Re-start, hopefully the last *crosses fingers*
Last summer, I was able to go from 140 to 124 lbs due to kickboxing and being on a really strict diet. Now, I am back up to 130 lbs and aiming for 110. Not doing kickboxing anymore but hoping to eat better and mentally be motivated to do this. Goal is to be 120 lbs by February 18th, when I have a trip to California. We…

Reigniting the passion
I've had a personal trainer since October and strength/endurance wise I'm the strongest I've ever been. I want to lose about 30 lbs. I lost 80 before. I'm 40 lbs up from that but my composition is a *lot* more muscle than I had when I lost the weight. I'm starting to really hunker down on my diet and mental clarity again…

Stuck - want to lose weight and gain muscle
Have dropped almost 20 lbs from my peak, know I could drop another 10 but as I put on muscle the scale isn’t moving… I seem stuck. 20% carb, 40% fat, 40% protein. But I can’t keep up with the amount of calories everyone (and the app) says I should be consuming. Seems like getting lean and gaining muscle can be at odds with…

Calorie Deficit - Not Eating Enough? - Advice - Help?
Hey all, I've been on MFP for a a few years now on and off. At my thinnest (years ago in high school) I was 150-ish.

I'm currently 25 years old, 6' 0" (female) and weigh in at 193…

Hi all! New here.../wave
I just turned 64 and am down to my last 10-25...not sure yet. I have been on a simple letting go of things I don't need any more mission. This has included pounds 230 through 140 over the past 3 years. I am discovering that healthy weight maintenance really has nothing to do with the food itself so I am trying to allow the…

I'm lost...
Hi there everyone! I'm sitting here after eating myself to the point of sickness for the past 2 days while wearing my "fat pants" that somehow also got too tight. I want to get out of this rut, and I figure my brain should focus on one thing, and take it one day at a time. But what do I focus on? I'm staring at all these…

Greetings!
My name is Alexis Pike! I joined last year when I decided to make a change in my health habits. My personal trainer suggested I use MFP, which I did, but I have never been successful using the program since I joined in Oct. 2020 (longest consistency was about a week). However, my physical and mental health have become of…

Fast forward 5 years
Hello fellow MFP! I didn't even realize I had signed up for this account 5 years ago, so I had my first weigh in and then crickets. I just logged in again to keep accountability and synced it with my Fitbit. I've been up and down in my weight, and looking to keep it off. It stinks that I am in love junk food. Most recently…

Can I eat the calories I burn?
So my recommended amount is 1200 calories however today I burned 600 calories from ballet and walking I entered this and my calorie intake went up to 1800. Does this mean I should eat 1800? I asked my friend and she said I should still stick to 1200 and the calorie tracker is probably overestimating what I have burned
