Anyone have the Ikea Folldal bed? or Ikea recommendations?
I doubt I'm gonna find someone on mfp with this exact bed, but of course Ikea doesn't have reviews on their products. Was just wondering if anyone had problems with it like mattress not fitting or anything like that. I have a nice gift card to spend at Ikea. So any other recommendations would be appreciated.

Using MFP gained 200 lbs, with pics
Before: After: When I started using mfp 2 years ago I was about 190 lbs. I used the food diary and posted on the forums a bit. There some guy added me as a friend. I thought he was cute. We congratulated each other on losing weight and such. Then we started messaging, gmailing, skyping, texting, visiting across the…

Anyone work in food service?
My dining hall posted this sign about only serving eggs on a sandwich... So now I need to waste a roll whenever I order an egg. It seems like BS to me, but was wondering if they're legally supposed to do this for some reason? Originally one of the employees said it meant that you couldn't combine eggs with other meat on a…

vegetarian college dining hall foods?
Can anyone help me think of some suggests for my dining hall? They have a decent salad bar with a few awful salad dressings, bread and cereals, and ice cream. They always have one vegetarian soup and one meat soup. They also have calorific pizza and french fries. They have a pasta station which is vegetarian about half the…

Vegan Protein Powder? (non-chocolate)
I'm looking for a vegan protein powder that I can either find easily in the US or on amazon. I'd really like it to be completely dairy free, and I'm allergic to chocolate, so none of that. Any suggestions? I'm interested in cost per gram of protein, what the protein actually comes from, and what you mix it with. I'm going…

MFP for pets
Was just wondering if anyone tried to create a MFP profile for their dog or other pet. I know the calorie calculations wouldn't be the same since our bodies work differently, but I have a few pathetic friends with facebook profiles for their pets so I was wondering if any crazy person here is logging their pet's consumed…

Fage Greek Yogurt (USA)...
... is amazingly delicious. Plain or with blueberry. I was turned off by their plain simple packaging, and went for the cute Chobani Greek yogurts. Fage is so much better. I also like how the fruit is separated, so you do not have to have the full amount. (I wish there was an easy way to log only having half the sugary…

females - irregular period with weight loss? exercising?
Okay so I got a normal 5-day period two weeks ago. Then after a week I started bleeding again for 2 days. Not a lot, but more than barely anything. Now after 3 days of being fine, I am bleeding again. I'm not on any medication. I was on Yaz back in August, had a 20 day period, and stopped taking Yaz, and period went back…

Vegetarian % carbs/prot/fats for females
I was just wondering what other female vegetarians have for their carbohydrates/protein/fat percentages. I'm always under on protein and fat and over on carbs. I either have oatmeal or cereal or both every day. So I know that's what is putting me over, but I need something besides fruits, veggies, and nuts. Anyway, I want…

Family members on MFP?
I love this site so much and find it so helpful that I want to get my parents in on it. BUT I do not want to be "friends" with them because I have an ED, and I just don't want them stalking me like they did on FB before I deactivated my account there. But I think I may spill the beans soon. I don't want to be selfish and I…

Herbal Teas
What are your favorite herbal or caffeine-free teas? I love peppermint and Yogi kava stress relief tea (for the taste, don't notice any stress relief). Anyone drink and notice a difference with any Traditional Medicinals teas? I try to stay away from caffeine because it makes me sick, but I am usually okay with a cup of…

Favorite Packaged Foods
What's your favorite packaged food/meal? Mine would be the original Kashi Go Lean cereal (High Protein and High Fiber) because I think it has the best nutrition for a cereal. And Garden Lites which my mom picked up for me at Costco because they taste decent, they are easy to make, and they're a nice vegetarian source of…

Illegal?
I was at my gym today trying to get information about positions they were hiring for. I was mainly looking into lifeguarding, but I also noticed they were looking for support in childcare. I asked the woman at the front desk if there was an age requirement for working in childcare. She said that she didn't know and…

too much fiber? too much sugar? (new here)
First of all, I'm a vegetarian (not vegan, but I stay away from most dairy products) and I'm 20. My weight has gone up and down from my eating disorder, and I am trying to go back to my LW by diet and moderate exercise, not by fasting and spending more time at the gym than in bed. I pretty much eat: fruit, veggies, cereal,…
