Be kind to yourself! Give yourself a day off and return to logging tomorrow. A day or two is not going to make much if any difference overall

Apart from fibro, your description of yourself was me back in January, age, height, weight, pcos, everything. I have my activity set to sedentary and wear a fitbit to capture all steps/exercise. This gives me daily calories of 1280 plus I eat half my exercise calories back, usually in total between 1400-1700 a day. I'm now…

I was diagnosed a long time ago, over 20 years. I've had two children and am now in perimenopause. I've tried many different diets and supplements meant to help with pcos over the years, but the one that helped the most is... Eat well, move more That phrase is usually 'eat less, move more' but eating less is not helpful…

Hey, I'm 5ft 4in, and have already lost 32lbs with still another 80 to go to get to 140. 140 seems a bit of a dream atm, I can't imagine I could actually be that light 😬

Thank you for all your help, some useful suggestions here. The hiking is on hold till the restrictions on going out ease but I can still go for a daily walk and with some of the above exercises I hopefully will notice a difference when we start up again. Thanks again

Thanks Ann I'll suggest that to my gp, he thinks it's probably bursitis but he is not sure.

Unfortunately I'm not able to exercise at the moment. In the beginning I was going to the gym, a mixture of cardio and weights, followed by a half hour swim 3x a week. I then injured my knee during a walk through the woods and six weeks later I still can't walk or climb stairs properly. I tried just swimming but it's…

Thank you for your replies. I know people don't look, it's just a little disappointing after all this hard work to be going away feeling slightly worse about myself. I should instead focus on the lovely new clothes I've bought to show off my emerging waist, the energy I have now for long beach walks and generally a feeling…

The bottom of my fridge has two drawers. A big chunky one where I keep raw meat and raw processed meaty things like chicken kieves etc. The other drawer is a lot smaller, half the size and has salad, fruit etc. Over the past few weeks the salad drawer has not been big enough and when putting the shopping away this week I…

Hello, I was diagnosed with pcos over 20 years ago, I know how frustrating this condition is! I've tried all different diets and must have supplements over the years for pcos. But in the end the simple eat less, move more works for me. I'm the same height as you but with a lot more to lose. Mfp has my daily calorie intake…

The mini goals I set myself is 10% of my body weight in pounds. It's nice because each new goal is slightly less than the one before but losing 10% of your body weight has such a positive impact on your health.

Yesterday at work I noticed my lanyard kept bouncing around as I walked, it took a moment to realise it was because the under boob roll of flab is reducing and it has less to nestle against. Also at work I took the stairs and was not out of breath, I went back up them later just to double check I'd not deceived myself, all…

Last summer I went ninety days without a period and spent a few of anxious minutes spent looking at pregnancy tests (negative phew!). I had been having hot flushes, just facial ones and my allergies had become worse too. Then periods returned with very heavy flooding and lasting weeks, they were all over the place. A month…

Thanks for taking the time to post a reply. I know I need to not read to much into what a machine is telling me, I just found the results interesting and puzzling in equal parts, as I said I am pretty new to this.
