150+ lbs to lose?!?!
I'm looking for friends that have a massive amount of weight to lose like I do. I started the year at 375lbs and have a goal of between 175-200 (I'll know better where I want to be when I'm there). Hoping to lose at least 50lbs this year. Please friend request me. I use the app and for some reason I dont get notifications…

Hoping to lose 50lbs+ in 2019- need buddies
30/f Highest weight (and sadly current weight): 370lbs I would love to be under 300lbs by the end of the year, but I felt aiming for 50lbs was more realistic and obtainable. Of course my goals will change once I get there. I am looking for others to help keep me motivated. I know I need to do this.

Real Equipment vs Heavy Stuff around the house
I was trying to talk to the bf about how I would like to start going back to the gym for the weight lifting equipment. His response was "why don't you just swing a sledge hammer at a tire for 20 mins or carry around 2x4s?" I get that it can work, but I really like the structure of going to the gym. I have a membership, but…

Is it possible to not lose the girls?
I don't really have much to lose there, unfortunately. It really seems unfair, what's the point in being fat if you don't get big boobs? Just to put it in prospective: CW: 325lbs Bra Size: 44C let that sink in. That pretty much is flat chested for a big girl. No hate on the small chested fit women, but it looks…

Not new, but starting over
Hello again. I have been a member here for about three years, but over the past year I have gained back all the weight that I had lost. So I am starting over. During my inactivity most of my friends on here have moved on without me or have become inactive themselves. I fail at this kind of thing so I guess all I want to…

Couch to Half Marathon... can it be done?
Ok, I know everyone is going to immediately say "Yes" to that question so let me explain a bit more. I am 24 years old and I currently weigh over 300lbs. Dieting has always been hard for me, but I love to exercise, but lack motivation for the most part. So I have gone years without doing much of it. I recently started…

I heard about Strong lift 5x5 today and want to know if anyone here has done it and/or would recommend it. I'm not looking to get bulky. Just strong. I'm currently reading the .pdf and wishing he'd just get to the point. lol.

Should I lower my Cal intake?
I am so tired of it. Last month I was sick and the doctor put me on Prednisone, a steroid. On it I gained back all of one lb that I have been working so hard to lose. I didn't let that stop me though I got back on my MFP plan as soon as I was off the meds (I couldn't keep it while on them as they make you feel like you are…

What should my lifestyle multiplier be?
I don't know what to set my lifestyle multiplier to. I want to say sedentary, but I don't want to go too low because 1) I don't want to be too restrictive right away because I know I will give up and 2) if my lifestyle burns more cals than I think it would and not lose weight because I wasn't eating enough. I guess you…

Bruising?
It seems that ever since I joined the gym I have been finding a lot of bruises in places that I have no idea how they got there. Particularly on the tops in inside of my legs. Could this be caused from working out?

"Breakfast?"
When people say breakfast what is really meant? I usually work nights and tend to sleep most of the morning away. So by that time the typical breakfast time is over. So I am always worried when things say "eat breakfast to lose weight" because really I never do. I do tend to eat lunch not too long after I wake up though,…

Another Newbie
My name is Allison and I am 23 years old. I have always struggled with my weight and at times just didn't care. It is time to change that. I am way overweight and it has become a barrier to much of what I would like to accomplish with my life. I tried using MFP before, but it was only with the app. This is my first time…
