Logged my Emotional Eating Yesterday...
What an eye-opening experience. I got some bad news and immediately went food shopping where I bought some of my favorite junky snacks. It was the first time I've ever sat down and logged everything I ate after a bad day. Usually I just say "screw it, I'll start up again tomorrow"... but there have been too many of those…

NSV :)

Carb-o-Holic
I can't get enough of 'em. I stay within the rest of my macros for the most part, but no matter what food choice I make, I almost always go over my carbs! Any fellow carb-o-holics out there with advice on how to curb these cravings?? I just can't seem to help myself.

Confused- How much should I be eating and when?!
Hi everyone, I feel like an idiot asking this question as I've done as much research as I can, but I'm still ridiculously confused. Over the past week or so I've tried adjusting my caloric intake to help me break a weight loss plateau that's kept me at the same number for about month now. Eating 1200 cals per day was…

Need advice- complete stall

I started MFP last year, fell off, and started taking it seriously after the new year. I lost about 6lbs initially (probably water weight from all the holiday overeating) and plateaued somewhere in the end of…

Struggling with the Weekends
I am looking for some tips from anyone out there who also tends to struggle with staying on track on the weekends... I feel like every Friday at 5:30pm a switch gets turned off in my brain and all I can think about is beer and junk food! I almost always have some type of social obligation on Fridays and/or Saturdays (a…
