Hey, I’m Laz, I’m 23, open to friend requests and fitness support! I started my fitness and health journey a few months ago I think in May (2024). It’s now August and I think I’ve finally found what works for me and found my rhythm in losing weight. I’ve lost ~40lbs already with just learning to eat clean (it’s not super…
How do I trick myself?
I'm aiming to lose about 5-8kg and I like lots of fruits and vegetables, but I realllyyy can't get myself to willingly eat salad or tomatoes. Idk what it is about them, probably the texture for tomatoes, but I just can't. Could someone give me tips to kinda "trick" myself into eating more of it? I know it's one of the best…
Net calories?
Hi everyone. Im new to the app and don't quite understand net calories. I'm on 1200 day. Yesterday my calorie intake was 1177 and my net was 1066. Is that good? I've also had a really low one a week or so ago where I only consumed 957 and my net was 524. I have a read a bit about it and it says if its minus then I'm in…
Starting back up AGAIN 😳
Hey there! I’m just restarting my weight loss journey AGAIN! I’m a 45 year old married mom of 2 living in Texas. I have gained and lost the same 50 lbs multiple times in the past 15 years, often using MFP. Last year, I let the stress of life get me off track again, and I put on 50 lbs.

I found a diet that hits the nail right on the head!
I really never tried weight loss in all my 67 years but when I was told to expect type 2 diabetes in my future I took the plunge. I was 232 lbs, 6-2 male, 67 years old. I decided to go all in over night. I went low carb, 80 or less gms daily and started a IF schedule of 14/10. Also stoped drinking, no junk food at all, all…

I'm a very anxious person and I know I'm prone to…
