The "death" spiral of discouragement...
Hi! I've been on a plateau for a month now. The fact that I don't lose affects my motivation to eat well, which in turn affects the fact that I do not lose. I'm stuck... and discouraged. Any advice? Thanks!

Snacks... always boring snacks...
Hello! I am pre-diabetic, which means in my case that I have to have snacks in the morning and in the afternoon in order not to have low blood sugar. However, it is hard for me to be inspired when it comes to snacks. I don't like the usual suggestions on the web (apple & PB, celeri and PB, etc.). I would like something…

I am back after a few years...
Hello, I am a 37 years old woman with more than a hundred pounds to lose. A couple of years ago I became a member of MyFitnessPal and I lost a good amount of weight (about 45 pounds if I'm not mistaken). I had a couple of friends on here but they all went their separate ways. I remember I was so happy to filter out all the…

Working out without involving a sore foot
Hello! I have a problem and need your advise please. I have a foot tendonitis since last summer. Sometimes it goes away, but these days, it's always hurting. The solution would be to not walk on it, give it rest and take ibuprofen, but I want to work out! I had a yoga session yesterday and had a very hard time. My leg…

It's harder with my trainer...
Hello, I don't know if it's the weather (fall is always hard on my motivation) or my new official training program with my trainer, but I'm having a really hard time working out since about 2 weeks. I have a new program that implies that I go walking/running every two days, while doing muscle exercices the other day.…

The game I invented for myself to keep me motivated
Hi! When I decided to start exercising on june 26th I decided to invent a game for myself, to keep me motivated. For every 20 minutes I exercice in a day, I get 10 points (15 points for 30min). For every day I finish under my calorie goal, I get 10 points. At 250 point, I get a facial at the beautician. At 750 points, I…

Slow
Hi guys! I need a little motivation tonight. My weight loss is really slow, although I can see it in my clothes. I see all these wonderful people here who were able to drop 100 pounds in a year, so around 2 pounds a week, and I can't help but wonder how come I only lost 10 in more than two months. Were they starving…

Health NSV (maybe)
Hi! So I'm glucose intolerant and have been for about 15 years. For several years now, I had a pattern. I ate breakfast between 6 and 8 in the morning, and if I hadn't had a snack (with glucose) in the morning between 10 and 12h, at 12h I would have hypoclycemia (low-blood sugar). It was so systematic that I could predict…

Exercice... but not so much weight loss
Hi, I need your advice please. I have been sedentary all my life, but last year I have started walking a little bit (maybe 3 times a week) for fifteen minutes to get from my job to my husband's job and just that seemed to have made a difference. Doing only that, I lost about 10 pounds. On june 26th this year, I started my…

Friends with same type of situation?
Hi, I am a bit shy for asking but I need some friends, I think it would help me a lot on MFP. I have about 90 pounds to lose, give or take. I decided to focus mainly on exercice, for a change, because just trying to lose weight with food doesn't help in the long run. I'm trying to eat reasonably, without too much…
