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…

Fat college kid fixing his life.
I’m a 20 year old college kid. I’m fat, lonely, sad, and I’m miserable. I want to change, not only for me but for everyone around me. I plan on going into the field of law enforcement, and I don’t feel that people can depend on me if I can’t even depend on myself. I WILL change. I WILL be the best version of myself I can…

Trying it out
I’ve been a member of MFP for years but found another app that I actually liked using and have been with it for a few years. But, I’m back again to give MFP another try. Right now, my plan is to meet my protein goals. I’ve slacked this summer with nutrition and it’s time to change that. Life has also gotten in the way of…

Killin' it at 49 (and w/this app!)
I sat in defeat + depression in June of 2022. Didn't believe I could take control. Didn't believe I could erase two years of Covid induced, sedentary lifestyle + the 30lbs added to my frame. I changed soooo many little things to pull me out of that nosedive. I was teetering around 195lbs. Now I'm teetering around 165lbs.…

Still at it!
I took a break from MFP, but continued a healthy lifestyle, like all of us hit a bump in the road and need something to zero my focus on nutrition and fitness. A more intentional self-care approach.

Met another milestone today 70lbs gone!
I've got a long way to go still but I reached 70lbs down today. I've basically just changed my diet and been mindful of what I eat.
