  • The pants I was wearing 6 years ago at an almost unhealthy skinny fat 125lbs 1) Fit (had to lose about 30 lbs) 2) Fit better than they did then (no muffin top!) 3) I am 15 lbs heavier Yay weights and adequate protein. Screw you scale!

  • I'm in a similar situation. Thanks for the reminder that my bf isn't forcing me to eat all the tasty food at his house or get fast food with him. Time to get out the tupperwares again and go back to being OCD about weighing and meal prep... We can do this!

  • If you think it might be one, I would go to the doctor. I stupidly walked around on a stress fracture in my fibula for a month going, "Why does this still hurt? and why is my tiny little stick ankle still so swollen I have a cankle?" and it meant an additional month in a big old boot :neutral: They heal in about 4ish weeks…

  • I think this has already been suggested, but have you tried going to Apps -> Ticker -> "Update your weight data" ? My weight was right everywhere else but the ticker was incorrect from a previous MFP attempt, so it had the wrong starting weight.

  • Power Crunch French Vanilla Creme. Tastes like a cookie. The other flavors are good too.

  • If you take a preworkout supplement, you might want to keep in mind that the "recommended dose" is usually formulated assuming you are an athletic male. If you are not a big burly bro dude, that dose is probably waaaay waaaay too much for you (at least until you know how it affects you). I would take half or a 1/4 of the…

  • There's a martial arts and sports fighting group on here. You might want to post this question on their forum for better answers. My two cents: I take brazilian jiu jitsu and it always kills me because we are always pushing ourselves to get better/stronger/etc. I've been training about 3 years now. We have a few guys that…

  • I'm recovering from an ankle injury. I can put weight on it, just not flex it much. Would this be ankle friendly? Obviously I would need to get the OK from my doctor first, but being unable to workout much is driving me crazy. I'm still strength training, but I miss having some good cardio to do. My gym has an arm bike but…

  • I have a nexplanon and I've been steadily losing weight while on it (about 1.3 lbs a week for the last 6 weeks and yes I weigh and log everything). I have had it over a little year and a half and it doesn't seem to be hindering my weight loss efforts. I didn't put on a ton of weight from it either. I gained a little (<10…

  • If you are an REI member, and your too big clothes are in decent shape, you might want to consider returning them. REI has one of the most generous return policies of any store ever, so its definitely worth a try. Also I had some good luck at some of their "Attic Sales" finding stuff for super cheap. Have fun getting some…

  • You can't really pick where you lose from, you'll lose all over, so you can't force your body to lose only belly fat. What does help with belly fat is mostly diet once you get down to the real stubborn stuff. You want to watch your carb intake and try to get what carbs you do eat from mostly veggies and some whole grains,…

  • I decided I needed to do something when people started asking me if I was pregnant and I definitely wasn't. I tend to gain in my tummy instead of my thighs, and for some reason ONLY my tummy/back area. At my heaviest I still have stick thighs. IMO you thunder thigh people are lucky, i'd rather have those any day. At least…

  • I'm 5'9" and my GW is 140. I must have a small frame, because everyone says my wrists are tiny and I'm always having to punch extra holes in my watchbands and bracelets. I'm somewhere around 152-153 right now, and I know that's a lot of people's GW, but on my frame, that much weight is still giving me a muffin top (my…

  • You could try cottage cheese. Breakstone actually sells little snack sized ones that are about 100 calories and they've got almost 11g of protein in that little yogurt sized cup. The Kashi GoLean cereal I usually have for breakfast has 13g of protein per serving, which is great because I don't have to try to cook an egg or…
