The post is a bit confusing, 'recovery after shrinking' and being sick sound both bad, while NSV and the fact that the pants don't sag, show that the OP wants to recover some weight, after becoming a skeleton. :smile: I guess it is good that the pants don't sag. If that's the case, how much do you want to regain?

Exercises are well needed to keep the metabolic rate high, therefore help the weight loss. You did mention that exercising does nothing for weight loss: "We should be active, just elaborating it’s not necessary for weight loss because it isn’t. It’s certainly important for other reasons (health), and can aid weight loss…

Hi Tina! I am following your progress and I am SO PROUD of my fellow Romanian inspiration! I don't know about the Facebook private group for Romanian women but I would fit right into the description. 😁 Keep up the good work! One year of life changed! 🍾👏

Hey everyone, what are you up to today? Nice weather (still) around here, about 18 degrees to come in the afternoon. Are you working from home or working out from home? :smile:

Hey all, I am 40 and feel much better than when I was 20. I loved 30+ though. :smiley: I hope I will love 40+, too. I want to lose 9 kg, 19 lbs to feel good. I look good now I cannot complain but I know myself and the recent gain of 15 lbs did not help. Great that we have a group of people same age! :smile: I turned 40 in…

I want to be ok with how I look on the beach this summer (given that I will go to the beach, not sure yet). Plus I have many clothes waiting for me to lose 7 kg to look good on me. I kind of have a wardrobe for skinnier and one for heavier. I want to use the skinnier one :smile:

Starting weight: 74 kg Goal weight for June: 70 kg Goal weight: 65 kg

Hello all! I know June 30th is close but do you still accept new members? :smile: My current weight is 163 and I really wish I reached 145 (I think better in kg but I converted). I know it's probably not doable by June 30th but I need to see some progress. I am tall so you can't say I weigh too much but for summer and…

You look great! How long between the photos, I see that you have a new tattoo and you changed the shoulder one. :smile:

Hi everyone, accepting new members in your group? I am not a new member on MFP but I did take a break of few months. I am starting today again logging the food and taking care of as many aspects of life as I can. I only need to lose about 11 pounds but I need to get back on track with being more organized, exercising,…

Good morning everyone, I will say hi again as I've been away from MFP recently. I definitely belong in this group as I have a month and a bit left and change enter the 40ies. have a great week everyone. I started a low-carb and pay attention to meals kind of process today. I want to lose 10 pounds, about 5 kg. Feel free to…

I started today :smile: I have about 5 kg to lose (would that be 10 pounds?). I will go out today for lunch and buy: avocado, cheese, some deli maybe and cherry tomatoes.

Justin updated the blog: https://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/justintorres2012 So happy for you, Justin! I am following your journey, you do well!!

I totally second this! I find it lots easier to dress-up in a dress and flats/boots/sneakers and a denim jacket if needed than to match the parts. I wear dresses most of the time, summer dresses and fall/winter dresses, just a wonderful easy piece to wear.

Have you had your thyroid checked? Feeling tired and not losing weight easily are both symptoms of hypo. Not necessarily the answer, but worth checking it. I do have Hashimoto (auto-immune hypo -thyroid, not influenced by food or something) and under treatment for years. It was clearly a huge difference when the treatment…

I am sedentary, yes. I actually drive to work, sit at my desk all day long, not even getting up ever hour or 2 as I should. At least I drink water. I don't know when 8 hours have passed. 🙁. And I don't walk either, I drive pretty much everywhere, logistically I cannot walk to get the kids, take them to activities and so…

And the same calculator gave me an ideal weight of 142-146 lbs (64-66 kg)

Look, I calculated here: https://tdeecalculator.net/. I am 38, 5,9 and 69 kg (152 lbs?) So my TDEE is 1,720 cals. That, for a weight loss the deficit should be of 500, I guess this is why MFP gave me 1,200 which is absolutely fine with me, I am not feeling hungry or something. :smile:

My TDEE (I am in the normal BMI range, 22.5) is 1715 so if I want to lose weight, MFP gave me 1200/day. And I am tall: 5.9 (or 175cm).

Hi, I could use some more motivation to continue especially with the fitness/training. Happy to cheer for you and would love to have more friends!

Hello all! I had a dance-aerobic cardio training today that made me sweat and enjoy life. :smile: . I stayed under my calories and now I have a glass of wine. (It's quite late in the evening) MusterQ, we have the biking in common, I have my indoor bike I use daily plus the outdoor I use 2 times/week. Hope to be able to use…

Good morning, everyone. The weather is getting colder here, too. Bicycling today and staying under the calories goal. Weekend is closer!

Hey everybody! No workout this morning and it will be a movie night but I will include some biking this evening. 38, 5'9'' (1,75 m) and 152 lbs (69 kg). Goal weight is 136 lbs but more important body definition and increased strength. :smile:

I am 5'9'' and I had to look it up, I use metric :smiley: And I cannot eat apples, I love apples but cooked not raw, I can't stand the bite-sound. :smile:

I've just finished another indoor bike session. I do one in the morning before going to the office and one at night. Food has been ok with some major slips this past weekend. A nice evening to you, all!

Good morning everybody! I started the day with my indoor bicycle and then breakfast. I forgot how good it feels to workout in the morning :smile: A good week to all!

...and how do you know that? :fearful:

Happy Friday everybody! I have 40 more minute and finish work for today...short day! :D Let the weekend begin! I have a party/concert I will go to tonight so I'm pretty excited. Not sure what I will be able to eat/drink...I will log everything though!

38 here. Good morning all! :smile: Today I have a dance-aerobic class I am very excited about! It's at 18:30 and I hope no food after the class. Have a great day, you all!

Onedownchic, do I get this write, that you are actually eating the calories burned by exercising and the total accumulated is actually 1000? that mean that you are actually eating 1,700 to 1,900 calories but you "burn" 700 or 900? I think this is the issue actually, the logging of the exercise. I don't think that you…
