I'm so excited.
I'm so excited. Three years ago when I decided I was done being fat. And I committed myself to losing weight. I never thought this day would come. Today when I woke up and weighed in. For the first time in my adult life. I have entered the one club. 199.8lbs! Back when I was in my 300's I thought surely I'd look like a…

"Anything is better than being obese"?
I've seen this idea kind of floating out there. Sometime it is said outright, some times you see it in peoples choices to cut really deep in deficits....A discussion about weight lose meds made me ponder this one. I think mostly it is true. Getting thinner makes you healthier across the board and increases lifespan. Where…

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.

Certain parts of my body shake/tremble at certain positions. Why?
For some background, I'm a 23 year old female. Since I was about 9 I used the internet as an escape from the stresses I was facing in person/life. Without getting into detail, this went on until about November 2023, on which I stopped feeling the need to be online much and started feeling much better mentally, emotionally…

Hey, there.
I'm new to MyFitnessPal. I'm attempting to get back into better shape and health, and I chose this venue as a way to try. I've had some issues with disordered eating in the past, so my focus is not specifically on weight, but how my clothes fit and how I feel (energetic, etc.). Thank you for reading.

How do you get your head (self image, self-talk, confidence) to catch up with your weight loss?
I am 4 pounds from my goal weight and find myself second guessing my success. Lately my habits have helped weight loss seem “too easy” and I expect to wake up any day and find that I’ve regained the 35 pounds I’ve lost, or that once I hit my goal that I won’t be able to maintain it (like the yo-yo weight I’ve done my…

Help this introvert get out there
I have so many interests, tennis, hiking, golf, and especially swimming. My introversion holds me back from so many. My friends' schedules differ from mine and can’t usually join me. I know I should just get out there and enjoy it on my own. There’s a pool about 15 minutes away from me and I’ve gone with friends during the…
