I'm so hungry!
I'm not meeting my calorie deficit goals very well, but I'm still starving. Nearly 700 calories over the other day and I was still so hungry. Today I'm starving unto feeling like I'm going to throw up after dinner and already over my calorie goal. I'm breastfeeding, but that should only be around 300 extra calories. I…

Breastfeeding calories?
I'm 9 weeks pp and 99kg, I'm pumping round the clock but I'm an undersupplier (~650ml per day). I gained a lot of weight with with my 3 year old but with this pregnancy I didn't gain anything.

Breast feeding calculator
Alot of the population are breast feeding (which uses over 500+ calories a day!), there is nothing to calculate this into daily calorie amounts on myfitnesspal. This would be a great feature and make the app safer for Mums & babies.

Eating estimated calories burned
I'm sure this topic has been discussed ad nauseum, but I poked around searching and couldn't find what I wanted. I have always ignored any estimated "calories burned" from machines, MFP, and my Fitbit. I just assume they are probably wrong, especially since I am hypothyroid and my metabolism is a bit sluggish. That said,…

Who's losing weight and breastfeeding?
I initially lost about 7kg and have 15kg to get to my goal weight of 65kg. I've been watching going hard the last 4 weeks eating 1500, my BMR is 2300 with exercise 7 days a week. My fitbit has my TDEE as 3000ish so I should have lost a kg a week with the exercise and deficit combined but I did a weigh in 4 weeks since…

And.... I'm back
In early February 2020 I had my first son the day before my 30th birthday. After his birth I weighed 216 lbs. I tried using myfitnesspal after I was 6 week postpartum but I couldn't wrap my mind around calorie tracking. In June 2020 I decided to try WW since it seemed simpler at the time to wrap my mind around. By February…

Gaining Weight During Pregnancy and Losing It Postpartum
Gaining Weight During Pregnancy and Losing it Postpartum I see these questions pop up all the time on MFP. To my knowledge, there isn't a solid thread that thoroughly goes through all of this, and MFP has no official Pregnancy or Breastfeeding setting. Having been through the experience myself, I've decided to create this…
