Today needs to be my day 1
I weighed myself this morning, I knew that I was gaining but my jaw dropped when I saw that number. I thought to myself it's no wonder why 4 year old asked me if I had a baby in my belly. I am carrying around my middle mostly, but I have extra inches all around, nothing fits like I want it to and I gaze at my closet in…

Dewey Decimals & Diets: A Librarian's Guide to Weight Loss in Marriage
Alright. Secret's out. I don't actually have a guide to weight loss in marriage. I was hoping you might be able to provide that part in exchange for a good book recommendation.

Trying again
Turning 50 this year and need to do something about all this extra weight. I have a hard time tracking consistently - I know all the things I should be doing but actually doing them consistently is hard. I hate when I go to doctor and it says "obese" on the form. I know I eat when stressed and eat when sad and eat when…

New to MyFitnessPal & tracking foods
I joined per VShred nutritionist suggestion to help track my macros and foods. Hopefully this’ll make it easier as learning all this can be overwhelming. Crossing my fingers it’ll become automatic soon.

I’ve been many sizes throughout my life but recently shot up 40 pounds and 6 dress sizes in a matter of less than 3 months. I also just quit drinking again after a relapse.

How do you folks not just ‘eat along’ w your significant other/family?

I’m trying to make better choices but it’s tough and time consuming. My fall back is eating whatever and whenever he eats. How to work on…

Starting over, under, and in between!
I keep getting in this rut of starting something new, giving up, finding something else, getting excited about that, and then giving up again. I have spent so much money on different plans and subscriptions. I would like to simplify everything. I started yesterday and had two donuts after church. I logged them and then ate…
