Daily Caloric Consumption
Just curious about what everyone that's having success is using as a goal? I'm 42, current weight 145, high weight 155 and goal of 133. I've been sticking under the suggested 1200 for a few weeks and seem to be stuck at 145/146. I'm moderately active - I don't go to the gym, but spend most of my time outdoors when I'm not…

August Goals - Daily Check In
(Shamelessly stole this from one of the main forums - I'd rather do it in a smaller group - it's easier to find the thread and keep up with other people's progress to encourage them/discuss things. Thoughts?) Since a new month is nearly upon us, it's the perfect time to set a new challenge and achieve some goals! So this…

Ladies - Questions about BC
I've been on Nuvaring forever and love it............but I no longer have insurance and it's $160 a month. So I'm looking into alternatives and am curious about IUDS - specifically the Liletta.

Bike People - help a beginner out! (pretty pretty please)
I need suggestions for a SIMPLE fun bike to ride on dirt roads a few times a week. I'll never seriously get into cycling - but I don't want to buy something that's absolute junk either. My goal is to ride for 30 min, 3X a week for some cardio. I have lots of dirt/gravel roads around my house to ride on. I'm 5'8" - looks…

Favorite Body Weight Exercises to work upper body - need inspiration
My workout time is currently restricted to whatever I can knock out in about 40 min on my lunch hour - in my office. Min equipment. I do have a resistance band and could bring in some dumbells. The only time I've lifted weights in the past I did circuit weights at the gym. I'm pretty ignorant about free weights. I'm doing…

PMS Weight Gain - HELP!

Daily Caloric Consumption?
Just curious as to what most of you are using? MFP says I should stay under 1200 cal/day to meet my goals, but I've been doing a bit of research and wondering if I shouldn't be more in the 1400-1600 range. 42 yo 5'8" current weight 145.2 and goal weight of 133 - my high weight was 155 I'm moderately active - decent amount…

Short Yoga Workouts?
I'm trying to find some short yoga sessions I can do daily to improve flexibility and strength. Anyone have one they love? It needs to be 20 min and under (small goals) and I'd love something with several different sessions so I don't get bored. I've been checking out Yoga Burn and considering it - thought I'd toss it out…

New here & so happy to find this group!
Whoever created this group is a genius - the last 10-15 lbs are the toughest to ditch. It's been difficult for me to maintain my motivation when progress is soooo slow. I haven't been using the forums and have been on this app for about 50 days now and would love to add any friends facing the same issues I'm dealing with…
