As it turns out yesterday, quite by accident, I ate exactly what the algorithm has set for me based on goals. That’s known as “eating to bike and biking to eat.” Ideally, you create a calorie deficit, which leads to weight loss. Ideally, you don’t come in from a run and run to the kitchen to eat all those calories back. That means every time I exercise, the calories I’ve burned show up as “credits” in MFP. But then I remembered that MFP is integrated with my Garmin Connect app. They all have pros and cons, like some have limited databases of foods, cost money, or have ads, and so on. (I’m not being compensated for this post but hey, Under Armour, hit me up!)īefore I jumped back into MFP, I looked at some other options. Without making it a hard and fast New Year’s Resolution, I resolved to try it again. Since I’m riding my bike less to free up some time for other things and to increase my energy levels, I figured I’d give MFP another shot. Being heavier isn’t good for overall health, and it has its challenges. But that doesn’t mean I like it or I gave up trying to reduce pounds. I’m a big proponent of striving to be fit regardless of your size, and while I’m not nearly as big as many Americans, I’m still a fathlete (fat + athlete).
