I feel inspired this time!!
What’s up everyone? I’ve been using MyFitnessPal for a while off and on now. I’m 40 years old and on May 1st got on the scale and was horrified when I saw it read 400 lbs. My story starts as a child I was always a stocky kid. At 18 I weighed 205 and was 5’7”. I moved out of my parents and started eating and drinking like…

200lbs to lose and looking for support/friends
A little about my current journey. Forgive the ADHD storytelling! I have been on and off MFP for a while, and I've battled with my weight for over 20 years, but 2020 was a turning point. All the stress and weight gain during the pandemic caused me to start blood pressure medication. Then we lost my grandmother quickly and…

High protein / lower carb snacks on a super strict budget??
Edit: I think I put this in the wrong place. Copying it over to the recipe board. I'm struggling with getting enough protein. I'm not vegan or vegetarian, but pretty close. I don't eat much meat and prefer not to eat more processed foods than necessary (both a personal preference and a budget thing). We eat a lot of meals…

Looking for other dedicated MFP friends
Hey! I've been using the app quite a while but I've been doing it kind of solo for a while and I just got off a big break. I figured I'd ask if there was anyone who was into this journey as much as I am who would like to be friends on here to help support each other.

Quick lunch ideas?
I am struggling to meet my calorie goal. I have morning and snack down pat as well as dinners. I end up skipping lunch and always in a hurry to find something to grab. Usually fast options are not healthy, so I end up with a yogurt parfait… my goal is to bake up some chicken for the week to add to salads etc…, but I’ve yet…

Old & New
I have a 15 year old granddaughter that I used to camp, hike and walk with when she was younger. I now have a one-year-old grandson who I want to do the same with.

Hi! Back on the wagon (again)
I wouldn't say I'm a yo-yo dieter, because I've been heavy most of my life. I once lost 60 pounds on WW, but then gained it all back over a course of time. Had some minor set backs with health and am just feeling crappy. I like to say menopause and the pandemic have not been kind to me since I have a job where I sit all…
