Fitbit re: sedentary
I've seen a few posters mention that they need to hit X number of steps on Fitbit to reach 'Sedentary'. I'm sure this is a pretty easy answer...but how would I find my own sedentary threshold?

Sedentary or Lightly Active?
I'm a stay at home mom with kids in school all day. I aim for 3-4 workouts a week, and do all of the cleaning/cooking/shopping. I should have it set to lightly active, correct? I wear a HRM and eat some of my calories burned, not always all.

3 weeks in, and I'm looking for LC friends!

Have any of your SO's lost weight just because YOU have…

Question regarding pasta label
I searched, and determined that the NI on the box of pasta is for uncooked. Question: If I'm cooking for a family of 4, how would I measure out an appropriate serving of COOKED? I really do not want to weigh out mine, and cook it separately. Are there any conversion charts for uncooked vs cooked in terms of weight?

Hello, new here!
After gaining 18 pounds in ten months (It's a GOOD thing. I quit smoking!), I'm ready to make changes and take it off, plus some. :-) My initial goal is the 18 pounds, and then I'd love to go on for another 10-15. I've been stalking the success stories since Monday, and only felt it right to introduce myself.
