Weighing food
I am having a hard time understanding about weighing my food and how much I am I taking. When it says 1oz or 1g of fruit and when I measure it it doesn’t even say that it will say 20 on my scale and under 4oz on my measuring cup
Hi from New England!
Nice to be here! AGAIN lol! Here's my short version: I've been on a rollercoaster of a journey the past nine years. I lost a parent, spiraled into depression, emotional binge eating, then Covid hit and worked from home...Not moving...I feel like I woke up after a bad dream in a body I didn't recognize. I ballooned from 185…
Hello
Hi all, I’m new and am looking for an accountability partner. Is that a thing here? Jake
Returning member starting a second weight loss journey!
Hey y'all!!!! Not my first rodeo here lol!!! I had a successful weight loss journey losing about 50 lbs but gained most of it back due to poor mental health and diet. I stopped taking care of myself and gave up. Now after gaining almost all of it back, I had a wake up call that this isn't the path I want to go down. I…

I can finally start seeing the changes (54lbs down.... 116 to go)
I have been bigger than average my whole life. When I stepped on the scales 5 months ago after seeing the pictures of myself from a cousin's wedding... I knew I needed a change. Since then, I have been trying out the Keto diet, I planned my macros, found a company that I can get meal prep from, and here we are, four months…
Less sugar?
Went to my doctor and he said my glutos is way up there and i need to bring it down. Any suggestions about beverages i can drink (besides water) and best ways to bring this down?
App Bug with Exercise
So I am getting rather frustrated with the app, I have gone through support and they just kept suggesting things like restarting the app, my phone, update etc when I have done all that and won't actually support me with the issue. Has any else experienced the issue of the Exercise constantly changing? Makes it hard to…

How much protein per day to lose weight?
I'm 5'4 and 135 pounds rn. I want to go down to 120. I've started hitting the gym recently and I learned that consuming lots of protein help, but I can't figure out what my goal should be. Each source tells me a different thing. How do y'all calculate your protein goal?
When will the cravings stop?
Hi everyone 👋🏼 I’m new here and just beginning my journey to lose 75 lbs. I’m having a hard time getting used to the smaller portion sizes and the cravings for foods I used to eat. Also, I. Am. Hungry. When will these things go away? TIA! 😊

Having realistic expectations
Not sure who if anyone needs to here this but..IMO. Have realistic expectations and do not let big successes fool you into thinking the realistic expectations are to conservative. You should expect to lose 1 to 2 lbs a week. When i started this again on July 4th I had great success and then I went on a nearly month long…
Importance of Protein and my goal?
So, I have my goals set on my app telling me I have a protein of 84 kg. But I always hear more protein is better for both muscle growth and weight loss. So, should I be aiming to keep this at that rough number it's giving me or does it matter if I go over?
What's my Activity Level?
So going off descriptions, I am Not Very active as I sit at a desk most days. But I don't see a place to input how much exercise I am doing throughout the day as I am going out for walks at minimum twice a day for 10-15 minutes. But I can also be more active either in quantity of walks or duration

Tortoise and the Hare
I've always been a little overweight all my life, borderline between obese and overweight at times, but never in the normal category. It's never bothered me too much because I was extremely active in dance, but such is the way of dance classes, I was pretty much always the biggest girl there. I had lots of attempts in my…

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…
Returning MFP user
Hello everyone, Lawrence here. I joined MyFitnessPal back in 2012 when I weighed 95 kg (202 lbs).

However, over the years, I reverted to my old habits…

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.
