Looking for active friends
Hi all! I have been on MFP for a while now and am looking for active, supportive friends. I am 24, 5'10, 180 lbs. As of today I have logged in 355 days in a row and have lost 28 pounds. I only have a few friends who actively use MFP and would love to have more--whether we have similar goals in mind or just want mutual…

NSV... Ran my first half marathon!
Yesterday I ran my first half marathon. It was hotter than it has been during my entire training and even though I didn't get the time I was shooting for, I don't care! I did it! It was without a doubt one of the hardest things I have ever done... and I will be doing it again this fall :) It is still sinking in that I…

I'm Back!
Hey guys, I am back to MFP again and looking for friends. I lost 40 pounds here about a year and a half ago then stopped working out and eating right due to various reasons. I gained most of it back and realized I need to be back and I need some friends to help keep me on track! I have lost about 15 again but still looking…

Anyone else despise working out at night?
So I am supposed to be going to the gym tonight to spin at 6:30. I HATE working out at night. I would rather wake up at 5am and go do an hour and a half of cardio than do even 30 minutes of exercise in the evening. I have already made it to kettlebell bootcamp this morning at 6 but I still really want to get that spin…

HELP!
Hi guys so I have only consumed 945 calories today. I know I need to eat more but I have no idea what to eat. It's late and I need to go grocery shopping so I'm working with a double whammy here... any ideas you can think of that I might be able to find in my pantry or fridge? Thanks!

Getting back to it!
So I originally started MFP back in March. Within a couple months I had lost 35 pounds! I couldn't believe it..but unfortunately ended up hitting a plateau where even with eating right and working out, I wasn't seeing any changes. Then I ended up spraining my ankle bad. I stopped working out and started eating whatever. I…

Kettlebell and carpal tunnel
Hi everyone. I am thinking about signing up for a kettlebell bootcamp and trying to get my mom in it with me. She has carpal tunnel and wasn't sure if she can do it. I tried to find some info but can't really find too much. I have never tried kettleball myself so I don't how strenuous it is or if she gets a smaller weight…

Bootcamp assessments!
So, I joined MFP in late Feb and went from eating whatever I wanted to and NEVER working out to making a pretty big lifestyle change immediately. I seriously started counting calories and actually found the time to be active. I joined a bootcamp challenge--which was a 6 week camp that met 3 times a week at 6am. Not only…

Bootcamp
So I just recently got onto this eating well plan. But to be honest, I have not really put myself on a strict exercise plan because,I'll admit it, I just plain don't like it! But, even with not liking it I obviously felt like I just wasn't doing enough to really lose weight. I found a deal on a boot camp class a couple…

Eggs: whites vs yolk
Ok, so every morning I wake up and make my 2 soft boiled eggs. Then I enter it into myfitnesspal. Then I look and I am already 124mg over on my cholesterol goal. I know that most of the cholesterol is contained in the yolk--but also from what I read a lot of the nutrients are as well. Plus, I NEED the yolk. I can't stand…

Somewhat new here
Hi everyone! I am somewhat new to this site and am really finding out how much I love it. I have always been embarrassed to talk about weight loss or admit my weight, but have not felt like that here at all..everyone is very open and helpful. Add me as your friend if you would like some mutual motivation..doesn't matter…
