A picture is worth a thousand words. From 288 to 178! How did I do this? By myself? My own knowledge? NO WAY!! I had gone from 288 to 256 that way, but was already not progressing in 2010! I did an online search and found a site now closed. When that site (Sparkpeople) closed we went looking for another weight loss group…

Why do I keep gaining weight?!
I walk/run 8-10 miles a day. I have a very active job, so I rarely sit down during the day. My net calories are 1,200 – 1,500 a day. But I am consistently gaining 2+ pounds a week!! Why is this happening? It’s so frustrating! What am I doing wrong? I would really appreciate help.

Reached my first goal!!! 100lbs gone!
Yesterday at weigh in I achieved my first major goal of dropping 100lbs! It took 315 days starting at 2200 calories to 1530 calories today.

Can you review your past workouts?
Is there anyway to look back and review previous workouts and what you did on said day once it’s logged or is it logged and left there with only the time and calories to review? Desktop site looks like it could store that information but im lost...

I blew it this past few weeks
I was tempted with everything! Bread, sweets, overeating. Everything! I kept checking myself in the mirror and still look fine but stayed feeling bloated, depressed and alone. I have avoided logging my food and getting in the scale. So today I step back into my program. I hate that I reverted back but I am ready to jump…

Hello!
I’m Kathy, 53, from Pennsylvania. I lost 30 lbs last year but immediately began gaining it back. This is the second time this has happened when I got close to my goal weight. I’m pre-diabetic, so carbs and sugar are the enemies. I’m looking for groups for diabetes prevention and/or ending yo-yo dieting. Best wishes to all!!

Habit is strong than will
I really, really liked this article. Very inspiring! I said YES!!! to the decision to get healthier - often. And that is the problem - the truth (according to behavioural scientists, and books like Good Habits, Bad Habits etc) is that habit is stronger than willpower in the long run. Its tiny habits, that build life long…

Does it matter if you start the week with upper or lower?
I do a 4 day upper/lower split. I normally start the week with heavy legs then arms next day. I read somewhere you should do heavier days towards end of week to recover? My arms tend to get tired on lower days (short girl probs) so wondering if I should flip it, and start the week with bench press/upper day then "heavier"…

Should I bulk, cut, or recomp?
Looking for advice on whether I should bulk, cut, or recomp at this point! I’ve been attempting a slight caloric deficit over the past year (slow cut) because I wanted to lose 10-15 lbs.

Is this maintenance? Can I celebrate yet?
I just looked at what turns out to be about ten years of data. It made me feel a little bit better. Like most of us, I sometimes get a little frustrated when only looking at recent data. In my case, I had lost about 30 pounds to what I thought was an ideal weight. I maintained in a healthy range around that weight for…
