Everyone needs to be mindful of the choices they make when selecting foods from MFP. Many of the entries are absolutely inaccurate. You should google every food you eat, and compare it to the entries on MFP. When you google it, look at multiple sites and figure out what is accurate. Nothing is perfect, but like I said you'll find many entries that are flat wrong.

Yeah. Another good resource, when it comes to raw foods, is using http://nutritiondata.self.com. It's definitely a better and more complete resource for raw foods. Also, all these entries ARE on MFP, so you just have to wade through it the first time. Plus once you have it on your list, you don't have to search it up a second time. But MFP's database for store-bought brand-name items is usually quite solid.

I can only assume that being ill has caused me to dehydrate considerably as, despite my various binges, I am still registering a reasonable loss on the scales as of this morning.

[ShapingUp]

Please add me on MFP, labissonette. It's been awhile since I've tracked calories. not my favourite hobby.

[Spirit904]

We can do THIS peeps DON'T YOU GIVE UP !

MFP: Vaylor

Wow drinking a protein shake in the morning really fills you up for the day.

Pre photo, I guessed I weighed 280. I didn't officially start "cutting" until a month later. (early March) I was kinda of cutting all of February as well, but just working my way into it without counting calories. I may have been 285 or 290. My highest known weight was 308 but I'm pretty sure I was even fatter.

So 90-100 pounds.

Hope to be down some weight on Sunday. Only been productive with diet this week. Sick daughter and babysitting to help her get some rest. Then getting ready for baby shower today have taken a lot of time.
Hope all have a great weekend.

Well, looks like I should be logging some weight loss this week. After a massive binge on New Years Eve, which was after my starting weight, I seem to have taken all that off so at least I should see the scale move down this week.

Off to a job interview to get a second job. Good luck to all today!

[KidAlchemy]

Didn't have the best the best week to start off, living with my parents for christmas and new years and they really aren't the healthiest food experts out there,even though thats a lame excuse for my failures. Luckily I'll be going to my place tomorrow and being there makes weightloss WAAAYYYY easier.

[Gelert]

Not sure how to add people on MFP, but my username is AnthonyLJones

[Sidewayz8]

Just had a great workout. spent about 90 minutes at the gym, mainly weights, but also some treadmill at the end. Hoping my scale shows up in the mail soon so I can do a better job of tracking my info. Till then I'll have to use the Gym scale that I only have access to on Friday Mornings. Tomorrow starts a new week, with new challenges. Good Luck to everyone, and keep up the great work.

[Allingham]

Went out with friends today. I may have had a few beers and a lot of Chinese food but I blame it on my need to see The Hobbit. Great film if you like that kind of thing.

Interested to see how everyone is doing tomorrow

[aznchopstix]

166 lbs this week. started at 167

but i got my mile time down from 7:40+ to 7:07

lol

still fat, need to push until im at least 10% bf

[Superher0Soul]

Have never properly used MFP but i have the app
will start tracking my foods using it on monday when i get back to my flat

[Kelekin]

My friend told me today his goal is around 230 lbs, with DEXA scans and all that telling him he'd be at roughly 15% BF. Took a long time for me to explain to him why it is unlikely he'd even be sub-20 at that point.

[morrikj777]

Not sure if I'm going to lose any weight this week since I'm constantly expelling all the garbage I've been eating for the past 6 months. It may take another week for my weight loss to actually show. So far I've been really good on my calories and getting proper macros.

Nice work, man. Good to see you back at it.

[BodyOfLaw]

MFP: RippedLaw. Looks like this will be a good comp. My week has been sucky but I'm hoping to at least maintain or drop a few ounces for tomorrow's weigh in. I'm not entirely sure how the holiday break broke my rhythm.

[Striation]

It looks like my calorie count vs. expenditure was spot on in Dec. The damage was a 20lb. weight gain 11.5 of which was fat. I am down 9lbs. already (water). The next 11 will be solid fat. Let's do this!

[morrikj777]

Nice work, man. Good to see you back at it.

Much appreciated. BB.com has been very awesome to me throughout the past few years. I'm glad to be back in the fray.

[morrikj777]

I just noticed there's a lot of 1981'ers in this thread. Sweet, showing some weight loss love from that generation.

[Suggestive]

Sorta plateaued at around 100 after cutting 30kg off, so Started IF last saturday. ended up losing 3kg this week, a lot more than I want (aiming for about 1/week). Definitely need to re-evaluate my caloric intake for the future.

Picture is about a month old, will hope to have a new one up showing my progress next weekend. Looking forward to seeing everyone elses progress!
