I've lost a 3-pound tub of super premium ice cream, what about you?
Down 24 pounds since the beginning of the year. It hasn't been easy, but it sure has been worth it. What is your weight loss equivalent?

Stalled weight loss, how long is too long?
So I'm a daily weigher and for 7 consecutive days I have weighed exactly the same. I keep my calorie count around the same daily, burn around 800 calories a day and don't eat any of those calories back. I have started doing HIIT, around a week and a half ago so I'm not sure if I'm gaining muscle or if it is a diet issue.…

Treadmill Running vs. Actual Running
I have started running on my treadmill, and have ran a few times. My question is how this running compares, in your experience, to outside running. I would like to get to the point of going outdoors for my runs when the weather is a bit nicer and not so cold. But I'd like to know what I can expect when I head outdoors. TIA

Eating out go-tos
I just went out with the family for pizza and wings, their choice so I had to be strategic and stay within my macros. Share, what's your typical or favorite eating out meal that is tasty and keeps you on track?

Looking for information on workout types
I really need to figure out a solid workout that offers some major results. Right now I am just concerned with getting my 10K steps in a day, which I usually do. Problem is that I haven't incorporated any strength or resistance. Questions: Where did you start? What workouts do you like, and how can I get started? Thanks!

Best exercises to tone upper arms
I have been back to tracking, eating clean, and doing some cardio, but have noticed that my upper arms are needing some attention (badly) lol. I'm looking for suggestions on how to tone those puppies up. Tank top season is coming soon and I don't want to hide behind longer sleeves. I want to enjoy the sun on my skin :) I…

New to this part of my journey
So I have made the decision to stick at the weight I am now. I have worked hard over the past 90 days to reach a weight I am happy and confident with. Now the scary part --- I have never done a maintenance program. I know MFP will help keep me accountable and the tools are great. But, this is an unfamiliar place for me. I…

Smoothies, too much sugar
I have started doing smoothies for breakfast since they travel well and are fairly simple to make before my commute to work. After logging them for a few days, I have quickly realized that what I started out thinking was a good idea, is full of too much sugar. I haven't strayed too far from what I've been putting in my…

Logging Exercise and Eating earned calories
I have been working out but not eating back my calories, so looking at my reports, it doesn't show that I've been working out at all. I just don't want to have to eat those earned calories. I am consistently losing (so far) about a pound a week. Question is: do I need to log my exercise or is it no big deal to not? TIA

Milestone met, now what?
I have met a great milestone - I have lost 12 pounds and am down a pant size. My question is - now that I am down a pant size, do I stay cumfy in those pants or go down a size that is kind of snug? I don't want to lose momentum on my loss, but I also don't want to stay in my lose-fitting jeans and get to comfortable…

Milk Alternatives
I have just come to the very sad realization that I cannot have any milk products (I've figured this out by the terrible tummy reaction I have when I have any). Are there any other lactose intolerant people who can help me out? What alternatives have you found to cheese, yogurt, ice cream...those things that are so tasty.…

Yo-yo No more

I started the site over a year ago but have only just recently have gotten serious about my weight and goals. I could use some new fitness friends to get ideas and motivation from. I'm the mom of 4 wonderful…
