popcorn issues
So I just popped some popcorn. It was Act II movie theatre butter popcorn. The box says each bag has 2.5 servings, 4 cups to one serving. This means the bag is 10.5 cups. Well I only got 3 cups out of it and ate it all. There were lots of unpopped kernels. Do I get to enter it as the 3 cups which would be like 90 cals or…

FitBit users: tracking a workout
If I want to track a workout I press "start" then "stop" when I am done and it gives me a total amount of calories burned in that timespan. Do I then subtract the calories burned from "living" like on average it is 90 cals per hour just to live... or do I take the number it tells me and log it on MFP? Thanks

bodybugg
Anyone use a bodybugg? Is it complicated? I'm not very technologically or computer savvy! Do you use it with MFP? Is the calorie counting program similar to MFP? Or do you just use it for tracking calories burned? Is it worth the money or maybe just get a regular calorie counting watch? SO many questions thanks in advance.

weekly vs daily calories / zigzagging?? happy summer ?! :)
What do you think? I always have 1 or 2 bad days where I go over usually due to a party or date night. Especially now being the summer we do a lot of bbq-ing and fun stuff. I always feel guilty about this. I find myself less hungry the next day after a night of indulgence and usually eat a lot less that day and it all…

So, I like to drink onve or twice a week. I only really drink white wine and can/will drink 3-6 glasses (5 oz-ish a glass) a week.
