Calorie deficit
Hi everyone, probably a silly question... but with a calorie deficit if I eat 1200 calories in a day, does that mean I have to burn over 1200 calories a day? Thanks 😊

I Feel Fat and I'm Not Sure Why
I feel so low. I've lost 13 pounds since March 20, but I feel fat. Technically I'm still obese at 187 (I'm 5 foot four) but I think there may be more to it than that. There was a point weeks ago when I felt uplifted and excited about my fitness journey, but now I just feel like it's a grind. Shouldn't I feel better and…

Why eating too little calories is a bad idea.....
I have been on MFP since 2011 but only used it properly and the forums for the last 6 months, the number of posts I see (mostly) from women eating 1000 calories and under or netting less per day when they could lose by eating a higher and healthier intake is heart-breaking. When I used MFP in the past and was a serial…

Do you count vegetables
I was wondering if anyone doesn't log most green vegetables, gem squash and tomotoes when logging their food on myfitnesspal? I have been on diets before where those foods are free.

Starvation Mode - Adaptive Thermogenesis and Weight Loss
I’ve read many times that Starvation Mode is a myth or that it isn’t - while this irks me, it isn’t sufficient to push me to just add more noise to the debate. I recently read an interesting article that reviewed different aspects of adaptive thermogenesis, thinking it might be of interest to others, I’ve written a…

Successfully Weaning Off GLP-1?
I am about to start a 6-month subscription and looking for feedback and success stories on transitioning from meds and maintaing with lifestyle changes. All respect, I am NOT looking to be scrutinized for this choice vs. diet and exercise alone. There are many threads for that in MFP, including in the Debate section. Has…

Yep, lets do that.
Been injured for too long, and have something planned (not saying what - public forum) where being smaller than I am now would be beneficial. Note, I'm not quite overweight but preferred to stay on this somewhat higher weight over the past year or so, but it's too much for 'this'. Thus here goes! Start signal ->🔫

Weight Loss Rhythm
I have a weird kind of question, I guess it mainly depends on how an individual is goal-orientated. But which method of goal setting works better? "I will lose 50 lbs in one year" or "I will lose 10 lbs in two months"

Protein intake?
I just read an article from MFP that calculated my suggested daily protein should be 109 grams, but my diary in MFP has my daily goal of protein grams in the high 60's. What gives? I'm still new here. I'm learning a lot, but still so much I don't get.

Is 115 pounds a good goal weight for a 5’4” female?
I currently weight 273 pounds. My goal weight is 115 lbs. I chose this goal weight because when I used to weigh 145 pounds years ago, and I still had a stomach.

When would you buy new clothes?
I’m debating on when I should buy new clothes. I’m currently almost 40 pounds down and I can still wear all my old clothes.

Realisation
After a few days of not having any results when it comes to weight loss but having monumental results when it comes to feeling better I realized something crucial in the beginning of a weight loss journey it's not about how different your body looks it's not about looks it's not about the scales it's simply about how you…
