First of all Way To Go!!! Running your first 5k, what a great accomplishment! I started running a few moths ago and love it! I have gotten my time down in two ways. The first was was on vacation in Colorado, running at 10,000 feet for a week and then coming back to Illinois improved my time by about 15sec/mile. The next…

Sometimes I don't have any avocados…

OK, this before pic was when I was around my heaviest at around 380. I started my My Fitness Pal journey after several crash diet attempts and a diabetes diagnosis and was 352. I am currently at 202 and 5'11", I still have about 20-30 more pounds to go however after hitting the 150lbs lost I figured I should post a pic!…

Man, people are really snarky around here.... I am losing weight at a rate of 2lbs per week so I must be doing something right. I am currently 207 and would like to get down to 170. Some days (Usually once a week) I eat closer to 3000 calories so my guess is it all balances out. I started using MFP and living this way…

OK that's great but as long as you are eating properly and also strength training I don't think muscle loss will occur. Again, I am not here to tell people what to do, just sharing my experiences. I am not a doctor or dietitian or even a fitness guru. Just some dude that was really ****ing fat and needed to do something…

You are correct, no one thing will work for EVERYONE. However, with the OP being about the same weight as me when I started I think this should work for them. I am no expert here, I just know what worked for me and try and share that with people. Currently MFP has me at 1400 calories a day, this is with a goal of losing…

I started at 352lbs when I first started using MFP (I had been as high as 380 and did stupid crash diets). Anyway, a few things I have learned on this journey. Be honest about journaling your food. Calorie counting and burning is not an exact science just do your best with the information you have Don't eat back any…

Fiber One Bars, Zone Bars, Granola Squares, Light String Cheese, Sugar Snap Peas, Whole Grain Toast, Popcorn, Grape tomatoes, fruit. Those are my go to snacks. Good luck!

I kind of think eating clean can help you lose weight. If you are not counting calories and chose to eat say an apple (80 calories) as opposed to a bag of chips (140 calories) you will lose weight. Not just because of the calorie difference but because the apple will make you feel full faster and you will be less likely to…
