Keeping my Macros on track has done wonder for me! 2 kilos, 2 weeks, eating a lot!
Kindly note that this will be a long(er) reading, as I am sharing with you some details on my journey so far. Thank you 🙂 Hi All! My name is Melda, from Indonesia. This is my 2nd time back in MyFitnessPal, as I recently gained 5 kilos / 11 pounds in just a few short months (not proud, but life happened). I had been…

10kg down... So much more to go
Anyone else reach that first milestone only to realise there's so much more to go? Like this week I weighed in at under 100kg after around 2.5 months, meaning I've lost over 10kg. I'm definitely proud of myself. I never want to be over 100kg again if I can help it. It's just when I realise that I've got another 25-30 to…

Why is nothing working?
Hello everyone! I have been trying for the last couple months to regain my confidence and lose 30 pounds. I am at 146.2 and I dream of getting to 116. I have started using MyFitnessPal to count calories, eating 4 meals a day and cutting out sugary drinks/sweets. It has taken me so long to lose 3 pounds even when I exercise…

How motivation works
This popped up on my newsfeed on another platform, and I found it simply too true to not share. Motivation gives a spark, but the true fuel/fire of weight-loss and better health is discipline and consistency. (As well as flexibility in adjusting your strategy depending on your needs, circumstances...)

Look for engaged MFP friends
Hi all! I'm giving MFP another go. Back in 2010 I lost about 30 lbs, everyone that I was friends with on the app were super engaged and encouraging on each other's feeds. I tried again several years later, and didn't have the same experience. I am looking for some friends on here that are looking for a similar level…

Is Video Documenting Weight Loss Actually a Motivator?
I have mixed feelings on this... I've followed some people who do this that just stop making progress losing weight and then make videos about food. I've seen some who go all the way. I'm absolutely not looking to be instafamous (I work a real job and I'm earning my BA). I was just curious what the consensus is on this?…

Breaking the binge / delete / create new account cycle
Sometimes I feel like an addict! As soon as I stray from my perception of a healthy day (even just a little), I go full throttle vacuum mouth mode. I've read a bit about binge-eating, and I understand that it isn't about the food as much as it's about the binge... but I can't seem to break the cycle. It's almost like, as…

The Perfect Week
I keep finding myself going through periods (of days) where I am doing all the right things, then periods (sometimes weeks) of doing all the wrong things. With this in mind, I have decided to do what I am going to call a "Perfect Week Challenge". I am going to have it in writing exactly what I am going to eat, scheduled…
