20 year old female looking to drop 100+ pounds
Or maybe only 90, or maybe 130. I have no clue. Anyway, like I stated I'm a 20 year old female, 5'6", roughly about 260 pounds. I have no "goal weight" as I have no idea what weight would look good on me. So as of now I'm just saying about 100 pounds and will determine the goal when I get there (or at least a lot closer)!…

Starting over! Thyroid patients help!
Hi There, I joined MFP two years ago, and have had great success! I lost 30lb in my first year, and was feeling, and looking great! Then, in what seemed like overnight I lost all ambition. I was tired all the time, I could feel my heart racing for no reason and I was very easily agitated. I chalked it up to stress, and got…

5'6" SW 175 - 180. What was your path to success?
I'm really confused as to how many calories I should be eating to see a steady weight/fat loss of around 1.5lb a week. I've always been a pretty healthy eater - and yes, by that, I also mean low-fat, which seems like such a dirty word these days! However, I eat plenty of fruit and veg, non-processed food, low-salt intake…

Thinking about using TDEE, but unsure about the numbers.
Full disclosure: I work in the humanities, I suck at math. I need help. I started tracking and doing the 30DS three weeks ago. I'm not taking any rest days from the shred, so I'm on day 21, and I am doing 20-30 minutes on the elliptical 4-5 days a week as well. I have been mostly at/under goal using MFP's numbers, though I…

Too few Calories diet doesnt put you in starvation mode?!
I have been thinking about this for awhile. I have noticed that when I eat a very few calories like less than 1000 calories a day, I do actually lose so much weight faster. I been told that when you eat less than 1200 calories, your body goes to starvation mode, which lowers your metabolism and slows down the weight loss.…

Yesterday's net calories have changed?
Am I going nuts, or is it possible my net calories for yesterday changed overnight? I usually check the site before I go to bed to make sure I logged everything, and I am almost always within 50 calories or less of my goal. But when I just looked back over the last week, my net calories were more like 100 cals (or more)…

New member
Apparently I joined some time ago and immediately forgot. I haven't logged in for a month. I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by the site so I'm spending some time looking around. I'm using Beyond Diet and it concentrates on the amount of protein, carbohydrates and fat, not calories. This will take some adjustment. I'd love…

Exercise increasing my caloric intake?
Hi, I just started this program, and I am a bit confused. My allotted daily calorie intake is 1200. I added a workout which is supposed to burn approx 600 calories. After adding the workout, myfitnesspal increased my daily caloric intake by 600 (which is what I burned off at the gym.) Is this counter-productive? I am…

Maintenance vs weight loss cal intake
Has anyone calculated the maintenance calories at their goal weight, and just eaten that amount instead of eating the weight loss amount? (For example, I'm eating ~1200-1400 cals+ ~half of my exercise cals, but if I ate at maintenance for my goal weight I should just be eating about 1700 cals daily and ignoring exercise…

How do MFP's static and exercise calorie burns correlate?

I'm a 45 year old man, 6', was 241 lbs at the outset, and was coming out of a pretty sedentary (subjective term) two year span during which I was working full-time at a desk job and then studying at a desk all night for grad school. Although fat, I still have…
