Weekly Weigh-In and goal sheet?
I can create a weekly weigh-in and goal sheet for everyone to keep track of their progress. Would this be something people would like to have or would you all rather just use the discussion threads?

Introduce Yourself and Your Goal!
Hey Everyone! I figured I would start this thread so we can all put our goals for the next 10 weeks somewhere :) My name is Jeanne. I am a 30-year old working mom. I started my weight loss journey over 2 years ago, but have had many bumps and detours. I renewed my efforts in July, and have so far lost about 40 lbs. Highest…

"Carb Cheat Day" on Keto?
So someone asked me yesterday how often I have a "carb cheat day" (their words) while I am eating a Keto Diet. As a rule I don't do cheat days of any nature. I simply find ways to fit what I want to eat into my day. I have not been craving carbs (other than ice cream in this heat) overly much, so I am not sure why I would…

Slacking off and its showing :(
I have been slacking like crazy and even telling myself as I am doing it seems to make no difference. I was sick last week so my eating habits were erratic and it was understandable. This week - no excuse other than it is so much easier than the planning and consideration that goes into meal prep. Last night for example: I…

Adding the RIGHT Weights to my Fitness Routine
I recently joined a gym and I am hoping to figure out which weight machines are the best to build a routine with. They have personal trainers there, but it costs money to use them and just the gym membership was expensive enough! My current routine is 20-30 Min Cardio, then weights- 2 sets of 15 reps at 30lbs (mostly bicep…

Keto Friendly Slow Cooker (Crock Pot) Meals
I am a working mom and I like to pre-plan my meals so when I get home I can just throw it together and be done with it. One thing I do with a friend of mine is crock pot meals that we prep in advance and freeze until we are ready to put them in the crock pot. I have been searching the web for Keto friendly/adaptable crock…

The Struggle with a Stall is:
First: I am not a naturally patient person. I have been waiting for the past week, somewhat impatiently if you ask my husband, for the "whoosh" everyone tells me is coming. For the past 2 weeks, I have sat between 292 lbs and 291 lbs. Never going up, but only going down in minute increments. While this frustrated me, I…

Looking for Friends to motivate!
Hi, I have been on MFP most of this year but have not really been using it until now. I am what I guess people call a yo-yo dieter. I try to lose weight, get frustrated and then end up worse off then when I started. I was 220 after my son was born (I had been yo-yoing between 190 and 230 before I got pregnant), then my…

Half-Marathon Training Help!
Hi! My mom and I signed up to do a half-marathon in Mid-November as motivation to kick-start our weight loss and getting back into shape. The problem is that I am not a runner at all and we only get 3.5 hours to complete the marathon, which translates to roughly 16 min/mile, and I really really do not want it to take me…

Looking for advice on weights at home...
I am trying to add a little bit of weight lifting into my day... I already bought two 3lb weights with this in mind. I did a search online for ideas on what I should/could do with them and there is a lot of conflicting advice, as well as an overwhelming number of videos/articles. Anyone have advice on where to start? I…

Starting again...
I started using this App last year but kinda gave up. I am starting again and using Weight Watchers as well. I am hoping to find some friends to help with motivation (I will be happy to reciprocate). Thanks and good luck everyone :)

Jumping in with both feet or baby steps?
People keep telling me to take it slow. Just log food for now, worry about the rest later. Don't try to lose so much at first, get settled into dieting. etc etc. But I feel like if I don't jump in with both feet and just get going on everything now, I will just let myself fall back into old bad habits that got me where I…
