Just a reminder for the 100-150 pounds to lose group
I just wanted to remind you all that I created a group a while ago for those of us who need to lose 100-150 pounds. We have a group of very supportive women who weigh in weekly, talk about recipes, discuss challenges and we all know one another's goals. If this sounds like something that you would be interested in, shoot…

Should I stop or should I continue...?
I started 30 day shred on Friday and I became incredibly sore. I realize that is to be expected but, I wasn't able to walk up and down the stairs, I'm still not able to sit without almost crying because my thighs are horrible. I had an emergency C section a month and a half ago, I just feel like maybe I pushed myself too…

Changing calorie intake number?
I put in all of my information and it asked for how many pounds I want to lose per week so, I chose 2. MFP gave me 1500 calories a day to eat but, I feel like that's too much for me. I swear that I once saw a place to enter in your own calorie intake to follow but, I am not able to find that again. Can anyone let me know…

I am in need of help from those who have been successful...
I am in need of help. I have only lost 8 pounds since actually starting the website or else, I have lost around 40 pounds. I am unhappy with my back. I have A LOT of back fat above where my bra lands... It flows over the top and makes it look gross. Does anyone know of any exercises that worked for getting rid of that?…

Starting 30 day shred... what a wonderful group
I am Paige. I am a new mom and very proud of my daughter, just not my new body.... I am in my mid 200's and going to be starting 30 DS tomorrow morning. I weigh in every Thursday but, I am wondering if it would be beneficial to not weigh in at all during my challenge and see the overall results from eating healthy and…

My name is Paige. I am engaged to my best friend, Mark and we just had our first child, our daughter's name is Journey! I decided to join my fitness pal when I realized how overweight I was when I saw a pregnancy picture.

1400 calories to eat- how much to burn?
Is anyone else eating 1400 calories a day? How many calories do you try to burn daily? I have 90 more pounds to go until I hit my goal weight and I am really looking forward to working out, I think that it will help me out to see results.

90 pounds to go....
I have been following my clean eating on my fitness pal for 3 weeks and I have lost a total of 10 pounds... I feel really discouraged though because, my overall goal is to lose 100, that means that I have 90 more to go! I feel like no one understands how I feel because, everyone that I talk to doesn't have that much weight…

I have never been this disgusted with myself
Today, I sucked it up and I took my dreaded "before" pictures. I should have done this 6 pounds ago but, I couldn't ever push myself to do it until tonight. I put a sports bra, a tanktop and some skin tight black pants on and I set a self timer on my phone's camera... I stood in my living room and what I saw on the screen…

Your success...
Did you have more success from eating your daily calories and NOT eating your burned calories back or did you have more success from eating your daily calories and also eating your burned calories? I am trying to figure out how I want to do this and I have 94 more pounds to lose. I don't know what the best success rate is…

People should share
I really wish that when people posted their success pictures, they would always include every single thing that they did to lose the weight. All of you are such a huge inspiration for someone like me with 94 more pounds to lose. Every time I feel like giving up, I look at the success story message boards and look in…

I am so discouraged
I am almost 40 weeks pregnant (3 days left) which explains why I haven't started on my weight loss yet. My entire family who knows everything about weight loss apparently, isn't ok with what I am doing afterwards. People keep telling me "you're doing the wrong thing", "you can't count calories while breastfeeding", "you're…

I want your secret
I plan to lose 100 pounds and I love hearing people's success stories and hearing their "secrets" as to how they did it. I am going to make a lifestyle change by eating healthy, counting the calories that go into my body, exercising and trying to cut out soda. What did you do that made you so darn successful? What…

Soundtrack to your workouts
I am putting together an exercise playlist... (I know, I know) and I am wondering what your favorite UPBEAT, fun and energetic workout songs are. I am excited to hear about them. I really like "sexy and I know it"- LMFAO and "I get crazy"- Nikki Minaj.

I sure am doing a lot of research...
I have been doing a lot of research to make sure that I get the best possible results after my daughter is born. I am 39 weeks pregnant and dying to have her so that I can be with my baby and start on my weight loss. (Before you jump on me about spending time with her and taking it easy for 6 weeks, save it, because trust…

Do you have a routine?
I have been doing a lot of weight loss research so that once I have my daughter, I can get started on an exercise routine (once I am given the OK to exercise other than walking again) to lose this stubborn weight that I have had for YEARS! My long term goal is going to be to lose 100 pounds and I am ecstatic and eager to…

Any weight loss youtubers or vloggers?
I love (and I think am addicted to) watching weekly weigh-ins on youtube. When I start losing, I plan on taking pictures, taking videos, journaling, message boarding etc. just to keep on top of my game and be able to brag about everything that I do and have done. Is there anyone who is a part of MFP who is doing or did…

Anyone willing to be my fitness pal? ;)
I am a young female who is going to give birth to my perfect and beautiful baby girl any day now. I was on a weight loss adventure before getting pregnant and I have even more to lose now that I have pregnancy pounds on me as well. I plan to lose 100 pounds and I have a goal of doing this by next year (same time). I am…

Do you add supplements to your diet?
I have heard of a lot of people choosing to add protein shakes, protein bars, slimfast, vitamins, etc. into their diet in order to help them. I don't know anything about any of these supplements and I am hoping to learn more. Why do you take them? What do you take? Have they helped? What have you noticed about taking them…

Every day: What do you add to your meals?
I have heard of people adding protein shakes, slimfast drinks, protein bars, "luna" bars?, and other supplements. I don't know anything about any of those things and I would love it if someone could explain it to me. Why do you do it? What do you do? Have you noticed a difference? Thanks!

Would this be worth asking for?
I want to get a journal to track my measurments, my food, my activities, my progress and my weight loss. Would this journal be a good one for me or do you know of something different? I will also be tracking on here but, I like having something on paper and something that is more electronic.

Losing weight while breastfeeding?
I am 38 weeks pregnant at this point and hopefully I will be having my daughter any day now. I hope to breastfeed and I am hoping to get some tips, support and advice from other mother's. I have a 100 pound weight loss goal and I plan on starting as soon as I give birth. I will walk and eat right until I am given the OK to…
