Our family needs two treadmills
My wife and I love our treadmill. We use it while watching TV or reading. The problem is that there are two of us but only one treadmill. As I'm currently fitter than she, when we both want to use it she gets it. I used to work out in morning before she woke up but now she figured out that working out in the morning is the…

Small Victory #2.. Water!
I use to hate water... I was lucky if I got 1 cup in a week (outside of water that exists in the foods I ate). I finally got use to 1 cup a day...but it took me ALL DAY to drink it. When I started MFP 8 days ago, I forced myself to at least drink my 1liter bottle every day (4 cups)...again it took me ALL DAY to do it,…

Need to turn my life around!
So today, for the first time in my life I truly had to come out of denial in terms of how unhealthy I am. Never did I think I would find myself aged 20 in a doctors office being offered a gastric band surgery! I just wanted to cry, scream and run out the room, finally having to admit I was that heavy. I've been given 6…

What's for supper???
I know I'm not the only one who likes food porn, so I'll share some of mine if you will share some of yours. I made a salad out of a bag, adding pork tenderloin, tomato, onion and green beans. I did forget to add the olives, but it was still good. Larro

No support when I could use it. :(
I've been doing this for over a month now, no one around me is supportive. If they aren't making jokes about the changes I'm making, they show no care at all. I have lost nearly 13 pounds by just changing my eating habits. I know it's not a lot but it's an accomplishment and I'm proud of it...until someone asks how much…

Do you find TDEE to be accurate?
I've been maintaining for about a month. I increase my calories every two weeks and am currently averaging 1,500. TDEE calculator gives me 1,700 per day. I'd LOVE to be able to eat that amount.

Quick ideas to add protein to breakfast?
I am not a morning person and I don't have time (well the inclination to get up early and make time!) to grill turkey bacon or anything else on a morning.

Question about "As Prepared" Serving Sizes
Pasta Roni may not be the best thing for me, but it's super easy to make, tasty and an easy way to add some carbs/fat. It is basically the pasta version of rice a roni. My question is with the nutrition facts, as you can see even on the "as prepared" side it still talks about how much 1 serving is dry. That is of no help…

I have pcos and weight has always been an issue for me. But I'm finally taking charge and I've managed to lose 14 lbs in 4 weeks.
