Does anyone else feel bad for taking breaks sometimes?
Earlier I thought I should take a break on working out and just take a minute to be with myself and my niece while she is in town for the summer and shortly after thinking that I started feeling bad about it. Does anyone else get into that mindset? I feel like it could be a bigger sign that I need to take a break lol but…

1st Month almost completed
Trying my best to change my lifestyle back to that of eating healthy and exercising regularly. I was very committed to diet and exercise about 3 -4 years ago, and just suddenly stopped. I used having a son, work, day to day life as an excuse. I started to feel like crap, had chronic back pain, anxiety and insomnia. Joining…

Hey y’all!
I’m Katelyn, a SAHM momma and a women's ministry director. This is my second journey of losing weight. The first time I lost a bunch was back in 2018 after I had my second baby. Then, life happened: in three years we moved 4 times and during that time I had two littles and I had went back to school. Needless to say I…

Hello! New Joiner
Hi everyone! Just signed on yesterday and getting to grips with everything. I’m a mum with two small boys and have been eating too much (boredom) and exercising too little (lack of energy/time). I’m now going to try to lose 0.8kg or 2lb a week, by dancing daily for 50 minutes, and adding 3 runs a week in. I’d like to to…

Which activity level should I chose
So I'm attempting to lose about 15 pounds. To do so, I have decided to do the insanity program. I love the program but it is hard on your body as it is 2 months of working out 6 days a week (HIIT) for 40-65 minutes depending on the workout. However, I am also an officer worker who sits around most of the day which lowers…

Intro, getting fit for a vacation.
Hello, I am here to get fit for an upcoming vacation and generally to lose some of the "covid weight". I know getting fit for a vacation is not usually considered a healthy motivation. That's just what has me finally taking action. That and the fact that I got a cast off yesterday after a minor ankle surgery. I guess that…

Hello!
Hi! Just started with this app. Had Noom before but that got too expensive for me, so I'll just be counting calories and logging exercise here with the knowledge Noom imparted in me. I am a university student, in my 20s...depression, the pandemic, and stress eating got the best of me, and now I'm trying to get healthier.…

57 year old Newbie!
POST MENO. Hi-Trying to figure out why I can’t lose 12 lbs! I’m an active person with 3 grandchildren from 1-7. I’m fat pone from my knees to belly. I figured maybe I needed to go the macro route.

Looking for group. Trying to lose about 20lb.s
Hi. Used fitness pal before with some success. I set a lower goal weight last week and I think it would be great to make some friends on here to encourage each other and share workouts and recipes and such. Say "Hi" if that sounds good.

The Slow Creep
Hi all, in 2020 I lost ~40 lbs logging food and through regular exercise. Well, I’m happy to say I’ve maintained the regular exercise which has been great for my mental health and body (and heart too I guess), but I’ve slacked off the logging. I’ve gained almost 10lbs since logging regularly (since about Oct ‘21). I’m sure…
