Running advice
So I'm about to sign up for a "Zombie 5K" which will include obstacles along with the running. I'm not worried about the obstacles, it's the running I'm nervous about. I've never been good at running outdoors. I can "run" on an elliptical machine for two hours, I can walk outside forever, but whenever I've run outdoors in…

Saving too many calories for dinner?
So, the site sais I need to eat no more then 1300~ calories to loose 2 lbs a week, and 1600 for 1 lb a week, which is fine as it gives me some leeway to not try to be perfect and eat exactly as much as it sais, and is hopefully a push in the right direction either way. Though I find that I try to eat as few calories as I…

Most of my life I've been overweight. I'm 20 years old and currently 420 pounds; and that isn't very far from where I was in high school.

What's your plan?
Back in March 2012 I found this wonderful community. I lost nearly 30 pounds using MFP and exercising (Zumba)! July 2012 my husbands hours started to get cut so I felt the need to start looking for employment. Between July and August I fell off the wagon and I fell hard. Between that time and this February 2014, 20 months…

Really confused on calorie intake
I am so confused on what calorie intake I should have. MFP says 1200 and other sites say 1600. All I am trying to do right now is lose weight. I am doing 1200 right now and with excercise I have been under my intake the past two days, is that good? Bad? Will that prevent me from losing weight? I have no idea what to do?!?!

Needing to get serious about losing weight
I had refused to weigh myself for quite a while. When you are depressed, you don't want to feel worse by stepping on the scale. I decided to be brave and weigh myself today. 71.9kgs! How did i get here? Being on a budget doesn't help when you have to eat out. Stunner deals from hungry jacks are very cheap but high in kjs.…
