and as soon as you stop eating that way you'll eat the way you normally were and gain it all back over some amount of time. For athletes, why can't people go on "DIETS"? For example.…

Summer Time!?!?
So, although I didn't lose all the weight I wanted to last summer (I started MFP in April and took a break prematurely), I realized yesterday that I could be around my ideal weight for Summer 2012! It will be great! So far I've lost 20lbs and am anxious to see where I'll be for my next new bikini when the time comes!…

Accuracy of Health O Meter Scale...??
Hey World! I have been using this scale for months. When it comes to my weight, its pretty accurate :D I love that, however I wonder about the body fat percentage... but don't have the money to get officially tested. I've lost weight but the percentage only changed about 1%. I was low on my protein for most of it, doing…

Eating Exactly Your Goal
Hey Loves, I must introduce myself. When I first joined MFP I lost like 10 pounds in the first two months, the first 8 all in the first month! I hit a plateau and lost motivation. I ate and didn't log in for a few months, didn't gain the weight back though *phew*! Then it took me 80 days to lose about 4 pounds and I stuck…

Tribulus or Tribustol -- Used/Heard of it?
I was recently sent a supplement from one of my boyfriend's sponsors and was wondering if anybody else had used it and what they thought about it. Its commonly suggested for men and even women buy it at GNC to help with menopause. If you haven't heard of it before or used it personally, I definitely don't need attacks…

Weekly net calories
PLEASE COMMENT!!!! I've been stuck at the same weight range for 80 days now. This gets extremely frustrating. I read people who can eat whatever they want and still lose those calories. I post for help, people suggest more protein or less carbs... lol being STRICT is not my best. I work out plenty every week. I do cardio…

Daily calories and eating healthy?
Here is my dilemma. I am not the strictest eater. You will find junk food in my food diary on quite a few occasions. Personally I think its part of the reason I have slowed weight loss. My question is: How can you FILL 1700 calories with a good amount of protein in a day without eating when you aren't hungry? Anybody…
-
Thank You... it fits again!
For giving me my coat back! Last summer I had reached about 200 pounds! In the fall I started a food cart and the food cart serves horribly bad for you food (Sausages, Burgers, Chicken Wings... etc). I didn't quite gain anymore weight, but I hadn't come to the realization point yet. This last spring is when I really…

Not hungry in the morning... I mean afternoon?
So lately I have noticed I don't start to get hungry until after I've eaten something during the day. I get to bed around 6am *yes I know :( * and get up around 3:30 to 4pm. I don't get hungry until later at night! Now the equivalent of a normal schedule would mean I wouldn't be hungry until 2-3pm in the day! I worked out…

Reminders....
So I realized today while going through the forums (as I started to crave a soda) after posting something that in my Signature was a goal. I saw how it said 182 by Halloween. I remembered how serious I was when I decided that, and it reminded me that I don't want the soda that bad! I realized then that I need to leave more…

Whats your NSV today?
Today, while doing my hair at the gym I noticed that I started to get a second indent in my biceps! Not only do they look big, they are starting to get more defined! I also noticed that my calf muscles are starting to show! Not just being the bottom part of my leg, they are showing muscles (besides that awesome line on the…

As you may have noticed, I am definitely a girl. "D I have a world record in the bench already, at 225lbs. This was last summer, and I took a year off but am getting back into the gym and weight lifting in general. My current raw bench is only 125lbs. Anybody want to make this 300+lb bench by July?
