Topic: 5k
Good morning everybody! I ran my 1st 5k Sat. morning in Little Rock, it was the Race for the Cure. It was great , I finished in 45 minutes, which is slow, but I finished. My husband and girls are so proud of me and I am so proud of myself. I have 39 more pounds to lose, and hopefully that will happen before next years race. I am an extremly slow loser. I am to blame( with my food choices) but wanted to let everybody know! Robyn

Thank you both for the welcome. I've been looking through the boards for a few months now and it is such a help.

Topic: Hi!
Hello everyone. I was banded this past Wednesday (the 14th) in Little Rock. My husband and I live in Ward but are from Texas originally.
I just wanted to come say hello to everyone here on the AR message board and introduce myself.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Topic: Health Tracker Update: Meals and Reports

Last week we released two major updates. First was the public release of OH Groups where any ObesityHelp member can now create their own Group. Second was the addition of Activity Tracking to Health Tracker, which provides a robust and easy to use tool to track and monitor your exercise and activity. Today we have added My Meals and an Activity vs. Weight Loss Report to Health Tracker. 

My Meals

My Meals allows you to group and store multiple food and beverage items as a custom meal that can be used over and over again. If you have meals that you eat on a regular basis, you will no longer need to log each food item individually. 

To access My Meals, go to your Health Tracker in My OH and click on the Nutrition tab. You will see My Meals listed under Nutrition.
Creating a new meal works similar to your Food Log. You can search for food items on the right and add the foods to the meal on the left. A Calorie Breakdown chart and Nutrient Summary Label are also available for each meal.

Once a meal is created you can add that meal to your Food Log from My Meals by clicking "i had this" or you can search for the meal from your Food Log.
When searching for a meal to add to your Food Log, all meals will be returned when "My Foods" is selected in search. So, to "drill down" on meals that you have created, select to only show "My Foods." When a new meal is created it may require up to 30 minutes for that meal to be indexed and become searchable.

Activity vs. Weight Loss Report

Adding to the Macronutrient and Export Reports previously available, there is now an Activity vs. Weight Loss Report. This report will allow to compare Average Time in Activity vs Weight over time, providing you with further insight into what impact physical activity as on weight loss and weight loss maintenance. In Health Tracker, click Reports and then select Activity vs. Weight Loss.

We hope these additions to Health Track reduce the time required to log your daily food intake and makes it easier to view how physical activity impacts your weight.  

Create your first meal now!

If you have any questions, comments or concerns about this release, please post them on the Main Message Board.
