"I would never want to be that skinny"
Has anyone else heard this comment after/during their weightloss journey? I've started noticing people say this to me a lot more and I don't even consider myself thin lol. A part of me wonders where does this comment come from. I usually just mention I lost weight for health reasons and that I am content with where I am…

Best MyProtein Impact Whey Powders to Bake/Cook With?

I use MyProtein Impact Whey Vanilla because it's the most affordable to me rn, but I was looking to extend my cooking to different flavors. I'm looking to make muffins, cookies, add protein to my cereal, proats(protein oats), mug cakes, and other desserts.…

Mentally Catching Up After Noticeable Loss?
Although I'm very happy with how far I've come, this has been something that has increasingly been bothering me. Now that I am 8lbs from my "goal" weight and starting to look "noticiably smaller," I feel like my body doesn't look like mine anymore? Don't get me wrong I love my shape, and how healthy I look and feel, but…

Clothes Shopping After/During Weight loss
When did you guys buy your first set of clothes during/after weightloss? Did you wait or buy throughout? I'm a year into my journey, 32lbs down(still not 100% done yet), although I only recently began dropping most of the weight since I started working out at the gym 5 months ago. Today was my first time shopping since I…

Want To Learn How To Jump Rope
Anyone have any tips on how to start? I see a lot of fitness programs selling their ropes, but they're kind of expensive for me as a college student. Anyone have any recommendations for affordable ropes? Any jump rope stories on how you got started would help too! It looks super fun, and as a kid the one thing I regret was…

Body Recomp Question

Share your Near Relapse Stories: Happy To Be Back On Track
Ever since halloween, there's been so much candy floating around my jobs office! I'm not gonna lie, I went a little overboard with hoarding all of the the mini snickers, reeses and babyruths. It got to the point where I was eating a minimum of 4ish mini chocolates everyday for two weeks, which doesnt seem like much, but…

Should I Keep Losing Weight?
I know the title seems a bit strange(and even concerning to some), but ever since I started my weight loss journey about a little under a year ago, I have since lost roughly 28lbs. I work out 3 times a week combining cardio and weight training. My problem is, I thought my stomach would have been obilterated by now, but it…

Is myfitnesspal healthy longterm?
I’m currently still in the process of losing weight(I have 11 more pounds to go), but I’m curious what other members do after they reach their weight goal. Is it (mentally)healthy to continue to use myfitnesspal on a day-to-day basis? I’m sure using myfitnesspal would be easy and pretty accurate but I’m wondering if that’s…

Looking for friends on this for motivation (+intro)
Hey everyone! I’m Nyesha. Just a 20 year old college student trying to lose weight and keep it off. I’m actually not a “new” member, I’ve had this account since I was about 14-15, but I never used it as extensively as I do now. I like to say I’m a “recovering vegetarian,” because I used to use it as a “quick weightloss…
