Small amount of weight to lose?
Anyone with a goal of 10lbs or less? I'm going to be cutting for about the next 12 weeks before I go back up to maintenance. Anyone else with only a little to lose? How long are you planning to cut?

Walking as Exercise
I was in the lunchroom being schooled on fitness and nutrition by a woman who had lost 80lbs not eating carbs (lol) Apparently walking isn't exercise and she was obnoxious about it too. I mentioned that I only walk as cardio because I would be too bored on a treadmill or stair climber and can't run to save my life lol. My…

I don't do low carb but if I can shave some calories off by using Heinz sugar free ketchup plus I've been meaning to try the SF Pudding mixes by Jell-o then I'm down... Going to totally check it out tonight and get some exercise too hehehe

Fitbit issues (losing active minutes and cals)
So I use my Fitbit as a rough guide of calories and mostly use it to track steps but I'm getting annoyed because I take a few bigger walks throughout the day and I notice that my last little walk to finish the 10k/day job ends up being the only activity tracked. And my calories drop way down which makes me pissy because…

Successful Losers (I mean that in the nicest way lol)
There are SO MANY posts about 17 day diets, diet pills, Keto, Atkins, Slim Fasts etc... I thought I would poll the ACTUALLY SUCCESSFUL people to ask what you learned and what you may have changed along the way. I personally came to MFP after doing Atkins (bout 3 times, that should have told me something lol) WW, I even…

Do baked sweet potatoes keep well?
My bf is about to start a bulk and he wants to have sweet potatoes in his lunch this week. We usually meal prep together on the weekend and I was wondering if baked sweet potatoes will keep well? We won't be freezing them they will just be in the fridge. I usually do fried rice for him; never baked sweet potatoes for meal…

Are you a creature of habit or do you need the variety?
I have zero problem eating the same rotation of a few things day in and day out which I think makes cutting super easy for me. Just curious as to others' eating habits. I occasionally work in food I don't typically eat if we're going out or if I want a specific thing, but more often than not you could set a clock by what I…

No Newbs, veteran calorie counters only pls
Can you help me estimate calories for this sushi roll? Inside is scallops and avocado, its light on the rice but on top there's a very sweet and sticky sauce as well as a spicy mayo-ish sauce that is probably really calorie dense. There's smoked salmon as well (on the outside) sprinkled with fish eggs too! Take your best…

Do you prefer to blow your calories or macros?
Ideally neither but for most of us who take more than a few months to lose the weight we have to lose, we WILL eventually have a special occasion or just a moment of weakness. Let's say you have a carb heavy meal; there was a party; whatever... would you rather go over in calories to come close or hit protein or would you…

Does your s/o train?
This isn't a big deal for me but I'm curious to know how many other people have bf/gf/spouses that train.

Calories on the menu where you live?
As of January 1st Ontario requires that every restaurant with more than 20 locations now list the calories of everything on the menu. I love this change and wondered if it's common elsewhere?

Non-Diabetic (for now!) Hypoglycemia
I've been having episodes of shakiness, headaches, nausea and extreme hunger (and subsequent carb binges) I've been checking my blood glucose and I seem to be low 3's fasted and I even dipped to 2.7 which was really grizzly. I am getting blood work done this week but wanted to see if anyone else has experienced anything…

Friends with open diaries, macros are 140c/53f/140p Add me
Just did a clean out of my OG friends that haven't logged in in months if not years. Looking for open diaries and similar macros. Not terribly active on the forums but I'd like to peep diaries for ideas. Have to cut 10 after dropping 75 over the last 3 years and getting lazy. TIA.
