First time using My Fitness Pal
Hey everyone! I’m new to My fitness pal. I have been using the Lose it! app and been pretty successful in tracking my calories to lose weight. I dropped from 231lbs in August 2023 to 210lbs today. I want to try this app as well! So far I’m liking it! My goal weight is 180lbs. Only 30 more pounds to go! Nice to meet you all!

National Quitters Day
About five years ago, Strava did some research. I think it's OK to mention Strava here because there's a way to link data from Strava to our MFP exercise diary. They looked over all their user data and determined that the second Friday in January is when people start to give up on their New Year's resolutions - 80% of…

New Year's Resolutions
As we prepare to welcome the New Year, many of us will make resolutions. Many people on MFP will make resolutions about fitness and diet. Sometimes those resolutions will be lofty; we are setting ourselves up for failure. As like any other time of year, we need our goals to be difficult but achievable. We need them to be…

First Pound Lost!
I wanted to share the news that I lost my first pound. Obviously, this is not an impressive accomplishment by any means (especially in comparison to some of your success stories), but it’s meaningful to me because it is an objective acknowledgment that I am making progress. My next mini-goal is to lose 5 lbs: hopefully…

I've been at this for years, and still need support do you also?
I started in 2010 to lose weight upon being told I was a diabetic and would be put on insulin if I didn't at once start to lose weight. I weighed 288 quickly getting down to 256 by just counting calories. BUT I became STUCK!! I went online and found a site which closed in 2020, we relocated to MFP!! I'm now down to…

345 DAYS....101.6 POUNDS GONE.....A WHOLE NEW PERSON
345 days ago, I was sitting in a lazy boy after cutting firewood all day exhausted and sore to the point that I didn't know if I was ever going to get up outta that chair. In that moment I realized that I wasn't going to be able to be active enough to keep up with my then 6- and 2-year-old boys. And I didn't want to be the…

💖I wasn't motivated after going from 288 LBS down to 256. Now I am at 171 what changed?
My journey started many years ago, it's still "on going" though I am no longer losing. I started at 288 lbs, lost pretty quick to 256!! I was so excited to be losing, until I didn't. I knew I was in deep doo doo if I didn't lose. Diabetes isn't anyone friend, neither was the depression I was in at that time. I went online…

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…

A quick summary to help make sense of where I’m coming from. When I was in my 20s-30s i basically lived at my gym (hence the username)…I was strong…I was cut (lifted 5/days…
