I noticed the exact same thing!! I enjoy food so much more now that I'm taking the time to prepare actual food, rather than wolfing down anything and everything in sight.

Hi Lexie!! I started off at 225, with a goal of getting down to 145. So it looks like we have similar goals. Feel free to add me if you'd like! :)

If "chemical" is a bad word, I guess I should have re-thought becoming a chemical engineer

As a vegetarian who has enough trouble getting protein, I REALLY wish I liked eggs, but I can't stand them in any form. Adding eggs to just about anything is such an easy way to get extra protein without a lot of extra calories, but I can't stomach the taste, smell, or the fact that it is an egg. Yuck!

^This!

I weigh myself daily. I know that there are a lot of people on mfp who frown upon daily weighing, since your weight fluctuates day to day based on things like how much liquid you consumed. At the end of the day though, the more data you have, the more accurately you know the trend - meaning if you track your weight on a…

Sounds delicious!!

I'm 23, and am on mfp quite regularly. Feel free to add :)

Soooo ridiculously true

Well I'm hopefully going to be a female for at least 30 days or more ;) Seriously though, I am on mfp on an essentially daily basis. So feel free to add me if you'd like :)

Welcome to mfp!! Best of luck to you! Feel free to add me if you'd like :)

Yay for nerdiness!! Nerdy friend requests are always welcome over here! :)

I think this is definitely a matter of personal preference. Personally, I'm aware of the fact that my weight will fluctuate a little bit day-to-day, and that doesn't freak me out. If seeing a slightly higher number stresses you out, weekly measurements might work better for you. That being said, from a statistical point of…

Sometimes it just takes some time to adjust to seeing the weight loss. I'm in roughly the same boat as you, being 5'8 and going from 225 to 170. It's really only been very recently that I've really seen the weight loss myself. I think it works the same way as not noticing weight gain. You know when you gain 5, 10, or 15…

Congratulations! Good for you for getting so far!! Also, this was fantastically written!

I do think it depends what you have your account set to. If you're doing something that's significantly outside of your daily activities, I would log that. During the school year, for example, I'm almost always just sitting, so I set my account to sedentary. So when I spend a day cleaning or shopping, I do log that. I do…

I'm 5'8. I started at 225, and am now sitting at 175-ish. I honestly barely ever eat under 1600. I'd say I usually eat between 1700 and 1800. That has me losing about 5 lbs per month. Just remember that weight does fluctuate a little bit, and that most people are more likely to keep their change permanent if they take it…

Looks good to me!

^Couldn't have said it better myself

Ahaha touche!

Anyone who would like to, is free to add me :)

chemical and bio engineering :)

I am so surprised that this hasn't been shut down yet lol

Welcome of mfp Cindy!! Congrats on your weight loss so far!!

Welcome to mfp Lauren-Eva!! I'm a student as well, so I totally know the feeling of being stuck behind a desk for a lot longer than you'd like. Mfp is super helpful though, and I'm sure you'll do great! Feel free to add me if you'd like! :)

Yeah, having some support definitely makes the process a little bit easier. Feel free to add me if you'd like :)

It looks like you've been doing pretty well using the app! Congrats on the weight lost so far! I'm 5'9, so also on the tall side, but I guess not quite as tall. I'm also going into my last year of undergrad. I'm in a 5 year program, so I can definitely relate to it feeling like it's taking forever! Anyway, feel free to add…

Hi, welcome to mfp!! I'm 22 as well. I started off with about 80 lbs to lose, but I've lost a little over 50 of that. Feel free to add me if you'd like :)
