Is your fitbit Alta accurate?
I spend quite a bit of time on the Fitbit Alta forum, and there are hundreds and hundreds of posts of people complaining that their Alta is grossly inaccurate, usually under counting steps. Then there are the dozens of people who have lost theirs, apparently they fall off of your wrist easily. My Alta seems to be pretty…

Coffee/Tea drinkers and teeth staining?
I drink a lot of tea, and because of this my bottom teeth,especially the back of them get stained badly. I've just had them cleaned, and a couple of things my dentist recommended was to swish with water after every cup and lightly brush my teeth after every 3rd cup. I'm sick of having to get them cleaned/polished every…

Average burn - Average intake
The dashboard shows my average burn, but has a 0 next to average intake. I've been on the fitbit forum and know that it's been reported, but that forum is ridiculously confusing to navigate. Does anyone know if and when this is going to be fixed?

How to add New tracker?
I'm getting an Alta tomorrow, but can't find where to add it/replace my zip on the fitbit web page. Can someone point me in the right direction please :)

Is anyone thinking about getting the Fitbit Alta?
I'm seriously considering it. I have the zip right now, and i'm tired of changing batteries. Plus I like how the Alta automatically picks up exercise, and detects sleep etc etc without me having to press any buttons or manually enter anything. I also never wanted a HR monitor, so the alta seems to be a good fit for me.…

In the zone or under?
Does anyone strive to get into the "under zone" on your fitbit dashboard or do you prefer to stay "in the zone"? I'm always looking to get under, just a mental thing I guess. I know you can remove this tile, but was curious where y'all tend to fall by the end of the day.

Green tea product claims to equal 100 cups of green tea...
My son gets given loads of free samples of health and fitness products, and he gave me a box of this green teax100. I drink it sometimes because it gives me a nice clean boost of energy, unlike the jittery and hyper effect coffee gives me. Plus I dislike coffee and green tea. I don't drink it for the BS weight loss claims,…

Psyllium powder, count carbs or not?
I've read mixed reviews on google, some count the carbs and others disregard them because it is the "indigestible" kind... 20g of psyllium has: * 36 calories * 18g Fibre * 18g Carbs Obviously 0 net carbs. What say you all? Obviously 18g of carbs if they count, is a lot to ignore.

Does anyone post here?
Is there anyone out there??? :lol: Does MFP have a more active Dukan group?

Losing weight too slow or not at all? Using cups and measuring spoons?
There are so many threads about folks losing weight very slowly or not at all. Things most of these people have in common is that they all go by serving sizes, slices, guesstimates, pieces, or cups and spoons in their food diaries. Instead of posting these videos in each and every thread, I thought I'd just pop them here.…

Made my own butter, but ended up with 1/2 cream-1/2 butter- Calories?
So I decided to make my own butter, but for whatever reason and after 30 minutes of standing there whipping it with a hand mixer, it did not turn out. So now I am left with a mix of not cream, but not butter either. It tastes like half and half. Now I know the calorie difference between 30g of butter and 30g of cream is…

BSN syntha-6 protein powder
Does anyone use this brand? I would love to try the choc/peanut butter flavour. My main question, is side effects.. Particularly of the gaseous variety. I have read many great reviews about flavour etc etc but many also end with the protein pop off problem.

What is your average miles/kms walking speed per hour
I was curious to hear what your average speed per hour is when walking for exercise. I just downloaded MapMyRun and have only used it once. I'm not going to post the numbers just yet in case it is terribly slow! Just wanted a comparison with other walkers. Thank you :flowerforyou:

Quest Peanut butter cups?
Has anyone tried these, do they taste good? I know they're not going to be as good as Reeses PB cups, but was wondering how they compare. I wanted some reviews from people who have tried them before i buy them.

Bacon- Carbs or not?
I've noticed in a few peoples diary entries that it says 0 carbs next to their bacon. Where as mine has 3g carbs for 150g. I've looked in the USDA data base which states bacon does have carbs... Which is correct?
-
Mascarpone?
Has anyone tried it? From what I can tell it's a mix between cream and cream cheese, is this correct? Do you eat it as a dessert? And most importantly how would you describe the taste? I've also noticed there is mascarpone cheese and plain mascarpone, oi! Thanks All :smile:

Does CICO matter?
As everyone knows there are some die hard cicophants on the forums who often put down low carbers due to some of them saying calories don't matter when you restrict your carbs. I have read a few posts from low carbers on the general forums stating they eat more now then they did while eating a regular diet and are losing…

Hya, I've been reading everything i can here for the last couple of weeks, however i would like to have a look at Australian members diaries because a lot of the American entries aren't available here, or i have no idea what they are lol. Particularly Heavy whipping cream... I have no idea what that is or if it is even…

MCT V's Coconut oil?
Hi you wonderful people :flowerforyou: I was hoping I could hear some real life testimonials from folks who have used mct and coconut oil and if there is a difference between the two. Google throws up mixed results... Is one better than the other? Do you have more "energy" with mct over coconut oil? thanks :smile:

Bad breath
Let me start by saying that i have never had this problem before :confounded: This is most embarrassing! I've only been doing low carb for less than a week, not keto, and the last couple of days my husband has commented on the breath issue... Is this normal when eating lower carbs? One thing i have noticed is that…
