Accountability
Hello every one I just logged back in after some time and I'm about to start back at it. Looking for people who will hold each other accountable. Send friend invite it you like. Thanks and God bless.
What's the deal with always carrying a water bottle?
TL:DR I think that the companies that sell high-end insulated water bottles are making bank and have convinced us that we can't go more than 500 meters unless we carry water. What gives? Preface: I think drinking enough water is very important. I am also a firm believer in bringing your own reusable bottle of water if…
Starting the new year right
Hello all! I know this is cliché to say, but I am, I have joined a Stepbet that begins the 1st of the year and lasts until Feb 11th. I have struggled with keeping track of eating and exercise, I always just forget and do other things I need to get done. I am going to set up in my google calendar time aside just to get a…
Pre and post workout
I worked out yesterday and weighed myself pre and post workout. The scale said I lost 3 lbs after my workout. Now when I weighed myself pre, I was fasted. Post weigh in was after workout and drinking water. How can you lose that much in one workout. Water weight? All I did was walk for 30 and stretch for over 10 minutes.
Training Question
I need to lose over 100 lbs. Is it true that the best method is a combination of weight training (light weights, high reps) and cardio each time? (Cardio is fast walk on treadmill to cool down.)
Walking and steps
Quick question. If you go on a 40 walk do you track that or do you not because it’s already tracking your steps? TIA
Weight Lifting and Cardio Effectiveness
Hello all. So I was doing just cardio (walking on an incline treadmill for 30 minutes a day). Then I threw in lifting for 20-30 minutes then a cool down with 10 minutes of the walking and I found that, both together, they have dropped my weight quicker. Anyone else find this? Is it better to lift or do cardio for a lot of…
Weight Loss and Exercise
I have been walking on the treadmill 4 miles every day, M-F, for the past 4 weeks. I have reduced my calorie intake to 1600 daily. I weigh myself every Sunday. I am becoming discouraged because I have yet to lose any weight. In fact, I have gained 4 pounds. I really feel that I am doing everything right so I just cannot…
Walks on the beach 😊
Sooo I love walking on the beach at night. I did that today and I feel great. It’s not too hot out like the day time. I hate sweating too much gives me headaches lol so night time is perfect cuz where I live it gets chilly at night. I love this app. Day 3 and I lost 4.5 pounds! I can’t believe how much I was overeating.

Looking for Friends -- Add Me
Back here again for the umpteenth time. I made a decision to change my life this year after getting back from the Holidays and weighing in at 310lbs on Jan 2nd, the heaviest I have ever been. I started the first few weeks of the year just eating a little healthier and at a calorie deficit. But then decided to try…
Keto Lifestyle
Please forgive me for the very long post, but I'm trying to make a point. I am trying Keto once again, and I have to say I am more successful this time around. I started at 165 lbs, and am down to 138 lbs. The first time I quit because I was always hungry. I didn't understand the whole net carb thing. I also started to…
Newbie but not!💕
Hello! I've been using MFP for 10 years, but never posted onto the community until now. The app has aided me in my health and fitness journey. I've been at a healthy weight most of my life. I've dealt with self image issues driven by low self esteem and growing up in home where mental health wasn't addressed, and poverty…

Hello from a new/old member!
Hi there! My name is Beth and I recently and very suddenly lost my job. A job I thought I would have for a very long time. A job I loved. This sudden change has caused me to reevaluate my life. I’m almost 50 years old, and it’s time to take control and take care of me. My entire life (until I had kids) I was very thin. I…
Audiobooks For Motivation
Hi! I could tell you my long journey/story, but it mirrors so many others. I'm planning to begin increasing my walking and I'm hoping audiobooks will cure a lot of issues I have staying motivated. Does anyone have any suggestions? I loved the movie Brittany Runs A Marathon so that's sort of my vibe. I used to be an avid…

Lifting weights 4 times a week and playing Tennis 1-2 times a week. 50 lbs goal.
First time using the community side of this app. The goal last year was to lose 80 lbs. I lost 35 lbs. This year the goal is to lose 50 lbs. I have tried so many diets in the past and what I've found to really work for me is OMAD or 2MAD. I lost that 35 lbs in 3 months, from January to March 2022 and I just maintained the…
