Finding my maintenance

The range they’re providing me is 2500-300kcal. I am 6’3, weigh 95kg, am 29 years old, and have a fat percentage of roughly 20%. I work and…
Hello
I’ve had the app for a while now but really haven’t used until the last 3 weeks. I was having a coffee at a cafeteria and the person next to me said he had lost 50 lbs.

Why isn't the scale moving?
I eat at a calorie deficit and exercise 6 days a week. At the end of every day, MFP tells me in 5 weeks I will be down at least 10 lbs, but my weight never goes down. I’m tracking macros and hitting my goals daily. Not only do I do circuit training 3x per week, I walk daily and do yoga most days. Why can’t I lose weight?…

Newbie introduction about losing weight

Adding Wegovy to my journey...start date, 7-14-2024
I'm 59 1/2 years old and have been struggling with my weight from about age 28 or so. Nothing sticks. I am not a yo-yo dieter. Except for a stint with WW in my early 30s, I've never successfully lost weight. Mostly it just creeps up and up all the time. I got a personal trainer at age 50. Then, I tried WW, Noom, Keto,…
Weekly recap
The #1 thing I want to see in the weekly report is the same as when I complete my daily diary. I want to see ‘if every week was like this you would weigh ### in 5 weeks. This means more than daily projections.

Celebrating
Reached a new weight loss achievement, lowest weight since April today 😊
New and need motivation lol
Hey! I’m Ashlee (Ash) I’m 32 and am currently 5”3 and 175.4 pounds and my goal weight is 150. I used to be 115 but with medications it’s been pretty hard to keep the weight off and aging from my twenties into my thirties certainly has not helped at all. I have realized I can no longer eat the way I did at 22 lol.
What happens if you don't get 100g of protein a day?
Seems today was a bit more carb heavy, and adding a protein shake would put me over my calories by 100! I am going to be doing heavy exercise later so maybe it'll be okay. My question is this: What happens if you get like 60-80g of protein a day? Do your muscles atrophy?

Why is it bad to weigh-in on a daily basis?
I weigh myself on a daily basis because that allows me to track even small gains or losses. Before I used to do weekly weigh-ins on Saturdays. Should I go back to weekly weigh-ins instead of daily weigh-ins?
Weight loss vs waist/inch loss?
I want the weight (170 loss 5'9"). 8 years ago I was 140 lbs but in very good condition. How do I tell the app?
