Struggling
Hey everyone. I've used this website since 2013 have went from 326 to 254 (with my initial goal of 245). I track my calories. I exercise 5 days a week on average still, but I can't manage to quit drinking. I usually have 20-25 beers or so, give or take a few, about 6 nights a week. I work full time and feel fine. I don't…

Running Daily?
Is it safe/normal to run a few miles daily, or at least 6 days a week? Or should you take a resting day in between like for lifting?

muscle from cycling
I've been following a strict diet, and started bicycling a little more than a month ago. I've lost a decent amount of weight so far with just diet, but wanted to add in more exercise. I ride my bike 13-20 miles 3-4 days a week, tracking it with the mapmyride app, etc... Everytime I step on the scale it seems like my weight…

Bicycling Daily?
Hi, I've read a lot of different information on this, and forum posts with varying opinions. Do you ride everyday (for exercise), or do you take a day off in between like weight-lifting or something? I'm just trying to burn calories not race (yet aha). I just started riding again. Yesterday was my third time. I went 13…

Jalapeno Fresco Spicy Chicken Sandwich
Hi, I noticed a sandwich at Wendy's today called the "Jalapeno Fresco Spicy Chicken Sandwich". I'm not much of a fast-food person, but I do love spicy food and was caught out on the road at work, so I pulled over to try one out. Apparently it's really new. I'm having a problem finding the nutritional information so that I…

Losing It
So for the past two years I've successfully been able to lose over 60lbs through consistent dieting and exercise. Losing weight honestly felt like it was incredibly easy. I didn't find myself struggling at any point or even thinking about it that much. It just kind of happened. I always felt great though, mentally and…

Just Confused
So I've lost a bit of weight over the last year. I realized I really wanted to crack down to finish off these last lbs. I've been logging into MFP, measuring and logging everything I consume down to the crumb. I've also been tracking and logging my exercise as accurately as possible for a 16 day streak. 99% of these past…

Ankle, knees, hip pain
Hey hey! I'm 26 years old, 6'5, 288 (down from 326). I've been walking anywhere from 3-6 miles a day the last 4 months probably. When I started it wasn't everyday, I had to build up to be able to do it at a decent pace. Now, however, it's been everyday. I'm find my ankles, knees, hips, (sometimes back) and legs generally…

Overate...but still hungry?
This hasn't happened to me before, and I'm a few months in and almost halfway to my goal... My calories are 2500 a day to lose 2 lbs a week (roughly). I'm typically a water (or a couple beers) kind of guy but today I was feeling a sugary soda and a rather large lunch. I tracked it all in my log as accurately as possible…

My Downfall
I've been working on losing weight since the end of Feb, or beginning of March. I do well, but my downfall is drinking (beer). Walking, exercising, eating the perfect amount of calories 95% of the time... Today, I just got off work and all I wanted was a beer. So I brought two upstairs to update my log for breakfast. I…

New and saying hello!
Hi, My name is Daniel, 26 year old male, from Pittsburgh, PA. Well, I guess I can start by saying back in Feb. sometime I decided I definitely needed to start eating healthier and lose weight because I've been on a steady incline of weight gain since 2008. Here is a little backstory: When I graduated high school in 2005, I…
