What's Your Most Recent NSV
My most recent NSV is taking a selfie with my daughter and seeing dimples again! I have hated how I've looked for so long and I actually don't hate this picture and my dimples are back. Can't remember the last time I saw those, I know it was when a Bush was in office! Even the fact that I was willing to take a selfie is an…

What's your NSV this week?
My body has been big for as long as I can remember. I am scared to have less of this body that has done well by me over the years. I have never known myself as an adult to be under 300lbs. As I approach it I find myself trying to focus less on the scale, and more on other benefits to the changes happening. Yesterday (on my…

NSV and more!
I went to Jamaica with friends last month and wore two-piece bathing suits!!!! I would have never had the self-confidence to do that before losing 57 lbs. I bought a small trampoline (rebounder) for my office and am watching youtube videos and working out for 30 minutes a day and it's really helping me break through my…

NSV: Down 2 Dress Sizes!
Hey guys! So, I have some NSV today! I went window shopping to see if I can fit into any new clothes, so that I won't have to waste money on clothes that won't fit me, and I learned something new. :smile: 1. I used to wear a size 4x dress and could fit into a size 3x, but now I discovered that 3X's are too big on me, and…

Oooo snacks…how you can be so sooo tempting…
Happy Thursday Fitness Fanatics! Sooo I’m considering this one of those non scale wins! I was getting my Costco on yesterday evening and OH BABY were they coming hard with the delicious taste samples…s’mores treats, cheeses, pastas, dips, and chips!!! The temptation was real…but I resisted, even said “no thank you” to the…

My Brand New Wardrobe
Years ago when I was on a calorie restricted diet, I lost some weight and as an incentive to help me continue to lose, I bought a large number of clothes in a smaller size. (They were on clearance with an additional 20% off.) I didn't go on to lose any more weight and regained what I'd lost plus some more pounds. I've lost…

I need to stop the regain!
Hi All! I'm down 225-ish pounds and am finding myself sliding a little. I was thinking some new friends might help me stay on track. Let's motivate each other!

What is an NSV/What does that mean?
What is an NSV/What does that mean? Some have been asking, and I haven't yet seen an answer, so: NSV = Non-Scale Victory In other words, where have you seen/heard a comment, noticed a change in your MFP journey, or something similar that was an encouragement to you, but that was NOT related to a 'weight loss' that could be…

262 lb to 180.2 lb
I started at 262 pounds for my heaviest weigh in. I knew I needed to make a change for the better! I ended up using a TDEE Calculator website and found my caloric intake for weight loss and stuck to that! I am still sticking to it as I have some fat on the lower belt that I want to lose! I never really cared about macros…

CONSISTENCY MATTERS
Hi I'm Rebekah and I am a food addict. I decided to use this app because I saw someone on FB mention its ease of input of food and I was like that is what I need. I have been faithful in logging my meals for 12 days. This is big for me because I struggle with being consistent. I need to have a surgery and did not want to…

Hello I'm Stacey
Hi! I've used MFP before, but it's taken me a while to build effective habits and I'm still learning to build the systems I need to be fit and healthy. I've lost almost 20kg this year (2022), which feels awesome! But I'm still obese. It's been so eye opening to learn how much I don't know about eating well and exercising…

Glad to Be Here!
Hi everyone! After my annual physical on Monday, I received a bad lab report for the first time in my life (202 cholesterol, 124 LDL, 129/88 bp). I'm 40, 5'7 and weigh 185 pounds. My goal is to lose 20 pounds (my fighting weight is 165!) and to get back to perfect lab work. Any Peloton users in here?! B)

I'm back to smash my goals!
I was on MFP a few years ago and had huge results. Went through some things and went backwards. But I am BACK and making things happen now! Finally! I've been threatening to do this for a long time. My name is Lloyd, and I've been a professional photographer and videographer for years. I have a beautiful little 1 1/2 year…
