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.…

Great gains, short time
Hi all, I am excited to share with you my journey in fitness world. In February this year, I started noticing that every step is hard, every breath is tight, even walking was a problem!

Ari, 39, fired up about losing weight
Hi, I knew about myfitnesspal, but I never quite knew how to use it until I started watching this one channel on YouTube called sansacooks. She explained macros so well, and I got so excited about "food data" that it got me excited about counting my calories and looking more closely at what I eat. No food is "good" or "bad…

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. Last year in April I was already prediabetic. And what did I do? Nothing! I continued living in denial land. I had it coming. I am heavily overweight (348 lbs…

Habit Stacking: Starting small to build up to big goals.
This has been my new favorite approach. I've never been a fan of trying to do everything all at once and I know I need to make small changes toward a bigger goal. Every week I choose a new small goal to work on that builds on something week before. Eat breakfast-->track my protein-->aim for 100g daily. If I need to work on…

New to Intro, not MFP
Hi, all! I keep dropping myfitnesspal and always add the app back to my phone. I continue to fall off and jump on the workout wagon. This last time at 47 I really can not find the motivation or energy to stay consistent as my husband (the superhero of all standby-ers and watchers) continues to spend years of progress. I am…

OWN WORST ENEMY
Hey all 36-year-old female. 5'3 1/2 - 160 lbs. so a little background on myself. I was skinny as a rail (even after two kids) until I hit 28/29. The doctor had me try different BC methods and I think it threw my hormones off. When I was 32 I looked at the scale and I was 160 pounds and I had to do something about it. Ate…

Hey there all!
Hi, I have tried this about a decade before and this time I have a strength and nutrition coach from the Evolve gym to help me.

Some thoughts on "Starting Over"
Starting Over Since starting to use MFP – I have noticed a steady stream of people writing “starting over” posts. They tell the age old story of “I tried and failed, now I'm trying again”. There is often an unhealthy dose of self-flagellation – as if beating up on yourself is actually going to help. There is often the plea…

Pregnant and tracking- for health reasons.
I’m pregnant but I’m 40 lbs overweight. I am so overweight I have been informed I should actually not gain weight, but at most 10 lbs. There is no medical need for me to gain weight. I am trying to at least maintain. I started at 187, and was 194 by 10 weeks. My Dr. was concerned. I have been tracking now (my Dr. is aware)…
