Adding Wegovy to my journey...start date, 7-14-2024
I'm 59 1/2 years old and have been struggling with my weight from about age 28 or so. Nothing sticks. I am not a yo-yo dieter. Except for a stint with WW in my early 30s, I've never successfully lost weight. Mostly it just creeps up and up all the time. I got a personal trainer at age 50. Then, I tried WW, Noom, Keto,…

Yo-yo dieter, seeks healthy relationship with food!
Hello 👋 For most of my life I have been on one “diet” or another. The last 6 years have been extremely challenging mentally, however after a humongous amount of work I am now content 🙌 My next challenge is to finally tackle the weight (which has sadly got out of all proportion - unless I’m next to a walrus). Next year I…

Any tips for sleeping?
I stay up like every night until 4am and than sleep in till 2pm. But at least 2 nights a week I pull all nighters and end up being awake for 36-40+ hours. It's so bad for me, and it's not good for my body or health. I lose more weight when my sleep is healthier, and I just feel better about myself. But it's so hard for me…

What happens if you don't get 100g of protein a day?
Seems today was a bit more carb heavy, and adding a protein shake would put me over my calories by 100! I am going to be doing heavy exercise later so maybe it'll be okay. My question is this: What happens if you get like 60-80g of protein a day? Do your muscles atrophy?

I wanna give up. I love eating, I don't like walking
Ugh, and the numbers game with my calories and macros is annoying. I'll admit in my previous routine sometimes I ate badly because I am a foodie. However in this new phase of losing weight (again) my eating is very healthy. I have minimal adjustments I have to make with regards to getting rid of unhealthy snacks or candy.…

Add "Medical Conditions" to help tailor nutrients.
Certain conditions require less or more of certain nutrients that might be considered abnormal for most but necessary for some. I.e. POTS and Sodium. Someone with pots might need to consume more salt than what's healthy for others. There are other conditions that impact the diet that MyFitnessPal might flair despite it…

Huge NSV - Post COVID cardio goal met
I know you all will get what a huge success this is. I had COVID in October 2023. I did several months of physical therapy before my doc and PT thought I could start light cardio on my own. When I started, I would get winded just walking from the car to the gym. It's been 6 months, and I've had a huge breakthrough in the…

My husband recently had a triple bypass. They sent him home without diet restrictions, saying "just eat, you need to heal."

No to Ozempic - No to Diabetes - Motivated, ready to fight
Hello! I signed up today and have a rather long story (don’t we all?) “You have diabetes!” my doctor told me last Tuesday and it shocked me. I knew it was coming.
