  • I’m going through peri right now and meeting with a wellness coach weekly. I am working on being healthier. The two things that have helped me the most the past 7 weeks have been: 1. Focusing on 2-4 L water daily (I have only had 2 Coke Zero cans since I started) 2. Focusing on 100-120g protein daily and getting my veggies…
  • I’m a habitual yo-yo dieter. My body likes being in the 150s. When it starts creeping into the low 160s, I start logging and losing. Then, when I hit 148, my body plateaus. I’ve been stuck at 148 for 23 days. Some days I struggle to get 1200 calories. My goal is 120g protein, but I’m happy if I get at least 100. If I eat a…
  • I like the program, but I’m having a hard time committing to it. I do a day and skip a few. I know I need to schedule it into my week, but I keep putting it off. I’m going to commit to Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday this week. How are you liking it so far?
  • Hi, Liz. Welcome. MFP has a lot of great tools to help you in forming healthy habits. If you have any questions, reach out.
  • What healthy habits are you creating? I started back this month because I need to go to the doctor, but I want to weigh less before I go. My main goal this month is to log everything I eat. No matter what. I’m focusing 80% of my journey on making smart food choices. I’ve started the Vshred exercise program, but that’s not…
  • I'm doing carb cycling too. I like that MFP lets me set different carb goals for different days of the week. I started May 1st, and I'm already feeling a difference. I completed Day 4 of my Vshred workouts today. I just have to figure out how to keep this level of motivation by the ends of the month.
  • MFP had really helped me in the past. I focus 80% on nutrition. I started Vshred this week to help me with fitness and consistency. How are you liking Vshred? I just completed Day 4 today.
  • My mini goal is a 6-week challenge to support my friend who is going to be a June bride. I've given up soda in solidarity so she isn't tempted to drink the empty calories. I'm also focusing on my 90+ grams of protein a day.
  • I was going to try low carb, but I donate plasma. I think the end of my last cycle was a struggle because I didn't eat my Goldfish (carbs). So, I looked up Carb Cycling today. I set it into MFP so the days match my plasma days. I've set my calories for 1200, and I'm still trying to focus on 90+ grams of protein except on…
  • I was having the same issue when I tried doing it via my phone. I hopped on MFP on my computer, went to Apps, then Fitbit, and got it synced. Now it works on my phone.
  • I’m 47, and I was at my happy weight two summers ago. I had spent Spring Semester 2021 eating well, exercising and strength training religiously, and sleeping on a regular schedule. I won the Biggest Loser at work by losing 25 pounds. I want that figure back. I wasn’t skinny. I still had more weight to lose. But, I was…

  • I am going through pre-menopause. I’ve noticed my cycle is more excruciating. Is that what’s happening to you? For me, it feels like I’m being crushed by a semi truck. Luckily, the pain is only lasting one day. Have you tried calling teledoc or your ob? The first time it hit, I took a Benadryl and slept it off. How are you…
