  • both ovarian cysts and Endometriosis can cause this. The simplest test for a cyst is an ultrasound and then if it's inconclusive or medical intervention is needed a laparoscopy can further *kitten* the ovary and the rest of your pelvic area. A laperoscopy wouldn't be by any means the first step but I hope this helps :)
  • Either pear or hourglass but you're small enough I'd say hourglass. I think the advice above about leaning out and strength building is solid. You have a great starting point to build from. 🙂
  • I personally use TDEE and for me it's steadier weightloss. So I do not log exercise calories but listed myself as active. With NEAT which requires eating back exercise calories you often deal with calorie burn over estimations which were ruining my weightloss efforts. I think you need to decide which method will work best…
  • I don't log my calories burned on MFP I customized my goals and increased my activity level to active and by doing this I avoid paying premium and I am steadily losing weight. The other option is to customize your exercises and list them as 1 calorie burned.
  • Today I woke up at 18.6lbs down towards my 20lbs lost by july goal. If I can manage to keep this loss until my Saturday weigh in it's looking good for me actually reaching my 20lbs down by July goal.
  • 18,716 steps yesterday June 15th. Most of my friends list appears private to me and I'm not able to see their posts or comment. I'm still here and working on it. I'm apparently not the only one who had their profile crash. I'm hoping to fix it. Some people re added my request and I can see their feed but I can't see…
  • An MFP glitch deleted half of my friends list today. I'm trying to re add everyone but may not be able to please accept my add or friend request me. I didn't intentionally delete anyone I don't know what happened I lost very important friends on my list today.
  • Hello everyone I was so wiped out last night I don't think I posted my step count. June 14-24,194 I stayed within my allowance. I drank at least 2 liters of water. I got my daughter a recliner and had to pull it home from the store in a radio flyer red wagon. It was both fun and embarrassing. Also whew... what a workout…
  • Happy birthday. My account feed crashed so I can't see feeds on the app or website and I'm trying to fix it.
  • Hi, I step 15,000- 20,000steps daily but it won't make me lose weight. If you add your walking as an exercise recalculate your start up activity level as sedentary because your activity level is how active you are minus what you log. I wasted 2 years thanks to not understanding that and had lots of stress. 2500 would be a…
  • So I logg it as a 24hour cycle not my personal day. Either way it's more important that the week has a good deficit than by meal. When I'm not at home I pre make and log my food so it's already part of that day even if I eat it later.
  • 15,209 today's steps Ate within deficit Drank 2 litters of water I slept poorly last night so I'm really wiped out. It was still a good day even though I'm tired.
  • 6/12/21-yesterday Steps 4,202 Water 3 liters Ate under allowance My step count was low because I deep cleaned my entire appartment. I didn't go for a walk I just got down to buisness. We lost most of our furniture when we moved and lots of home items that make your place feel like home. Over the past half a year I've been…
  • My weekly weigh in + progress report June 2- 146.0lbs June 6- 150.0lbs June 12- 145.8lbs As you can see I spent an entire week relosing weight thanks to that binge. It's a positive weigh in but I most likly did enough damage that I won't meet my goals for June with my birthday and fathers day a few days apart. That being…
  • I lose weight much better when removing gluten and dairy which are both high inflammation foods. I have Endometriosis and possibly PCOS however my official diagnosis is Endometriosis. I have to log meticulously accurate compared to others. I weigh food, I use volumetric eating and I will gain massively with cheat days. To…
  • I don't think arms look fat. I think my assessment that you're not seeing yourself with neutrality is accurate. That being said muscular arms can improve confidence so I think you'll feel better with recomping. You're doing great!
  • Steps-12,957 which is also my father's birthday 12/9/57. I ate within my deficit because well I'm not very hungry today. I drank 2liters of water.
  • 6/6/21 step count-12,083 6/7/21 step count- 15,012 6/8/21 step count- 19,314 6/9/21 step count- 13,870 6/10/21 step count- 19,318 Additionally I need added 1-40min jogg 6/7/21. On the day I discovered my manual pedometer was broken on 6/7/21 I jogged 40minutes using only the manual pedometer and then walked with my google…
  • I have to look at what got posted here for those days. I used my manual pedometer at times that week which was malfunctioning and doesn't keep the data like Google fit does. It'll take me a few minutes.
  • 19,318 steps on 6/10 Yesterday ate in deficit and drank 2 litters of water.
  • Right now I'm doing a regular elbow plank 90seconds at once. I will hopefully drop my time down to 60seconds and do 2 of those far apart in the day starting next month. After 1 month of 2minutes I plan to add 30sec to each side then 1minute ect. In a similar fashion. That's just my preference I haven't heard any particular…
  • Do you eat back exercise calories? So I'm not an athlete per say but I power walk 5-8 miles a day and stalled my weightloss for 2 years not understanding that if you're logging parts of your normal routine like gym and mucking stalls then you have to put your activity level at sedentary because it's meant to be your…
  • I Have to recalculate my calorie deficit every 10lbs so I'm guessing that's it as stated above. If you aren't weighing food that might help like said above. Increasing exercise can break plateaus too.
  • Have you considered the possibility you're suffering from body dysmorphia? While it's possible your body shape is abnormal it's as likly that you're not seeing yourself with the same neutrality another person would and are seeing yourself inaccurately. I very much agree with building your overall strength and recomping. It…
  • 24.8 BMI 149.0lbs 5'5" Most commonly womens size 8 but as I get closer to 145.0lbs My clothes get to big. Right now they fit easily no craming in the rolls if you know what I mean.
  • How many miles was it and how long did it take you? I tried for 25,000 but it was over 10miles and took hours just to manage 23,000 my PR I do believe. I don't know my hips have 40,000 steps in a day but I'd sure like to build up to that.
  • Planking is building my ab and stomach area causing my muffin top to shrink/ recomp. Everyone is different but I'm doing 90sec plank working up to 2 minutes daily. If you add side elbow planks and regular elbow planks for up to 2 minutes each per day you will likely see results. It takes a while to build up to 2 minutes…

  • 13,870 steps today Ate within deficit Drank 2litters of water
  • I went from firmly meal prepping all of my food to eating regular food sold at the store and honestly it was a bad choice. Without the weekly pre made structure I started gaining and when I gained I moved leading to a 3month free for all that caused me to gain 30lbs. I'm still trying to find my way back to that meal…
