(M18, 123LBS/55KG, 5'8) Need Help Building Muscle
Last year I went from 162 lbs to 123 lbs. I lost the weight through a calorie deficit and walking about 5000 - 8000 steps daily. For a while, I wasn't comfortable around 123 Ibs. I didn't like how I still had loose skin and loose nipples, so I tried dropping as low as 113 lbs thinking it would give me some definition and…

Hey y'all, I'm not new to the app, I've been here a few times but I'm hoping this time will be the one that counts. A little back story...I joined in 2017, lost a little, gained a little, got frustrated and quit. Joined again in 2018, lost some, my dad passed away, I couldn't focus so I quit again. I think I joined again…

100 Lbs down
I’m here to share that you can do this. Is it a quick fix? No. Is it easy? No. Does it require dedication to you? Yes. Does it mean some mental gymnastics? Yes. But, you got this. I promise you, sometimes we focus too much on our appearance, the scale, the snack we snuck, etc… just take you a moment, take a breath, and…

Weight gain status
Since there aren't many of us with this particular goal, I thought I'd create a thread where we gainers could share our status, issues, concerns, or questions. I think we could all learn much from each other and get some support as needed. I'll start. I'm recovering from an illness and dealing with golfers elbow, so it's…

Last chance
I'm fast approaching 70 and this will be my last chance to get some kind of fitness. Way back I was introduced to MFP following an "episode" where I briefly exited this world. Managing to lose 10% of my body mass in a single month, my weight levelled off to where my body thought it should be and stayed there for some time.…

Sudden Weight Gain After Finally Finding the Right Meds to Manage Mental Health… Now what?
i was skinny my whole life and was quite underweight earlier this year. I was working on weight restoration and really was struggling but made a bit of progress. After quitting a stressful job and finding a psychiatrist that put me on the right kind of meds, I put on weight. More than 30% of my starting weight. I’m sad…
