Daily Sugar goals
Hi all! I was just wondering what people's sugar goals are set to and why? Mine is currently 45g a day as was set when I arranged MFP profile. Does it matter whether the sugar is natural from fruit or added sugar in foods? Thanks!

Calorie Goals
Hi All! As I am getting closer to my goal weight I am having trouble figuring out what my calorie goals should be each day.

Fluctuation Frustration
Hi all! I just wanted to get an idea of how much everyone else see's their weight fluctuate?

You are stronger than you know
Being completely honest I have struggled with my weight my whole life. Not necessarily due to weight gain or fluctuations but more so regarding my attitude about my weight. I am 165cm and for the majority of my teenage years I weighed 60-65kgs. A very healthy weight for my height. I thought I was a disgusting pig. I hated…
