Over 60 Women losing weight
I am one of those women over 60 and I am losing weight again. I don't feel over 60 and I sure hope I don't look either. LOL! :smile: But I do know that being this age and working on getting fit is a lot harder than when I was 30. So I just make each day and do the best I can. My daughters have both a big help. Thank you…

Record for Signing In??????
Way back in December 2012, our youngest son had a major surgery at Mayo Clinic, Rochester. On the way home he commented that he would like to see both my wife and me live a lot longer by losing some weight and for my wife to quit smoking (She did a year ago in March). He gave me the link to myfitnesspal and suggested I try…

First NSV post
My first NSV since downloading Myfitnesspal and actually logging my meals and exercise the last few days is that I noticed when I looked in the mirror my back fat looked less prominent and my skin had an over all glow! I also noticed I looked less bloated even if I neccessarily wasn’t feeling it or thought I was, and it…

Lost 4 lbs in 1 week!
I would just like to share my routine on how I lost 4 lbs. I was really surprised when I weighed in yesterday, I was only expecting like 2 lbs something. I just followed my calorie counting (1380 cal/day) usually I would only have 1,000-1,200/day. I added GNC Total Lean 25 shake, their Pre-diet cleanse for 2 days and…

I’m a teen (f) who weights 155 lbs at 5’2. I’ve been working out for 17 days so far and all I’ve seen is more muscle. I decided to start restricting calories to see if it changes everything. Can I please have some advice to help me? Edit- just realized I’m on the wrong board.

Daily checking in.
I recently saw a post on daily accountability and this resonated with me. I think this is what I need but where and how!? Could MFP be the answer? I have unsuccessfully tried Noom, WW and for the last 4 months a personal coach to lose the weight. Instead I have steadily increased my weight by 2 kg!! I am a mother/…

A picture is worth a thousand words. From 288 to 178! How did I do this? By myself? My own knowledge? NO WAY!! I had gone from 288 to 256 that way, but was already not progressing in 2010! I did an online search and found a site now closed. When that site (Sparkpeople) closed we went looking for another weight loss group…

30 lbs down
After a cancer journey and major surgery removing multiple tumors and organs in 2022 I gained 30 lbs rapidly. After months of pain and recovery I started working on getting back to my surgery weight.
