Sprained Foot
Hi all. I sprained my foot (grade 2) about a week ago. Been in a brace with instructions from my Dr. to not do any exercises that will put stress on it for two more weeks. I am an avid walker and have been working my way up to being able to jog for extended periods of time. I also love yoga, but every time I have tried…

FitBit help??
Hello! I am needing advice on where to set my "daily activity" if I plan on wearing a fitbit all day. I want my fitbit to track my activity so I get a more true reading. I would say I'm a fairly active person. I teach elementary school, and have 3 children, so I am always on the go. If I set my MFP activity to "lightly…

Allergies and my new eating habits
Ok. I know this isn't a complete success story, yet, but I just had to share! About 3 weeks ago I was diagnosed with wheat, soy, and peanut allergies. This was a shock to me. MOST of my diet consisted of foods containing wheat and soy. Also, Peanut butter is a staple in my home. Since then, I have completely cut wheat, soy…

App advice needed!
I have always used map my fitness, but decided to try out Pacer just to see what it does. Can I still use map my fitness when I go for walks in addition to having Pacer synced? Does this double the cals burned because two different apps are tracking it? Thanks for the advice!

Barreamped
I just started barreamped today. Is anyone else trying this? How do you log it? Do you prefer it to a hot yoga class, or maybe zumba?

I lost a bag of dog food
I am not too close to my goal weight yet, but today I realized just how much weight I have actually lost. I went to the store to buy my dog a new bag of food. As I was huffing and puffing carrying this giant 40lb bag out to the car it hit me that the bag is about the same amount of weight I have dropped these last several…

Slipped a little
But I'm getting back on track. I started several months ago and lost 35lbs pretty quickly. Yay! I guess since I was feeling so good about my weight loss I started thinking "Hey, one slice of pizza won't hurt." or "It's just one chocolate chip cookie." and just like that my awesome weight loss record came to a screeching…

Passed my first goal early!
When I started MFP, someone told me it was good to set mini goals for yourself. I did this, thinking my goals were going to be a real challenge for me. This week I passed my first mini-goal. The awesome part about it is that I had set the goal for Halloween. I'm 2 months ahead of schedule!

Yoga
My mother and I have been taking yoga classes to help us feel better, and aid with some weight loss. I think it is working. I have been alternating my yoga classes with walking, and the weight is melting off. We went to a lovely class this morning where we worked on our full sun salutations. It was a great start to the…

Jogging in rain
Is it worth it?? It's been raining all day. I'm restless and want to get my miles in today.

I'm a bit stoked.
So.... I'm not too far into my whole loose-weight-and-get-healthy thing I'm doing now, but the most amazing thing has already happened. My capri pants from last summer fit me again. Seriously. It's like Christmas in my closet.
