Intuitive Eating - Hmm?
I have recently been bombarded with messages through various resources (friends, a therapist, emails, etc.) about Intuitive Eating. This is supposed to be one of the solutions for people with eating issues. Has anybody ever tried this? Isn't the whole point of MFP that we couldn't manage the Intuitive Eating and therefore…

Just how important is breakfast?
OK, so I know that we're supposed to eat breakfast because it gets the metabolism going, etc. But I'm finding that because I am a bigger night-time eater (I stay up 'til about midnight usually), I'm a bit short on calories because I'm eating breakfast now. I could eat a smaller breakfast, I suppose, but I'm wondering how…

How often do you weight yourself, and why?

Feeling down - need some support
Well, my first 2 weeks on MFP - I lost 5 lbs and could actually feel this loss in my body - I felt lighter and walking wasn't such a chore.

I know some people do allow themselves a cheat meal, but they allow for those…

Weird "Dinner" on 4th night
So, today is my 4th day and I had to attend a cocktail reception at a restaurant. Not an ideal situation for someone new like me. Because of the situation, I wasn't really able to order a meal where I could take an educated guess at the calories. It was a few nibbles of appetizers here and there. I know my bevvy calories…

Kinda New-ish
Tried MFP a number of times before. It did NOT fail me. I failed me. Just wanted to get that out there. I think this is a great way of losing and maintaining - seems to work for so many others and has a no nonsense approach - calories in vs. calories out, right? So, despite having done this before, I've never really…
