Anybody know how to give an intervention?
Something scary just happened in my family and I might have to get everybody together to try to intervene. Is there a good way of doing this? I don't know anybody that has done one and I don't know what to do anymore.

B.C stunted metabolism, what can help?
So I went to my doctor yesterday and asked if maybe I was having issues with my metabolism, I had tracked a month (before I fell off the wagon because of finals and projects) and would be consuming 1000-1200 per day. He asked me if I was taking any medications at the time and I told him I was on contraception at the time…

Do "waist belts" actually help?
I just bought one (at my mother's urging) to wear while I work out and I was wondering if they actually do anything at all? I only spent $6 on the one I got just in case it's useless. EDIT: I also have a very bad back and heard it might assist with it.

water weight and b.c
I started Lutera one month ago and my doctor said it'll probably cause some water retention and appetite increase is there a way to reduce this or keep it from happening? I'm scared of it affecting my weight loss. It's gotten slower since I started it and I'm really hoping I'm just being paranoid about it. I'm working out…

Anxiety and talking on the phone?
Does anybody else have any tips for talking on the phone when you have really bad anxiety but can't go see anybody right now to deal with it? I just made a phone call to cancel an appointment and I felt like I was about to faint.

What's accountability?
People keep mentioning it on here and I don't know what it is. I keep associating it with that old South Park episode? Lol

Crunch or Planet Fitness?
I've been trying to find a gym to start going to because I'm terrified of people I know see me working out in the school's gym and there's a Planet Fitness half a mile away from my school and a Crunch about 5 away. Which one is better?

Having really weird womanly issues!
So I just finished having shark week for 16 days and I had also just started taking b.c this cycle on the first day of this fiasco. I'm down to four pills before I have to start the inactive ones. Do I have to start the inactive ones right away or can I start my next set of active pills? Also I can't reach my doctor at all…

Phentermine withdrawals?
So I stopped taking Phentermine and before anybody starts lecturing on why taking them was a bad idea and how I'm about to gain everything back I am aware and I'm stressing the words STOPPED TAKING. I'm in the 15th day of my period, is this normal when you've been taking it? Four days after I started taking it I had a day…

DRESS SEASON 2016
Who is hyped to finally have weather where you can wear dresses and not ten layers of pants and an overcoat that gives you the figure of the endless void??? B) (Getting dresses after losing weight feels so rewarding also!)

Quick healthy breakfast options?
I'm going back to school in a couple of weeks and I'm terrified because my school only allows breakfast from 5:30am to 8:30am and I don't have to show up to class until around 11am sooooo what are some quick healthy breakfast things I can make in my dorm room?? I usually drink a 24oz vegetable juice I make but I don't…

MFP just reminded me to weigh myself today but shark week just started also so I don't know how accurate it would be, how long should I wait before checking the scale? Also, sub question!

Drinking those veg/fruit/nut juices from "cleanses" but not for cleansing?
A few weeks ago I tried to do the blueprint cleanse but after a few hours I was like "....why can't I just eat these same items I don't get it....this is weird bye" and I also now know that you don't need to detox/cleanse your body. My question is, can I still incorporate some of those juices (homemade though because i am…

Encounters with the shake-cult pyramid scheme kind?
Everybody has those people they went to school with that now sells "healthy shakes to get fit" and despite the fact you know they're not a nutritionist they're suddenly a "lifestyle coach". My mother was at the gym a few months ago and a couple of women started hounding her to join them, thankfully I warned her about these…

trapped in a room for 10 days, at home work out recommendations?
Soooooo I'm going to be staying in an apartment for ten days in a couple of weeks before I start school again. Using the free 5 day trial at New York Sports Club is a possibility, but the commute to the closest one will probably be a nightmare. I do not want to go without working out it's become one of the only ways I can…

Bread baker who ate ALL THE BREAD trying to return to previous weight
Hiiii, I'm not really sure how to properly introduce myself. I'm 23 and for the past two years I've been attending CIA as a baking student being around cooks and bakers and delicious food all the time was too tempting to me! I've finally graduated and have time to work on me! It'd be great to meet some people with similar…
