"Weight Reduction Through Diet" a 1950's film, fascinating
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fxji5xkXOA I've become addicted to watching all of these short films uploaded to youtube from the 1940's, 1950's, and 1960's recently. This one in particular is fascinating. It seems like the government's been promoting this information (calories, macros, a healthy balanced diet, weighing…

Someone please explain how adjustments work
I am truly baffled. I am getting calories added when I am not going to go over MFPs original maintenance estimate. I am getting extra calories when I'm being MORE sedentary than MFPs estimates which they've created my deficit off of. What the heck is the point? Is it just adding calories to maintain on top of my daily…

Eating out? It's pretty easy to underestimate your intake!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hE2lna5Wxuo Found this video pretty darn interesting and wanted to share. We all know that calorie counting is a guessing game and we do our best to be as accurate as possible. With packaged products they can have a 20% margin of error (both positive and negative) according to the FDA. With…
