Quest Protein Powder
Hey all. Quest protein powder just became available in Canada (yay!!) and I'm really wanting to try it. What is the verdict on flavour? I usually use PVL chocolate and on it's own with water....meh! The sales lady at GNC said Quest is great but then again, she's selling a product. Any insight would be great. Thanks.

Hiring a Nutritionist
Has anyone here hired a nutritionist and did it help? I'm down 80 lbs from my highest weight and I'm finding that what I'm eating just isn't working for me anymore. I cycle between 1200 calories and 1600. If I stay at 1600 I find I don't lose to much. Just curious if it's helped anyone.

Drunkorexia
Did anyone hear of this somewhat new trend called drunkorexia. In a nutshell... a trend amongst young women where they skimp on calories in order to drink them. Huge health risks especially when done on a regular basis. I know that if I'm having a big night out, I'll eat lighter to try to balance (not drastic but just…

I love MFP! 18 lbs gone!
I'm a relative newbie to mfp. I started actively using the site May of this year. When I started I weighed 184 and after almost 3 months of logging I'm now at 166. I'm super pleased with the results. Before using MFP I once weighed 247. It took years and years to lose the weight. Since then I've had two beautiful babies…

I'm in a friend's wedding party this upcoming Saturday. I've managed to lose 18lbs in the last 10 weeks to prepare to wear a form fitting dress...BUT...that being said, I need to de-bloat and get ready to rock the dress.

After a 'bad' food day!
Question for you all... It happens once in awhile where we are at a social event and we eat too much and drink too much and feel sluggish and heavy the next day. What do you do to 'detox' your body after a day/evening of over consumption? Anything special or just get back to how you were eating previously?
