Question for those of you who lost 20 pounds or more
Replies

This site/app only! It's amazing how much it helps! Thank you MFP!0
-
I used both MFP and WW for about a month, but it got to be too much to log into both. MFP is much easier because they have such a huge data base. I've lost 26lbs, and I credit the majority of it to MFP.0

Lost over 40.
MFP, diet, and exercise.
That's it.0 -
I've lost 23 pounds but didn't join MFP until April. I started my weight loss journey in January though.
Before MFP though, it was just watching what I ate and exercised.. I also see a trainer twice a month, where we lift weights and do cardio.0 -
I've used this for balancing food and P90 for exercise. I didn't follow any diet per se. Just watched my balance with MFP0
-
MFP only, and no more exercise than I did before MFP which is walking briskly with the dog a couple of miles a day.0
-
I've lost 30+ thus far, with much more to go, but I've lost the weight with this site/app only. ^_^
same only the app/site (started with the app back in nov. but didnt make an account til march or something like that)0 -
Just the site and exercise0
-
Just MFP and good old Jillian MIchael's :-)0
-
I used Daily Burn before MFP and there was not a community like this one. I was also losing at a lot slower rate. I have been here since January and can say tracking calories and exercise works the best for me. It's an eye opener to see what you are actually putting in your body.0

MFP only. Watch portions and exercise a lot (about 6 of 7 days a week).0
-
I've lost my weight just with MFP and exercise -- and if I'm being honest, not a ton of exercise. Before I got sick last month I averaged 30 minutes a day or so. Not much. But I don't follow any kind of "diet" plan, just watching my calories and keeping track of protein to make sure I'm getting enough.0
-
I only use this app and website. I dont need anything else. I love it and i am on here more than facebook now.0
-
I have lost 29 pounds so far and I have only used MFP. I must say that the app though is what has helped alot as it's allowed me to be able to keep my food diary up to date. I always have my iPhone with me to keep track on the spot what I eat. I had no idea earlier how much all the food added up so fast in calories. Definitely food portion size was a big problem for me.0
-
25 down so far and when I started it was just exercise and gave up soda lol now I found MFP and LOVE it
today was my 20th day on mfp and I have lost 5 pounds since joining just saying0 -
I really just used to to track my food intake. After having my daughter, I breastfed (or tried, really) for a month so afterwards I would be starving and wanting to eat everything. It helped me realize what I was putting in my mouth. I don't do any specific diet, I watch what I eat, I try my best to keep snacky foods away from me and exercise.0

I lost 35 pounds on Weight Watchers this past year but then found this website about three weeks ago and began using the food journals instead on here. I lost 2 1/2 using MFP.0
-
MFP gave me the info I needed to adjust my diet.
I thought I knew how to lose weight before I got here. I'd lost a bunch in Jr. high and kept it off for 25 years.
but turns out food has changed a lot in the past 40 years with additives and a tons of extra sugar. I'd enter foods that I had previously thought of as healthy and when I saw the stats on calories or sugar I'd be stunned.
I had 3 rail-thin sisters, but was blessed with a fat mommy who understood the struggle. She taught me how to make healthier choices without total deprivation.0 -
Hiya, I lost 27lbs in total with MFP, I've put on 6lbs whilst on maintenance and I'm back on the weight loss journey again trying to re-lose those 6lbs, which shouldn't take long. MFP is fantastic, I would never look at WW again!! best of luck with your journey :-)0
-
I have just used this website, but I do my food diary everyday, which has been a reality check of my caloric intake and I also execise at least 4 days a week!
Good Luck0
