  • I feel you. I'm struggling with the same motivation. I just joined a couple of the Challenge groups on the Challenges message boards. There's a bunch of different challenges, some short term, some long term, some logging based, some activity based, some goal based. But the groups seem really nice and I honestly feel better…
  • What a wonderful challenge! I'm starting fresh! i had great success previously, but life happened, I go out of the good habits and back into the bad habits. I'm a new mum and I'm struggling to make time to look after myself properly so this is a great new start for me. So my goals are really, really basic. SW: 229.3 (7/30)…
  • I'm in! I need a challenge to get me into some good logging habits. Nervous and excited!
  • I’ve not been through it, but just wanted to say good luck—you got this!
  • Thank you for posting ❤️ congrats on what you’ve lost so far! Im overweight and was so glad to not gain much during pregnancy.

Then once I'm in my workout clothes I just kind of accept that it's time to work out, and then I pretty much instantly feel better and…
  • I feel you! I tend to overeat when I'm stressed at work, too. Today I received an email from a coworker that really upset me and my day was spent trying to deal with the fallout that it caused. All day I thought "man, I really want to go home, have too many beers, eat my weight in pizza, and chill out!" I was seriously…
  • I was having just this problem earlier this week! I was going over my daily fat allowance every day so I decided to look into it a bit more. Basically, there are good fats and bad fats (olive oil, etc, being among the good kind) and MFP will let you track the different kinds in your food diary. If you go into your food…
  • I used to be the same way with Diet Coke! I honestly drank 2-4 cans a day and my dentist hates me for it. I'd crave it all day! When I decided to try stop drinking it I started by switching to Caffeine Free Diet Coke, that way I could still have the satisfaction of the flavor while I got past the headaches from the…
