  • 3 years ago I was almost 280 pounds. My lowest was 208. I'm back at 215.8 and am trying to lose to at least 160-170 so that I can get all my extra skin removed...I get depressed because I have rheumatoid arthritis and it hurts to work out, but I am motivated to get healthy for my 3 year old son and to feel better. :) Please add me if you would like!

    I have 100+ pounds to lose, and I could really use the support. I've been following my plan religiously for the past 2 weeks and haven't lost a single pound. :-( It's discouraging and makes me want to quit. Going to keep at it, though!

    Feel free to add me anytime - initially I want to lose 100-120 but my absolute ideal goal is to lose 134lbs, I'm currently 274lbs and I think for my height and build 140 is the ideal for me personally. It's a bit above the 'middle' of my 'ideal weight range', but still within it, but I think any less and it wouldn't suit me too much. I previously lost 84lbs in 6 months, then gained back about 14-20lbs over a couple of years of back to being sedentary... I'm back to exercising now, but it's not dropping off as quick as last time, so it must be my age lol (33 this Sunday coming! :neutral_face: ) Hopefully once I'm back to a routine after these holidays the food will be even better controlled and I'll push the exercise a bit more and see what happens in a week or two!
  • I have about 130 to lose . Good luck to all of us

    Hi everyone,
    I am starting medifast and wondering how to incorporate it into my fitness pal? How do you work it so MFP helps you in losing weight. So curious. I want to do medifast and MFP together. RL, I want to join you on your journey of losing 100lbs in 1 year. We just have to decide that we are ALL IN or ALL OUT. I dont think there is middle ground, especially at first.

    MFP is simply a way to record calories in and out. It is pretty simple - when our calories out exceed our calories in we lose weight. 1 pound requires about a 3000 calorie deficit.

    The problem with stuff like medifast for me is that I know I have to change the way I live and special food plans are not how I live. So I'm simply using MFP to help me make better choices in food selection and as making sure I eat less.

    MFP lets you set calorie goals based on your current weight and a desire to stay even, lose up to 2 pounds per week in 1/2 ld increments, or gain up to 2 lbs per week in 1/2 pound increments.

    I think the lower increments are there because of research indicating that smaller losses per week are more sustainable over the long run. There are studies that indicate otherwise too.

    I set my goals are 1.5 weight loss per week and then make sure to record what I am eating. If I go over today, well I just do. Also I am not trying to record every bit of ketchup or butter - I am aware of those amounts but I know if I try to capture it all I'll get frustrated and quit. So I set my goal at 1.5 per week and I am way happy with 1 lb per week.

    Lost 65 lbs that way last year on my way to losing 200.


    So you would simply record all of what you are eating of your medifast foods in MFP to record calories. If you are doing something really low in calories then MFP is going to warn you to eat more.

    Good luck! Or should I say welcome to the hard work of losing - there is no magic pill and there is no luck about it. Just eat less and more around more.
