Discouraged but digging in
Hi all, I'm new to this forum and a little new to MFP. I just changed to MFP after using the WW app for a year with very little success. I'm in New Orleans, 56, mother of 2, working FT now after working just PT for 20 years, so doing some shuffling! I lost 24lbs on WW last year after working the plan really hard. I lost…

DUTCH en DIK (maar op weg naar minder)
Hallo allemaal, Ik ben een vrouw van 55 jaar, moeder van een volwassen zoon en heb een fulltime baan. Al decennia kamp ik met enorm overgewicht. Gevaarlijk en ongezond, maar ben ik niet in staat geweest om tot verandering te komen. Deze zomer ging de knop om. Ook vandaag ben ik op weg naar een gezond gewicht en dat is een…

Newsfeed
Well I can’t believe they have gotten rid of the newsfeed, it was a way of liking posts and commenting to others on their progress and saying well done as well as sharing our own updates and successes, or failures. Time to find a new food logging app I think and leave MFP after 9 years in total. What a shame, will miss the…

I live in a seniors' community with people over 100 I envy!
I'm 73 and have been overweight since puberty. I know how to lose weight and how to eat well doing it. What I lack is stick-to-it-iveness. Being heavy is affecting me adversely and if I want to be happy and healthy in my 90s and beyond, I need to clean up my act. I've been in limbo being hubby's caretaker but he's now…

Alcohol is DEFINITELY Hindering Weight Loss
I quit drinking for about a week and noticed how much flatter my belly was and how much better I felt physically. It's hard to explain, but I felt much less bloated and squishy. I have fallen off the wagon but recognize I need to get started again. My husband is giving up alcohol for 30 days and I feel guilty that I'm not…

Hi and thank you for the post
I've been a MFP member off and on for 15 years. I just went through my records online after signing up again for the tenth time. In 8 years, I've gained 20 pounds; I'm well over 200 and want to get back into Onder land. I'm hoping to stick to it this time. I'm trying the Dash Diet and hoping it will be the final try that…

Day to day…
Before retirement weekends used to be hard days to stay on program. Now that retirement is here, every day is just as hard. I’ve started a new routine at night before bedtime. I review the day’s food log and try to log tomorrow’s meals and exercises to follow. I seem to need a plan or a guide each day. I don’t always…

Looking for a logging accountability partner.
I'm having a real hard time staying motivated to log my food. I need to do it so my dietician has good data to make decisions with me on my roadmap. Looking for someone (or more than one) who needs a little help nudging on the "tracking for good" side of things. Logging my food is so loaded with all the weight loss stigma,…

Irreversible damage
Anyone here ever get depressed when they look at their body and see "irreversible damage"? I do. I've got stretch marks (I've never had kids), I've got flabby fat on my stomach, under my arms and arm pits. I am sure with plastic surgery I'd be able to get it reversed but that's just not an option. I worry that with the…

Ms. Frizzle is the voice I want in my head
That's the inner me I aspire to. She looks at obstacles as a scientist, you know - try something, make mistakes, learn from mistakes, try again, get messy. She is never beating people up, calling them dumb or failures, or losers, or broken.
