First date I've been on in over a year. Yep, I'm nervous. What's your vote between these outfits? 1,2,3, or 4? Thanks MFP family!!!

What's Your Story?
A couple things prompted this question. I just read a heartfelt comment of someone saying "how could I let myself get like this. Why did I let it get so bad". Reading that is crushing, you can feel the pain and guilt. Many of us can relate to that. Another thought is the judgement people face. No one sees what happened or…

Fasting 5/2 Mon & Thurs
Hi everyone. I'm new here, but will be checking in every week on my fast days. I'm sticking to 500 cals on Mondays and Thursdays, and 1500 cals on the other 5 days. My weigh in day is now Friday morning, after my last fast of the week. Hope others will want to check in weekly. I find this to be the most stress free and…

No weight loss no love?
I never would have posted this before, but having read some broad subjects on this site, it doesn't seem too off topic now. And I do notice my alien ways more so now that I read this forum. So, to get to the point, I'm wondering if anyone else has the inability to date when they're not comfortable with their weight? After…

Fitbit Question real quick!
Today is my fast day, I've only walked like 5,000 steps (been at work sitting). I got home and it said I burned 1400 calories so far. Then, poof- it updated my calories burned to 3,703!? What happened. How do I correct it?

Fitbit= game changer
The heart rate monitor seems to be the biggest factor in taking the guess work out of it. I love that I can actually trust the process now. Talk about motivating! Hope this helps others who may be on the fence or have been struggling like I was.

My diary
Will someone look at my diary for the week and tell me what they think I'm doing wrong? I have a food scale, and thought that would help, but I still gained 1 lb this week. I can't afford to keep gaining every week. I don't care what I have to do, I just need to know what that is. My mothers advice is to reduce my calories…

Question: Different days different cal goals
For those who do 5/2 or have different calorie goals for different days, what do you put in for your weekly goal? Today my goal is 500, tomorrow it will be 1500. If I put in 1500 it will assume that's everyday, and make my weekly "goal" 10,500 instead of 8,500. So, do you manually change the goal each day?

Buddhism, Weight loss, & Abuse
Weird topic I'm sure. I'll try to explain. I'm a practicing Buddhist and since leaving an incredibly abusive relationship, I've gained about 25 lbs and have acquired an unhealthy relationship with food. In Buddhism "the middle way" is key, as well as using food as nourishment rather than something to desire. Sometimes I…
