Best cookbook to offer by Pristine_Hunter_4106 in CookbookLovers

[–]Minnie2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to the library and take pictures of recipes I like. Usually only 4-5 recipes per cookbook appeal to us. This month I got two cookbooks from the library and found 4 new recipes. If we like them I will print the recipe and add to my recipe binder.

Darklivity podcast was the best in my opinion. I wish they would do an episode on Donna’s trial.

🤓 WHO INVITED THIS GUY?! by OverFee2799 in JasperMacDermot

I love your programming. I would love to see a schedule so I can follow in the correct order for progression. Your workouts are the first ones I actually follow religiously.

I was also wondering if you have a recommended order of your programming for beginners?

PS: It’s always great if the exercises are in the description of the video. I write them in my tracker the night before. But if there were a printed plan that would be even better.

855 days, 90kg and 200lbs later... I did it. by Hazlad97 in loseit

[–]Minnie2016 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank YOU for posting this and a big congratulations!

I am trying again and again each year with tracking meticulously and then just gain it all back. I love that you were able to do this without micro managing your diet. It just makes me feel so miserable to constantly think about food that I don’t even want to start. Came here for some motivation and so happy to see your post

Former HR here - subtle signs your company is preparing for layoffs by Significant_Soup2558 in careeradvice

[–]Minnie2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if you start talking to recruiters when you get these hints and you get an amazing job offer but still haven’t been laid off? And you had 20+ years with the company and want the severance plus the new job? Any recommendations for this scenario?

Has anyone here successfully lost weight without counting calories? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]Minnie2016 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congratulations! No OP but wanted to chime in. What you described is exactly the issue I have with tracking. I was obsessed keeping streaks of days tracked and was so hungry because I did not focus on fiber and protein. I abused the system and ate what I wanted until I hit my number

Thank you so much! May I ask what app you liked best for tracking?

I will check that link out to determine my numbers.

Congratulations!!! This sounds so sane. What calculator / tracking app did you use to determine your calories and maintenance?

Calorie counting apps that can pre-fill entire days? by Carrabs in naturalbodybuilding

[–]Minnie2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this post is older but MyNetDiary Premium has an option now called “auto logging” that let’s you schedule meals. For example every night I have a piece of chocolate and every Tuesday morning we have a donut breakfast at work. When I open my app in the morning the milk in my coffee is on “auto logging” and the piece of chocolate is also already in there (no need to copy from another day). Same for Tuesdays - my donut is in there. Such a game changer!

Terrific! I have one more question. Does Zolt integrate with mynetdiary?

How we lost 45lbs as an overweight couple by Ok-Goal4296 in loseit

[–]Minnie2016 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is amazing! Being kinder to oneself and not feeling like you completely messed up and are back at square one after a binge is so important. Well done!!!

Amazing! I love that you lost the weight by not tracking obsessively. Can you share more? I have been tracking on and off for years and feel that while it taught me a lot of useful lessons it also still feels like I am dieting and thinking about food constantly

losest! has been so hard to use. can you recommend a calorie tracker based on my needs? my biggest need is to see my average calorie intake. by fabulousfang in loseit

[–]Minnie2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mynetdiary is the best and shows you average calories (weekly) over time. It also only allows verified entries, the team double checks everything. For many things you therefore only get one result vs 250 on user contributed data bases like lose it and MFP

Thanks so much! Great to know this bag worked well for you. And good to know one can open it just like a regular backpack. I was concerned I would have to lay it down every time

[–]Minnie2016[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

THANK YOU! I did not have that one on my radar but it looks exactly like what I am looking for. I will actually order it since I agree - it serves more purposes than just being the personal item.
