New here
Hi, I found myself feeling stuck after retiring which seems crazy. I was active and feeling full of purpose. It’s been a year now, and gained all the weight I lost 10 years ago after being cancer free. I am married 37 years and have a beautiful family including 2 grandchildren. I want to feel good, look good and be healthy…

Last chance
I'm fast approaching 70 and this will be my last chance to get some kind of fitness. Way back I was introduced to MFP following an "episode" where I briefly exited this world. Managing to lose 10% of my body mass in a single month, my weight levelled off to where my body thought it should be and stayed there for some time.…

Feel free to stop by for a boost of motivation, share your own images/quotes, or save some of your favorites for those hard days. Here are a few of my favorites: "A year from now, you will wish you had started today" "Think of…

Coffee lovers who calorie count
Is there a coffee that you enjoy drinking black? I have tried a couple but nothing seems to stick for me. I usually put Coffee Mate hazelnut creamer but the calories add up. I just tried Starbucks Espresso and Cream Light (in a can) 6.5fl oz it is 70 calories. It tasted great and kept me energized. Another plus is being…

Wake-up Call
Hi everyone I’m new here. Height: 4”11 SW: 309 I’ve been trying to loose weight for years but all I seem to successfully accomplish is pick it up. This month I had a huge health scare. I got a kidney stone (which I didn’t feel) and only saw a doctor after a week. The blockage caused a kidney infection which resulted in…

In search of wellness and weightloss buddies
Hi I'm Rebecca and I've not been on here for such a long time! So basically newbie I guess. I don't really have a weight loss target, more a body image and lifestyle changes and would love to be part of a squad who encourage, motivate and challenge positively. I've lost some weight already and figure it would be nice to…

8 Months, 8 Stone Down - My Journey (So Far)
Eight months ago, I was 25 stone (159 kg) with a body fat percentage of 34%. This morning, I weighed in at 98 kg with 23% body fat. I’m still considered “obese” by BMI standards, but I feel stronger, healthier, and more in control than I have in years. I wanted to share my journey - not because I have all the answers, but…

17 Day Diet
I've been using MyFitnessPal on and off since 2012. Last Thursday, I started the 17 Day diet and am hoping to connect with others who are following it as well. It would be great to support each other and share new recipes-especially since one of the biggest challenges for me is keeping meals interesting and avoiding food…

Bring Back Plans!
Removing the Plans feature and replacing it with a meal planner that requires a more expensive premium plan has ruined this app for me. I am a premium member, but I really loved the Plans, and I have no interest in buying a more expensive membership to use the meal planner. You took away a great feature from everyone and…

Trying to stay mobile to 100 and beyond!
My body started to remind me that routine maintenance was required. I downloaded this app as a tool to stay motivated. Not a fan of medications and/or surgeries to fix problems that I can fix myself with diet and targeted exercise.

A small post about big results (300 lbs -> 220 lbs)
I am not sure I have much to teach anyone but hopefully some will find this post inspirational. I have been large most of my life and have hit 300 lbs twice. Once in high school and again some time after graduating college. In June 2022, just before my 29th birthday, I did a lot of research into the best ways to lose…

Newbie but an Oldie
I'm entering my golden years and want to get healthy. I've lost 50 lbs. using a weight loss medication, but now I want to do it on my own… with the support of others. I have physical limitations, but hopefully, with the weight loss, I'll become more active.
