Finally getting back to it
Generally, been struggling to stay consistent with my weight loss goals for the past year or so, sitting at a clean 205lb trying to drop to 175lb. Managed to stay below yesterday (a lot of it was realizing how high-calorie some of my snacks that didn't have nutrition labels were) and I'm really trying to go for it today.…
Oldie but a Goodie
I have been using this app on & off for a few years now. So far I have lost 63 lbs w/110 to be at my goal weight. I have just switched jobs from one horrible place to what looks like another. I have been stress eating this past week. Well I have decided two things this weekend. 1) It is a job. I can either stick it out or…
hi my name is doris, I’m 26 and looking forward to seeing his weight loss journey
MyFitnessPal refuses to provide daily totals to women <1200 kcal and men <1500 kcal. That’s my data?
The app doesn’t provide totals under these limits. I have read their posts and reasoning behind it, but as a user, I think the app is crossing the line of authoritarianism and judgement. This app is a tool, and I appreciate the apps resources and guidance. However, there is not a on-size-fits all diet plan for every…

Howdy from Montana
Greetings all from Big Sky Country. After a tough year battling the effects of long COVID, my primary care doctor suggested I try out My Fitness Pal.

Over 100lbs lost after 10+ years of trying...I've learned a huge lesson (TW)
I have been on Keto for 252 days. My goal is 140lbs and i started at 310lbs. I am now 201 lbs. 61lbs to go! Before I started this journey I was under the impression that I would never lose the weight. How I have proved myself, and others, wrong. I thought I would share the greatest lesson i have learned so far. This post…
Suggested calorie intake with Apple Watch tracking
I am trying to work out the best way to track what my calorie intake should be. I have a very physical job, window cleaning, which involves carrying ladders, climbing up and down ladders to clean windows. If I track this as “other” on Apple Watch, It averages about 2000 calorie burn per day. I also do cardio and strength…

Any breakfast recommendations?
Hello does anyone have any breakfast ideas from 360 calories or under? I would usually have 2 power waffles and strawberry juice(I make it), and I thought that I should vary in my choices :))
Hello!
I'm oscar, and I've been kinda insecure about myself since like forever, so i'm finally doing something about it! I'm trying to get more toned (I have like a normal amount of muscle from random motivational periods of working out) so that I'm proud of myself when I look in the mirror ever morning. I don't want to get super…

When do I go into maintenance mode?
I am trying to figure out what weight I should set my goals for and maintain and I am not sure which is healthy according to my body size. Is there a way I could calculate which weight is good for me?
Calorie targets
So apparently aiming for less than 1000 calories a day is unhealthy but you need to aim for a calorie deficit of 500 less than your maintenance calorie target… My body scales suggest a maintenance goal of 1334 calories (I’m 5’ 2”) so minus 500 would be around 800 calories a day? Any thoughts from shorter ladies?
