New to the community
Hello everyone, I've been using My Fitness Pal on and off for a while, I've tried various diests and even lost 20 kg last year (44 lbs). But in June I got a newborn baby girl and it's been hard to stay on track, as she was... loud and needy. Now, three months into fatherhood and after regaining almost 10 kg (22 lbs), I'm…

Having difficulty with calories
Hi, I am relatively new to MFP. I consulted with a dietician in June about why it is so difficult for me to lose weight. She said I was not eating enough. I was consuming about 1100 calories per day. She gave me information & told me to eat 1200-1500 calories per day. I eat clean & healthy but my diet is limited due to…

I found a diet that hits the nail right on the head!
I really never tried weight loss in all my 67 years but when I was told to expect type 2 diabetes in my future I took the plunge. I was 232 lbs, 6-2 male, 67 years old. I decided to go all in over night. I went low carb, 80 or less gms daily and started a IF schedule of 14/10. Also stoped drinking, no junk food at all, all…

And back again
I’ve been here before and got down to a happy healthy weight then in December 23 while trying to be healthy I got knocked off my cycle. My back was broken is a few places, as was my pelvis and shoulder. I was lucky to survive and very fortunate not to have been paralysed. So, for much of 2024 I’ve either been bedridden or…
