Setting goal calories on MFP
I'm trying to reset my goal calories on the MyFitnessPal app, now that I'm very close to goal and would like to know my maintenance calories. For information, I'm 51/F 5'2'' and now 128.8 lbs, down from around 216 lbs at this time last year. My goal weight is 125 lbs, which would make my TDEE around 1360-1375 depending on…

Nervous About Increased Calorie Budget
Since October 2021, I've lost nearly 25 pounds. Two of those pounds were lost in the last week. I read here a lot and I suspect I'm not eating enough even though I don't ever feel starved. I only have 15ish pounds to go, so this morning, I upped my calories by 100 because I'd rather be losing between 1/2 and 3/4 of a pound…

Hi, I am female, 38yo, 5 foot 5 (65 inches or 165cm), 123 pounds (55.7kg or 8.7 stone).

Weight Loss
My weight loss journey began when I weighed 221 pounds. I’m a 5’11 man and I was eating Fast food and take out daily. Not only was this making a dent in my bank account but my personal health deteriorated as well. I wanted to make a change in my lifestyle and wanted to go slow. I did not increase my workout intensity but I…

Calorie Deficit - Not Eating Enough? - Advice - Help?
Hey all, I've been on MFP for a a few years now on and off. At my thinnest (years ago in high school) I was 150-ish.

I'm currently 25 years old, 6' 0" (female) and weigh in at 193…

How do I view my history of routines?
It may sound like a stupid question, but I cannot find the history of the execution of the routines I made, for example, If I created a routine named "push day one #" and entered: bench 120kg 12 reps * 3 press 70kg 8 reps * 3 and so on... and the next day week, I log the same routine but with different numbers by using the…

Why am I still hungry?
Why am I so hungry after I run? Am I burning more than the approximate amount the app says? I eat 1600 or sometimes 1400 cals a day but I always reach my protein intake (plant based shakes) I’m never that hungry after I do weights and I lift fairly heavy. Example: during the day I eat 800 calories of my 1600. after I run I…

InMotion Compact Strider Exercise?
Hi! I use the InMotion Compact Strider as my main at-home workout equipment and was curious what to log it as in the app?

What keeps you up at night?
Since I’m up late, I figured I’d see how many others have trouble resting and why? For me it’s the inability to turn my mind off. I’ve made major changes in all areas of my life, nutrition, physical fitness and mental health care. Yet I still find my mind always going.. Constantly thinking about things I can’t change or…

How is it possible that I gained 8 pounds but lost over an inch on thighs/waist over the past few..
Months?? I weighed myself curiously after 3 months on two scales and I was surprised to see I gained 8 pounds?? I guess the scales hate me now lol. I’m a runner that does no lifting at all. Normally I use to run 2-3 times a week, now it’s about 4-5 times a week but I still don’t even understand how that would impact my…
