There’s Power in Numbers!!
Greetings fellow fitness pals! Slowly making a few gains but, I’ve learned that I do better with accountability. Looking to connect with others who are focused on being the best version of themselves. Any pescatarian’s out there? Would love to swap recipes (especially Mediterranean type recipes).
Currently weight 150 Lbs. Looking to hit 175-180 Lbs
I have lost a lot of weight in the past 2-3 years and I am looking to gain at least 20 lbs as soon as humanly possible. I started going to the gym routinely since the last week of June 2022, drinking "super" protein shakes with fruit, peanut butter, etc first thing in the morning at 530 AM before I go to work, and I am…
New to MFP
Hey new to MFP and can’t wait to get started 😄 feel free to add me or check out my recipes over on instagram.com/darrynsfood
Is it bad if i had 20-30g of added sugar in 2 weeks and then ate 100g in 1 day?
Also how can i burn it off quickly?
Hot Sauce & Weight-Loss
I'm a big hot sauce fan and started putting the stuff on everything. I also heard it can be good for weight loss cause it can increase your metabolism. Does anyone follow this idea and have a fav hot sauce? My fav at the moment has to be Red Habanero & Black Coffee from Queen Majesty.
Salad
What do you like to put in your salads? Needing some new ideas😊
High calorie snack options?
Looking for ideas for high calorie snack options that won’t make me feel super bloated and sluggish. I’m desperately trying to gain weight but I’m having a hard time because I get full really easily and have a pretty low appetite in general. I also can’t eat peanuts or peanut butter, which I know is a common suggestion to…

Hi

Bodybuilder to Obese
Hello, Yes, I am a former bodybuilder that is now obese. How does that happen you say? Well, it takes an all-or-nothing type personality. I went from working out 2 or 3 times a day, to eating 2 or 3 servings for dinner. It has been a roller coaster. Not only physically, but mentally. It’s hard to admit my story because I…
Red meat
Has anyone given up red meat? Going to give it a try to see if it makes me feel any better. Curious about benefits

However I have managed to clear alot of unnecessary stuff from my calendar…
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…
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…
Option to "check" (✅) individual foods and whole meals after consuming them.
I always preplan what I will eat the day before. I love doing that, but it can be confusing at times to remember what I actually ate and didn't eat yet (especially after studying and such.. I'm very dizzy). I'd like an option to check/tick (✅) a logged food, to indicate that I actually ate it, and an option to check/tick…
Keto or Low Carb go to snacks
Hey awesome people, I've been on and off Keto for years. Low carb sometimes can get repetitive. I was looking for ideas to help keep my net carb low. I use low carb 2g tortillas and low carb bread to help.
Has Anyone SUCCESSFULLY Given Up Sugar & Flour?
I have a sugar addiction. I am well versed in nutrion & health. I know it is bad for me. I know the consequences. Despite that, I cannot stop eating it. I hide my sugar habit from others. I eat it in the middle of the night in bed. This is the short version of my story. I know it is a serious addiction affecting my health…
I moved and Weight Loss has been a challenge
So I moved into a new place and i'm settled in....I've been working out and watching my diet. I was going down for awhile and then I have been shooting back up on the scale. I eat in a healthy caloric deficit and workout 4-5x a week every week. Why am I struggling to lose weight? I miss fitting in my US Size 7 shorts. I…
Gained weight rather than losing
Hello friends, returning back to MFP with a hope to keep my hope of losing weight alive. Need some real motivation and push. I do little to moderate exercise, love foods, drink enough water (1.5 to 2L) and keep adding weight to my body 😌
New and in need of support...
Hello! My name is Deva. I am new here and looking for some MFP friends to help keep me motivated with this. I've always had a hard time trying to lose weight and i'm at my worse and it has affected my health in terrible ways. I am nearly hitting 25 years old and at 480 pounds. I also can't walk properly because of this and…
I actually don't mind artificial sweetener
I actually don't mind artificial sweetener. I like the 60 calories chobani all flavors. I love Coke zero and passion tea with splenda. I guess I would just like suggestions or new foods to try.
Hello from Seattle :D
I used MFP years back to lose weight and it absolutely worked! But then... life. It happens to the best of us. My weight has fluctuated since about 2015 and I'm ready to do some goal setting again. I've also been fairly recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia, so I'm doing a lot of anti-inflammatory cooking, so if any of you…
Foods related to recovery and lean muscle building
Can anyone suggest foods with high glutamine and creatine?
Calorie Intake
The app suggests I intake 2500 calories a day to maintain my weight (I can only manage 1900). I literally would be stuffing myself to get those calories in me even though I have a healthy appetite. Once I have deducted 600 calories from my daily workout does this mean I will be a skeleton in 6 months?.
Create recipe from my foods
Currently the only way to add ingredients to a recipe is adding through the web or bulk. I’d like to see an option somewhere that allows me to use food items that I’ve created (in the My meals, recipes, and food section). This will save me time when creating my recipes as I won’t have to look through a long list of search…
The banana limit
Hey guys, I wanted to find out based on the knowledge of the individuals present on this forum to tell me what is the "healthy" limit for consuming bananas. I really seem to love the fruit, and it does happen that i consume 6-7 bananas per day; even if my stomach rumbles for the rest of the day. It is my number one item i…
Doing it right
Hello, this is Tumbleweed 7834. I haven’t posted because I always forgot the 7834. Are there 7833 tumbleweeds ahead of me?
100 lbs lost, 75 lbs gained back. Yo-yo weight loss journey.
Myfitnesspal helped me once, it can help me again. Back in 2019 I had lost 100 lbs. by tracking all my food through this app. I also became involved with this community and made some great friends. I had written a post about depression playing a big role in my weight gain over the years. So many wonderful people reached…
