It's a new journey every day
Three whole years ago I started this health and wellness journey. When the world was shutting down for COVID, I was hitting my treadmill or the pavement and choosing to fuel my body instead of comfort my body with instant gratification that I would very soon regret. I lost almost 50 lbs and have managed to keep it off all…

Restarting the Fitness Journey
Hello, I moved abroad during the height of covid in 2020 and put on about 30 pounds as a result of depression and social isolation in a new environment. Of course, food was one delivery order away so the pounds piled on. Now that I'm settled in and addressing my mental health, I've restarted the fitness journey and hope to…

We are all psychically capable! Experiences to share?
I know this is very off topic, but this is a thread for different off topics & I had a feeling/urge to post this so I thought why not! We all were born with psychic capability whether folks acknowledge or not is another thing. I’m have experienced so many spiritual or psychic things unintentionally and didn’t even realize…

Need some support for a chronic condition
This may be a long shot but… Does anyone know of any online support groups for people with IBS? I got diagnosed last year and I’m having a really hard time lately. My dietician thinks all my symptoms are caused by anxiety/dehydration and my GI doctor is mainly concerned about my very low weight. I’m trying my best to make…

6 months until I’m 60…
And I want to be healthier! I’m vegan and struggle with portions, so my weight has been creeping up. Now it’s time to get serious and increase my movement and decrease my portions.

Liga - go go go! (We can do it!) 💪😏
Hello to all, I'm one of those women who find it difficult to show others their part of life... but maybe it's time to come out of the closet and look at myself - what's happening to me in the emotions section, what's in my head and what and how much covers my bones (ha ha ha) I hope to find supporters here who will help…

Work from Home impacts
Just curious if anyone has experienced any physical/mental impacts of working from home? I know for me I tend to snack a lot more because no one is around to see me do it. Secondly, it’s harder to turn off my work brain at the end of the day. I feel like I’m constantly on call, especially because everyone I work with has…

hi everyone!! :)
I'm not new to fitness, but I am definitely new to MyFitnessPal. I had a CPT who suggested using this, but I never got to it.

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!…

Contemplating yoga teacher training
I’ve been doing yoga on and off since 2012-ish. For the first couple of years I had a consistent (6 days a week) mysore style ahstanga practice. I’ve rekindled it a couple of times since and have also done bouts of YouTube yoga (mainly yoga with adriene), gone to aerial yoga classes and some gym based vinyasa classes. The…

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…
