Fish how many times a week?
I've recently discovered what a an awesome resource of protein fish is, and have gone from eating it 1-2 times a month, to now eating a double serving of (frozen) wild caught salmon once a week. But I'm wondering if it's ok to actually eat fish 2-3 times a week, or even more than that? Is the whole 'eat fish in limited…

Pre-Planners how far out do you plan?
I'm just starting to pay attention to macros/trying to hit specific macro numbers, and I'm really seeing how pre-planning will help the numbers click into place.

3 Days into LC/GF and I have a list of Questions for the Veterans :)
Decided to go grain free/lower carb earlier this week as an elimination diet of sorts, to see if it sorts out some pesky health issues I'm having, and after three days I have several questions I hope someone can help me with (sorry this will be a bit long winded lol). 1. My fiber intake has really gone down since starting…

Anyone go low carb/grain free for health reasons (not weight loss)?
Hi everyone-I'm maintaining an almost 60lb loss and I did it just by cutting back on calories/IF. I've been maintaining for a couple years now and want to start addressing some issues I'm having-'fuzzy' brain (trouble concentrating etc), bloating (which is really noticeable at a lower body weight), being lethargic etc etc.…

Back to deal with some maintenance creep
Hi everyone- I used to have a MFP account some time ago and I'm back today to address some maintenance creep that's been happening over the past couple of months. I originally lost around 57lbs and my 2 year maintenance anniversary is on the 10th of this month. My maintenance range is 120-125lbs and the past few days…
