Craving/feeling hungry
I just got back into cutting calories and exercising. I had used MyFitnessPal previously and lost some weight (about 40 pounds) but have gained it all back plus some. This time around I am more hungry even after meals or a healthy snack of fruit or raw veggies. Any ideas on how to curb that and resist the urge to snack.

Hi, since I started taking anti depressants, I gained about 6 kg and I need some tips on battling stress eating. Most days I stay bussy due to anxiety and possible panic attacks, but my depression makes it extra hard to work all day long.

Update 3/18/23
Started out 2023 with weight up very high, highest I've been in years. Last fall my mother was in and out of the hospital 3 times from Sept to Dec 24. I'm a stress eater and combining that with the holidays lead to so much junk food being eaten at work and at home. It got to the point where I was always hungry. Started…

Week one down and no lose 😭
Feeling frustrated already in getting back on this plan. I kept my calories close or under the suggested daily intake and I didn't lose a pound. I figured I'd at least lost a little, even a quarter pound would have made me feel a little better about. In the past I would have lost a little, the only thing that's changed is…

Disabilities and weight loss
I am new. I have a rare disease that is quite painful. Some days it hurts too much to eat and other days I eat way too much (usually when I feel sorry for myself because I am sick). I recently had a 8 week flareup during which I lost 14 pounds. I was happy to see the loss, but now I am worried that it may have screwed up…

Why am I projected to lose less weight even if I am under my calorie goals?
Even thought I started out today with under my calorie intake, it is saying I will have only lost 6 lbs in 5 weeks, even thought I have a goal of 2 lbs a week. I am at 158 and am trying to get to 145. I was under 1200 today and it is still saying "if every day was like today you would be 152 in 5 weeks". WHY? :(

Weight loss and knee replacement
Over the course of a decade, I lost 40 lbs from my all time high. I knew the extra weight was hard on my knees but didn’t realize the extent. I had my right knee replaced after losing the 40 lbs, then a month ago (after losing another 10 lbs) I had my left knee replaced. What a difference that 10 lbs makes in my recovery!…

Updates will not save
Hi everyone, we are new to my fitness pal and are having a little bit of a struggle. We are trying to edit our settings to reflect 10% carbs, 70% fat, and 20% protein. We save the changes but it automatically resets us back to 50% carb etc. Does anyone have any insight as to how we can make these changes reflect what we…
