Please help ...... recipe found then lost
I hope someone can help or at least point me in the right direction. A wee while ago, I saw a recipe for a meal made with garbanzo beans and spinach, plus a variety of spices on the MyFitnessPal blog or daily feed that comes thru’. I made the meal and loved it. Full of flavor and nicely spicey. I ‘thought” I had saved the…

6'1 - 6'3 Guys. Goal Weights?
I'm 6'2, and according to the science guys, the healthy weight range for someone my height is between 194 and 145 lbs. That is a huge range and I'm trying to get an idea of what's realistic. On 1 Sept 2018, I was 257 lbs and by 2 March 2109, I was 193lb, which when I started seemed like a very long way away, and was a…

"One"-derful Moment
I don't post much, if at all, but this morning, I really wanted to just share a little of my overly excited self's news. I've been on MFP for several years, been a consistent yo-yo dieter, going between 267 and 215 each time. This time, when I started on Sept 1, I resolved this would be my last time. Since then, 152 days…

Old(ish) Guy Looking for accountability buddies
HI I'm 52, married, and have been on mfp before when I managed to lose 50 pounds but have since gained most of it back. I've been back on here for 9 weeks and have been fairly sensible, but I can already see that I'm not finishing my logging entries on days where I'm being a bit lax, and I'm still making the occasional bad…

Another newbie, another question
Hi all I've been looking into DDP for the last few days and questioned a couple of people and also read a fair bit. So, I'm thinking I'm going to go ahead and order this and get stuck in. As someone just starting to lose weight, and who's idea of flexibility is being thankful I can get my socks on every day, I'm a little…

Baffled by chicken
Tonight, I grilled myself a chicken breast. It was quite a big breast, and weighed in at 13 ounces. I duly logged my raw, boneless, skinless chicken breast and paid the 403 calorie price for it. Once grilled, (no sauce or seasonings), I weighed it ( and usually I never do that) and it was just under 9 ounces. I enjoyed my…

I hope this stops
I know it's verging on the TMI side of things however..... My daily fluid intake used to be between 3 - 6 cups of home ground, really good black coffee, 2 or 3 cups of tea and 1 - 2 cans of diet coke. Since I started on here, 3 weeks ago, I'm down by a cup or two of coffee and have reduced the diet coke by at least half.…

Help keep me going In the days to come
HI Just finished my first week, fully logged and was delighted and amazed to find that 8 pounds had fallen off. ( I have a fear they're just hiding in the bathroom waiting for me to go back in there and then they'll pounce on me.) I'm old enough to realise that was a bit of a fluke and it's not going to be that easy in the…

6 oz of pork
So, tonight we're having baked pork. Should be easy to get the calories...... Except that my top loin boneless lean pork chop seems to be anywhere from 210 cals to nearly 500. That's a heck of a difference and is the difference between me being able to have my chocolate tonight and not.
