Didn't even know this app had forums.
So, that's neat.
I guess struggling to sleep is helping me out with this thing.

    You can't sleep? Are you taking any supplements or drinking caffeine after 2pm? Ask in food and nutrition if you have problems. Lots of advise that can help you.

    Try a cup of camomile tea before bed. OTC melatonin can also help.

    It's one of the coolest features here, you get motivated and meet people with your same goals. The community side was a game changer for me, I even enrolled in a gym cause of their motivation.

    This is what surprised me and has helped me stay consistent in logging in daily, meals, and exercise. I didn't do this the first time around, but I am glad I am doing it now. Everyone is supportive and crushing their goals.

    I have used chamomile tea from trader Joe's and it was the first time I had a felt fully rested in a long time. Also slept 9 hours for the first time in forever.

    You can also get a blue light filter app for your phone and computer so there is less strain on your eyes towards the end of the night.

    Hi, having trouble sleeping here too. Don't usually have this problem. But the plus size is that reading a bunch of these posts on mfp has inspired me to start working out again. Trying to lose about 50 more pounds to hit goal.

    I'm up to and poking around the forums. I enjoy seeing people's progress on some of the before and after threads.

    Yeah, I woke up at 2AM and can't go back to sleep, either.

    Maybe I'll get some chores done.

    Who do I think I'm kidding.

    :yawn:

    I love the forums, I no longer track my food on MFP (I use cronometer instead as I'm interested in tracking my micronutrients more closely), but still visit MFP daily just for the forums :smiley:
