Forgiving myself with stumbles?
Anyone else had a bad day with food choices or watching the scale go the wrong direction, or both? How did you keep it from frustrating and discouraging you?
Why did you come to the conclusion to lose weight?
My cholesterol and triglycerides have been steadily going up and are now in the "RED" zone and I have to fix that. I am assuming it is alcohol more than food, but regardless, I need to get back on track. Am working on a 1200 calorie program - which doesn't leave much room for wine! However, I will persevere!
Getting back to Health in Middle Age!
Hi everyone, I'm back after many years. I'm in my early 50s, had a hip replacement a year ago due to arthritis, and am getting back into fitness after years of not much physical activity. There was a time I played tennis 4 to 5 days a week, but that stopped due to my hip. I recently ventured out and took a tennis lesson,…

Keto Newbies! (Cravings are fat cells BEGGING)
Hey!! :) I am very new to Keto and all I can think about are fries and gummy bears. So I’m resolved that this is the fat cells way of begging for mercy. The image in my head is making me laugh. So how did you hold out long enough to see real change?

Introduction
Hello MFP community! I've actually had the app for a few years. However, it wasn't until we went into lockdown and the encouragement of my daughter that I've actually starting using the app as I should. I'm exploring a little more into the app so here I am. I would like to add more friends as we take this journey together.…
Hi new friends :)
I have had this app for a while now, and I am finally fully commiting myself. About 5 years ago I had lost 100lbs and since then I have gained it all back. There are lots of excuses I could use, but I still have the weight back on my body and its my fault. I am ready to lose it this time and NOT find it again. Buh-bye! I…

Don’t understand difference in mirror vs scale
About a month ago I started exercising daily (tracked through Fitbit) and tracking my calories and macros through MFP. I walk on the treadmill daily at an incline and the only day I didn’t do the treadmill I was on a bike ride. I also bought an Eros scale to track my body fat and other stats. I’ve ensured I’m drinking at…
