Strength Training on Vegetarian Diet
I have been strength training for years. YEARS. Eight years to be exact. My max weights have plateaued for years. YEARS. About six years to be exact. While I continue to keep lifting through injuries and medical issues, I would really like to see my one rep max numbers go up. I highly suspect the problem is my diet. For a…

hi everyone!! :)
I'm not new to fitness, but I am definitely new to MyFitnessPal. I had a CPT who suggested using this, but I never got to it. I always thought it was too much maintenance, but now I have nothing better to do and I want to try to make change for my body and see if my eating is really the problem (it is). I recently became a…

Activity Suggestions for Obese
I’m starting my weight loss journey after coming to terms with my size. I currently weigh 272 pounds and am 5’7”, so quite obese. I never considered myself exceptionally out of shape or unathletic, and I’m still quite young (early 20s), but I started avoiding physical activity as I gained weight. So I guess I don’t know…

Doing everything right, but not seeing progress
Hi there, I have been in a moderate calorie deficit for a year. I strength train 5 days a week with proper rest, hit 8-10k steps a day, eat 80% + whole foods (gains, fruits, veg), and eat 140 g protein a day. I sleep 7-8 hours a night and manage my stress. I am stalled on the scale. And worse, my clothes fit the same and…

Intermittent Fasting and Working out
Hello all, I've recently restarted IF 16/8 and it has helped me get past a plateau with my weight loss/fitness. My fasting begins at 9PM and ends at 1PM to correspond with my work hours-ish. Problem is, I was going to the gym in the morning around 9AM, and I find that I am light-headed doing the workouts I was doing…

Fitness trackers/watches, which ones integrate the best with MFP
I currently have a fitbit sense. It works pretty good, but drops true HR at times. Like when I’m on the stair mill. 10 minutes in, doing intervals, sweat pouring, working really hard and HR is 85. Then it will jump to 150 after a few minutes which is more realistic. Same with weights. I can be fully pumped, breathing hard…

Working out in the morning vs. working out in the afternoon
I work out six days a week Monday-Saturday for an hour to an hour and a half each time. I come home from work and get changed into my gym clothes and go straight there. My co-worker has been telling me about working out in the morning time instead of the afternoon. I decided to give it a try. Today for the first time ever…

OLD and ready for change!
Here I am again. At 62….5’1” and pushing 200. I still play competitive tennis, wrangle puppies and dogs at work and 40lbs overweight - 50lbs if you go by the charts. (can’t stand those charts) I started counting Macros this time - it’s like a puzzle and working. I’m married. Two kids. Two grandkids and a rescue dog. Tired…
