My journey started 348 days ago
Started on February 15, 2024. I was 546lbs. (I was actually probably more than that but I had no access to a scale that could weigh me and that was the last weight I knew I was). As of January 24, 2025 I was down 199lbs. I am now 347lbs. I might be insane but I was so annoyed that I was not down 200lbs, a nice round…

Will eating late at night make me gain weight?
I have a busy day and don’t really have time to eat I mainly have some caffeine and a small snack. I make up for my calories, proteins, etc at dinner time. Which is nice but then at night I get hungry again, I suppose maybe because my body’s energy was so depleted it needed more. Sometimes I get so hungry it feels like it…

Can someone please help me figure out a good calorie deficit?
I’m a 32yr old female, 5’9, 215lbs. I’m exclusively breastfeeding my 7mo old. She just recently started on solids so, I’m nursing around 4-6 times day and at least 2 times at night. Stressed and a little confused on how much to add/subtract calories for breastfeeding. Thank you in advanced!

i am back
I am using the website version of myfitnesspal this morning and I find it to be more focused for the community section. Been a member since 2013 and occasional user I guess. I am pretty self aware of my diet, and used to track my meals, but it is quite cumbersome to track every single diet. #Iamback

Starting Over Again.
I've been on this site off and on for several years. However, recently I retired and have gained 25 lbs. I do have a Low Thyroid which does make it hard for me to lose weight, so I'm back to MFP to have some accountability and hopefully will lose those 25 lbs. Thanks for listening and I hope someone out there can help me.

Pasta- how much I should be eating
