The Schwarzbein Principle
Anybody read, The Schwarzbein Principle? If so, what were your thoughts? I think the author is brilliant. She is a doctor who specializes in endocrinology and promotes low carbs for weight loss (she not's like Atkins). She works a lot with diabetic patients in her practice.

Blood Type Diet
Just wondering if anybody on MFP is a follower of the “Eat Right For Your Blood Type”? I discovered it about two weeks ago and believe in the science behind this way of eating. And for months of not seeing the scale move – it’s started to finally move following the guidelines for my blood type. Who knew that for my blood…

Sephora
Calling any make-up junkies ... specifically Sephora. :heart: Currently they are running a VIB Holiday Sale, but I'm not a VIB - they say VIB's can offer the promo code to a friend to use on-line. Does anybody wish to share that promo code? (You can send the code via a private message on MFP.) If so, you've got one…

Genetically engineered salmon - Read this please!
There's only 10 days until the FDA's "due date" to respond publicly to the petition calling for GMO labeling – and every comment is a statement that Americans care about what's in their food. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is preparing to approve genetically engineered salmon, which would be the first genetically…

And the above site is useful if you wish to add an exercise in MFP. Happy Calorie…

Giving Up Foods to Lose Weight
http://ezinearticles.com/?Giving-Up-Foods-to-Lose-Weight&id=3525969 I was so successful two years ago when I gave up "half and half" in my coffee. And I was always one to put extra cream in my coffee. Then, one day, I went cold turkey and started drinking it black. It was tough in the beginning, but now it's been over two…

Need support for starting over ...
Hello, I joined MFP about a year and a half ago - I did so well in the beginning, but since this past January I have started to gain again. I am so frustrated with myself and have gotten back up over 200 pounds again. I got down to 183 between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I'm looking for inspiration and motivation as to…

Do you use a kitchen scale to weigh foods?
Do you use a kitchen scale to weigh food (ounces and/or grams)? I read that it's best to measure things versus using measuring cups or spoons - for example it's best to measure an "ounce" of nuts versus counting them out or using a measuring cup/spoons. I purchased one this weekend from Amazon...here's the link.…

Cut-off time for exercise?
Twice this week I worked out close to bedtime ... did a 1-mile walking tape with a lot of energy and used hand weights (20 minutes duration). After that I get ready for bed and you would think I would sleep like a baby, however, the opposite happens. I have a hard time getting into a deep sleep. I have no caffeine either…

Need ideas for spreading 1,200 calories
I can never seem to eat consistently with my calories…and lately the last few weeks have been a feeding frenzy. Do you ever have days where you might be eating around 2,500 to 3,000 calories a day? I think I’m eating too many snacks, for example, a ½ of a peanut butter & jelly sandwich is around 350 calories…and that’s…

Getting frustrated...need input
I have been getting so frustrated lately. This morning I was up 6 pounds from last week. Whose weight fluctuates that much in ONE week? I have a friend and her weight never fluctuates like that – EVER. She stays within a pound consistently. I just don’t get it. Even though I ate over what was needed to "loose", I still…

Do you think all calories are the same?
I am so upset this morning - I weighed today and was surprised to see I was up 4 pounds from last week. I had a few days where I was over, but not to the point of where it should have caused a gain. If anything I should have stayed the same. And I do not buy into the 4 pounds being all water weight either. I'm really…

Meal
Yesterday I created a "favorite meal" ... it was a parfait. Today I needed to edit that meal and change something from one tablespoon to two. It appears I can not do that -- would I have to delete and start over?

No wonder WW didn't work for me...
Oh my Gosh, I have been doing MFP for about a month, but I couldn't help but wonder how this would all relate to the WW Points system.. which by the way I always had a very hard time staying within my "points" range each day. I thought I would look at yesterday and see what the points value was for my day -- it was 38.…

Calorie Adjustment per Weightloss
Silly question, but as I lose weight wouldn't my Daily Calories change? I lost 5 pounds now and surprised my daily calories aren't a little lower? I am still at 1,480 calories. Perhaps 5 pounds doesn't cause a change? Do I have to do anything to my original settings/profile as I lose? Thanks.

Do you log every single item...
For instance, I stopped logging in my black coffee I drink every morning. I was surprised there were calories in black coffee. Are there items you don't count? Oh yea, I don't log any lettuce. Just your thoughts? :flowerforyou: Thanks!

Help - 1st day I went sooooo over
Good news is I logged everything (old me wouldn't have done that). Bad news is I went over, like 355 calories in the red. :sad: Question, can I just eat 355 calories less tomorrow? That way both days would average out perfect. Do you recommend? Thoughts? I say "yes". ~Tammy

No Four, No Sugar
I typed too fast, Topic: No Flour, No Sugar :blushing: Is anybody out there like me, who is not only trying to keep track of their calories, but also trying to limit their flour and sugar intake? If so, send me a friends request so we can motivate each other. I find it really easy to stay away from flour -- but I do have…

I'm new - from Baltimore, MD
Greetings from B'More ... I am so thrilled to have found this website. I actually tested 4 sites yesterday and found this one to be the best. It appears to have the best lists of foods with their calorie count. This was the only one who had my McCann's Quick Cooking Instant Oatmeal that I get from Trader Joe's. I plan to…
