Weight Loss

Hello again.
Just wanted to say hello everyone. It's been a while. From 2017-2018 I had lost 76 lbs using MyFitnessPal. I was so happy… Unfortunately, without getting into the specifics as to why, I fell off track, put the weight back on...and then some. So I'm posting here today to keep myself accountable and tell myself I can do this…

My name is Emma & I’ve gained about 40 pounds over the past year hitting 180. after medical complications due to kidney stones as well as medication. i know my journey towards weight loss is just beginning and it feels discouraging some days when losing just 2 pounds doesn’t feel like an accomplishment.

I just want to break my unhealthy relationship with food.
Anyone else struggling to let go of their unhealthy relationship with food? After my divorce I “unhealthily” lost about 25 pounds and while I felt “good” because I was skinnier, but mentally not due to the stress of divorce. Rewind to 3-4 years now I now am healed from that and a lot happier l, but gained some bad eating…
Daily checking in.
I recently saw a post on daily accountability and this resonated with me. I think this is what I need but where and how!? Could MFP be the answer? I have unsuccessfully tried Noom, WW and for the last 4 months a personal coach to lose the weight. Instead I have steadily increased my weight by 2 kg!! I am a mother/…

A recommendation for bingo wings
I’ve lost a lot. Gained some back. But am losing again. Many of us who have lost a lot of weight have sagging skin. I’m open to suggestions for exercise to reduce the upper arm sag. But in the meantime I want to share something I have found that helps minimize the saggy look, and protects from sunburn too. Do a search on…

Being disciplined is so hard
I do good with my diet for maybe a day or two and then suddenly I just can't hold back and have a bunch of small snacks that quickly add up and suddenly I'm 200+ over my calorie goal, any tips would be appreciated 🤧

Eating Toooooooo Much
I’m doing the 16/8 intermittent fasting diet, I find the 16 hours fasting quite easy but I’m eating way too much in the 8 hour window.

I've put all the weight I lost back on 😭 But not to worry because I'm starting fresh. I've already…
