Halo top and erythritol
Hi everyone! Halo top has come to the UK and I have fallen in love with the stuff. I feel like I can finally be satisfied with dessert rather than having a tiny tiny little piece of something. However I’ve been reading up on it and apparently the sweetener used for Halo Top is erythritol. A lot of studies are showing that…

My fat macro is always slightly higher. Can I still lose weight?
Hi everyone. Most days I have more grams of fat than my macro says I should. Normally I have between 50-60g instead of 40g. Most of the fat tends to be from olive oil and a little bit of chocolate in the evening. Is this a problem for weight loss?

Ribeye steak calories
I just fought a ribeye steak from the co op. The weight is 209g. When I search the database there are so many different ones Inputed and I have no idea what to go with. If I scan the barcode it tells me it is a Sainsbury's steak which is a bit weird. What should I go with?

Roast chicken?
How can I know how many calories is in a portion of roast chicken? I like to have the leg and some dark meat with the skin but it's hard to know how big a leg the generic measurements are for. Also I can't weigh it as it has the bone. Any tips? I love a roast chicken on a Sunday and rarely make it because I don't know how…

Breakfast made me fail. What do I do?
I've had a very slow weight loss despite being on 1200-1300 per week for the past 3 weeks. Quite a few people recommended that I have breakfast as it will help speed up my metabolism and get me burning fat. I tried eating a healthy breakfast of oats and chia seeds with a little bit of rice milk this morning. However since…

Bingeing vicious cycle.. I feel like a failure
I'm bingeing around once a week at the moment. I do so well for a week or so and then I just blow it. I know that it's a mental issue and I've been seeing a therapist for 2 years but there are so many issues from my childhood that we can't pinpoint it to one thing. Has anyone managed to overcome bingeing? I started wanting…

Startling to dread going out for meals
Hi everyone, how do you tackle going out for meals on a regular basis? My family like to go out at least once a week and I am starting to get worried about going out for meals to often where I don't know the exact calories.

Gaining weight over the past week and it's depressing me!
I just don't get it. I've always had under 1600 calories per day. I started losing weight ( 3 pounds since restarting myfitnesspal) and was feeling really happy about it. To be fair I only lost if I was eating around 1300 calories so maybe my body needs less calories than most people. But for the past week the scale has…

Why oh why do I sabotage myself?
I have periods of time when I am so focused and manage really well. But once I fall off the wagon that's it! It's so hard to get back on! Every day I tell myself today is the day and I start off with the best intentions only to ruin it by the end of the day. Why can't I stop myself from reaching for the…

Daily weigher - gained 3 pounds???
I've somehow gained 3 pounds overnight. How is that possible? I know our weight can fluctuate but still 3 pounds is a lot and it doesn't seem to be going back down. Has anyone experienced this before and how long can it last? I did go over my calories 2 days ago by around 400 calories but I was still eating at maintenance…

How long realistically to lose 80 pounds?
I'm a female in my late twenties and I want to lose weight sensibly, not cutting any food groups out and saving some calories for treats every day. How long did it take for the people who have lost weight to lose 80 pounds? I'm getting married next September so ideally I need to start looking for a dress in a year from…
