FREE Customized Personal Weight Loss Eating Plan! (Not Spam or MLM)
This is not spam, not selling anything, no outlinks, not a sparkly unicorn. It's also not the quick, easy miracle method you've dreamed of . . . but if you follow it, it will work. For starters, log what you're eating right now. First, tweak what you're eating to hit calorie goal. Review your food log every day or two.…
Starting Fresh!
Hi all, I am a diabetic (T2) and have always been on the heavier side. My target is to lose about 30 kg (~65 lbs). I started running back in March 2024 and never focused on my diet and eating habits. To take this seriously, I'm here to make friends and get healthier together. Open to friend requests!
Tortoise and the Hare
I've always been a little overweight all my life, borderline between obese and overweight at times, but never in the normal category. It's never bothered me too much because I was extremely active in dance, but such is the way of dance classes, I was pretty much always the biggest girl there. I had lots of attempts in my…
MFP nutrition plans
Hi! Have any of you tried the nutrition plans provided by MFP? If so what did you think? Which ones did you like and which ones were not for you? I’m trying to lose weight and am mostly sedentary. I can’t add much exercise due to some physical issues so I’m focusing on diet. I find I am often hungry and am struggling to…
🫣😌💪 Hey!
New to mfp. I was 82 kg in April. Now I am 68, aiming for 64 in the next 5-6 weeks. My goal is to have good enough body for having tattoos. Tattoos and ripped body are not the same, I get it. But there's a mental image in my mind and want to achieve it. Anyway, looking forward to how it all turns out. Btw, I practice…
Scared but hopeful
Hi everyone! I'm new to the community and generally new to all things health. I really need to lose weight for health purposes (and boy would I eventually love a flatter belly) but I'm scared of becoming obsessed with calorie counting and developing an eating disorder. I'm a very anxious person and I know I'm prone to…
Some thoughts on "Starting Over"
Starting Over Since starting to use MFP – I have noticed a steady stream of people writing “starting over” posts. They tell the age old story of “I tried and failed, now I'm trying again”. There is often an unhealthy dose of self-flagellation – as if beating up on yourself is actually going to help. There is often the plea…

I really need support/advice
Hi so I’m really struggling and frustrated and don’t want to get off track because I’m demoralized here. In 2018 I had a total hysterectomy with my ovaries out putting me into surgical menopause (very different from natural menopause- like hormones completely gone instead of low and it’s an abrupt change versus gradual). I…
Curious Scorpius' recomposition accountability thread!
Greetings! I am Curious Scorpius. I kept an accountability thread in the past on a different website, which is sadly no longer functional. I found that thread to be really helpful for keeping me on track with my fitness goals and feel less alone in my journey. I'm soft tissue injury prone and don't recover as quickly as I…
Struggle to shed 20 kg, arthritis and fibromyalgia
I will accept all friends requests. I am very crushed at my night-binging and restrictive-binging behaviours. I decided to try to eat a maintain weight for my goal weight and will minus 300 kcal. With possibly days that zi eat a bit more. I might take 1-2 years to shed this, but I hope to get rid of them for good, and to…
A guide to get you started on your path to Sexypants.
I generally think that people put emphasis on things that either don't matter at all or only matter a small amount while ignoring the things that matter a great deal. Overview of what I think is important: * Eat the appropriate caloric (and macronutrient) intake for your goals and track intake accurately. I think eating…

Guess who's back...back again...
Well that was a fun 5 years. Not away from the app, just the weight loss journey! Brief back story: Had an operation in 2001 that meant my fairly active self was unable to do any real exercise for a few years, cue 70lbs+ weight gain, followed by the terrible self-esteem and all that horrible stuff, the fad diets, the…

118kg > 60kg - I'm going now!
Hi! I guess this is the next start of my journey. I say next start, because I've started many times. Just never stuck with it. I'm Jackie! I'm 32 and from the cold north, a.k.a Sweden.

New to MFP
Hello everyone I’m new to the app been on it for 14 days already and trying my best to stay focused and motivated but some days are hard to stay in track, specially when my emotions are so bad like a roller coaster!
New to the App!
Hello- I'm trying to lose 30 pounds by July!
Help! My weight loss has slowed to a crawl!
After hitting my first mini goal of 20lbs, I've only lost 0.7lbs in the last three weeks. I believe I've hit my first plateau, it's frustrating. Anyone have tips or advice how to bust through a plateau?
First time poster. Sharing my story
Hello! I'm Zach. I've been using mfp off and on for around a decade, but I've never posted on the forums. Figured I might as well give it a go and share a bit about my journey. I've been uncomfortable with my weight for as long as I can remember. Even as a child, I was on the heavy side. I spent my whole life thinking…
Foundation, foundation, foundation (Alternative title: In weight loss, I am the dog.)
I'm a professional dog trainer and a dog sports competitor -- stick with me, I have a point. One of the big principals in dog training is basically about laying a strong foundation, and only increasing the difficulty when you have success 80+ percent of the time. Another one is that you make getting it right as obvious and…
Hit my first mini goal today!
I've lost my first 20lbs! 21.6 to be exact. I even broke out some of my "what if pants" and was able to wear them. I cut almost all carbs out this past week and learned my body loves sugar and carbs if I eat just a small amount I maintain or gain weight. I'm going need all the motivation I can get because I love carbs 😁…
Looking for friends!
Started my journey back in January and have officially lost 21.5lbs as of this morning! Looking to have other people on my feed to encourage and interact with. Feel free to add me and message me! :) <3
