Question about MFP calories
Since joining MFP last late October, I set my weight loss goal at 1.5 lbs. per week with a, then BW of 200.0 lbs. Activity level selected was "not very active" because I sit for a living.

Gaining on Maintenance Calories
Hello, So according to MFP, my maintenance calories are about 1500, and I'm eating slightly less than that. However, I've still been gaining weight over just the past couple of days. I don't know what this means and what I should actually do to try to maintain. Anyone else having this issue? Thanks!

Is myfitnesspal healthy longterm?
I’m currently still in the process of losing weight(I have 11 more pounds to go), but I’m curious what other members do after they reach their weight goal. Is it (mentally)healthy to continue to use myfitnesspal on a day-to-day basis? I’m sure using myfitnesspal would be easy and pretty accurate but I’m wondering if that’s…

Starting a cut after a 2 month diet break
I started my 2019 cut on January 4th this year. Prior to starting my cut, I took a 2 month break from gym/tracking my macros.

Just passed 2400 days: Pondering
I clicked on my home page and found I've logged continuously for more than 2400 days. Every. Single. Meal. I've actually logged a few months longer - I traveled to South Africa for three weeks, logged everything, but didn't have internet access so it didn't 'count'. Good thing is that - well, I lost the weight I wanted to…

WW says for me to weigh 145. I weigh 157 and my weight loss has stopped last couple of months. Maybe this is what I am suppose to weigh. Or maybe summertime I can lose a few more pounds.

LOL: Weight Trending App!
So, I'm a happy Libra user, for weight trend tracking.

Terrified of maintenance!
I have successfully and fairly steadily lost 3 1/2 stone in about 1 year. Ideally I would love to loose another 1/2 - 1stone, but I seem to have hit a plateau. I’ve been the same weight (up and down 2-3 pounds) for the past 3 months. I am not necessarily looking for advice in breaking the plateau. I am fairly happy with my…
