Fitbit Steps Not Syncing
Has anyone else noticed issues with MFP not syncing their Fitbit step data the past couple of days? I have followed the usual steps to try and rectify it to no avail. It will allow me to input exercise manually.

Goal Setting Approach
I was wondering which approach everyone takes. I have a job that involves some manual labor and some sitting at a desk. I do moderate exercise at least 4 times per week for 30 to 60 minutes. I set my activity level to light activity, rather than sedentary, and do not track exercise. Does anyone else find this approach…

I've been at this awhile. I believe 3 years now. I'll be the first to admit I am not as strict with weighing certain things as I used to be. Calorie dense things like cheese, peanut butter, etc.. I do keep reigns on still, though. I've hit sort of a setback. At my heaviest I was around 280lbs. My lowest was January of 2018…

PSA, Alternate Title, "The Failed Experiment"

Sore Sit Bones
I just took up cycling 14 years after the last time I owned a bike. Today my sit bones are sore. Some websites say that's not normal at all, while others say you just have adjust the saddle as best you can and basically break your sit bones in. I'm 5'5", 171lbs with longer legs and a short torso. I tend to be a more…

Day 2 (and question)
Hello, everyone! Glad to be a part of this group. I am currently on Day 2 of using the cups and I have a question about using them to help with portion control long-term. The cups were given to me by my aunt. She ended up keeping the workout information, so I have no idea about the 21 Day Fix workout plan. I do maintain a…
