Smoothies in winter
I'm having a hard time getting my yummy smoothies in my day. As good as they are and a great snack- how do y'all still get your smoothies in winter? Do I just slam it down and jump in the hot shower? How about oatmeal bowls for the snowy and cold morning?

No help from the nutritional information online , nothing in MFP, no general info from Google . Stumped . Even tried to log the food separate - the bun, the cheese , etc..how can log the…

exercise with a broken collerbone ?
Had an accident very recently and ended up with a shattered collerbone and bruised ribs. Have to have surgery to set the bone. No, not planning on any weight lifting but am curious if there are any exercises I can do after the surgery - which is just next week. I don't want to lose any muscle and full mobility will…

I posted a few weeks ago about a health issue I was having and getting off track . It's official -totally off my game . No workouts , eating bad food . Just lost it.

self sabatoge
I have been going along this journey just fine for a while-working the hell out of 1200 cal, losing fat at a steady pace-almost 36 pounds. Feeling good about my progress-and then I reach my last 10 pounds. My goal is 125-and I up my calories to 1490. Holy cow I went a little nuts eating almost everything. Slacking off on…

i'm 1 pound off from my first goal-which I cant even believe! anyway-I know the exercises I did to lose the weight. Zumba, kickboxing, running-but was thinking of slowing down a bit and trying out some yoga or tai chi. I know the calorie burn wont be the same-but im looking to maintain. Not quite sure how it works for…

Anyway, go to the store and get a digital scale-I get on and it says im 5 pounds heavier than what I thought. I know this doesn't sound like a…

what motivates you?
It seems I have the best intentions when I wake up. Today will be different I tell myself. But then whatever I was thinking/ feeling quickly changes and I am left with no motivation. I know I need to get up and moving, so my question to you is- what motivates you when your couch is so damn comfortable?

new and need support
This is my first time here. I definitely need to lose some weight. I pretend I'm okay with the size 13. That it doesn't bother me to try and shift my weight. I asked some of my friends to exercise with me but could find no one interested. I spend most of my days alone and eat out of boredom or need for comfort. I know that…
