Major weight loss and hair thinning
Has anyone else experienced a lot of hair thinning with their weight loss? I lost a bit over 100lbs in a year, and have noticed a very significant amount of hair thinning. Used to have very thick hair but over the process it just seemed to be falling out much easier while showering or brushing my hair. Which has left me…

Lost motivation
So may be looking for some accountability friends. I started dieting in at the end of august 2016, so just over a year. In that time I've lost 110lbs. I still have 60 more to go but am finding it impossible. It's just an endless binging cycle the last couple months it feels like (started when I got my new job which made…

365 days, down 107.5 lbs
Today marks one year since I decided to make a change, first went vegetarian which cut out almost all fast food, and a little while after that gave up soda and started counting calories and using MFP daily for logging. Have definitely had ups and downs, in fact in July I only lost 3lbs instead of my 10lb goal due to…

Planning a cheat day?
So I've never liked the idea of cheat days, but with my 21st birthday coming up, I really want to be able to enjoy it... My original goal was to lose 100 in a year and then take my time with the last of the weight (will probably be another year and a half to lose that) been averaging around 2lbs a week, leaving me with…

Mind catching up to weight loss?
How long did it take for you to feel like you had actually lost weight? Started at 308, down to 223 now after 8 1/2 months, still a long way to go, but feel like there isn't a difference when I look in the mirror. Finally starting to look at smaller spaces and realize I can walk straight through them rather than turning…

Overate
So today I ate at least 2700, maybe 3000 calories. Obviously bad, my goal is 1700, however on Wednesday I didn't eat (various reasons) so should I still be able to avoid gaining any weight from this aside from water weight, since my weekly calories should still be in a deficit?

Realistic weight loss goal
What is a realistic weight loss goal for someone my size? 5'8 258lbs, starting weight was 308 in august 2016. Should I still be aiming for 2lbs a week relatively easily, when should I expect it to start slowing down as I get to a lower weight?

MFP calorie vs BMR calculation
I'm 5'8 and currently 265lbs, started at 308 in august, have been trying to reduce my calories a little more but not sure how much to. MFP says 1800 is my daily goal for losing 2lbs a week(my weight and goals have been updated so its current), but based on the BMR calculation and multiplying it by 1.2 for sedentary (I'm a…

How low is too low for daily calories?
My calorie goal for the day according to MFP is 1800, but probably 4-5 days a week I'll end up staying anywhere from 900-1200 calories, every once in a while have a bad day where I'll hit 2000-2500 but not often. Started dieting in august 2016 at 308lbs, now at 266 and feel like it's not coming off as much as it should for…
