Hello again
Hey everyone. So I am back... not expressly trying to lose weight, but trying to get back into healthy eating habits. Part time vegan, part time vegetarian, meat less than once a day. It's very complicated :) One thing that I missed most about MFP was the sense of community and the lovely support people offer each other!…

I'm Back!
Yup! I lost a lot of weight on mfp, quit and joined another site, and gained all the weight back. Now here I am, ready to lose it and then some. But since I returned some of my friends have left, so I need a new support system and some brand new friends! I'm a very positive person and I love giving encouragement just as…

I'm not hungry for THAT
I was wondering if anyone else had this problem: I seem to have this idea in my head that sweet things do not fill me up. Example: Oatmeal with hot sauce keeps me full for hours. Maple flavored oatmeal makes me hungry half an hour after I eat. I really don't like this about myself, as I'm sure it's mental, but I just can't…

Fell off the wagon :(
I had two "bad" days and didn't accomplish my daily goal. I'm afraid I'll loose my motivation for the rest of the challenge. Got any ideas?

Blisters! Help?
Here's the story: I realized I would have no time to work out yesterday, so I decided to go on a walk... the only problem was, I only had my work clothes with me, so I had to walk in my dress shoes. The result: a MASSIVE blister on the back of my acchiles tendon, causing every bend of my foot to sting. I had a zumba…

I just yummed my yuck! :D
Before MFP, there were a few things I wouldn't eat, just because I HATED them: -Carrots... which some friends said I might have even been allergic to because the flavor would immediately trigger a gag reflex. AND -Brown rice... I'm part Filipino and we are all about the steamed white rice. Anything else just didn't taste…

Electronically tracking your self control?
Hi everyone! I'm super excited to get started on this challenge! So, I've decided to track my progress electronically, so I made an excel spreadsheet. I don't know if this sounds appealing to anyone else, but if there's demand for one, I can find a way to share my spreadsheet with you! :) You could also print it out blank…

How do I count calories burned?
I dance a lot, and there aren't a lot of dances logged on the fitness database. Does anyone know how I can count how many calories I burned when it ISN'T on the database?

Dancey Dance!
So, my dance class is coming to a close, and I'm still WAY into the dancing vibe. Time to look for a new dance class! My question for you MFP is: do you dance? If so, what kind of dance? What do you love about it? I'd like to hear from you to help inform my decision about what to seek out :)

Cheese...
Cheese is my greatest weakness. Chock it up to Swiss blood. So I'm grocery shopping soon and don't want to hate myself for the cheese I put on the list. Anyone know of some yummy diet-friendly cheeses?

Ooh gosh, this is new to me.
So I'm twenty-one years old... I was a very active dancer for about five years, but a few factors including a knee injury, a steady boyfriend, and school have forced me to take a break and pack on about 25 lbs. I normally prefer to do things alone and keep quiet, but this time, I'd really like to try to be more social…
