Bariatric Surgery
Hi everyone, I have an appointment scheduled for the 28th to consult a physician about the possibility of getting Bariatric Surgery. Has anyone here gotten either Gastric Sleeve or Gastric Bypass surgery and do you have any information to offer or suggestions of questions I should possibly ask my provider?

Myfitnesspal Saves Me Money!
I know myfitnesspal is free, but since I started using it I find that I am actually saving money! I buy a lot less food at the grocery store since my portions are more reasonable. I eat out a lot less since the calories at restaurants are astronomical. I buy my clothes at thrift stores because there isn't any sense in…

Why is this time any different?
I'm sure most of us have gone through the cycles of dieting and gaining weight so I'd like to see if we can each share a reason why this time is different than previous times. This can serve as motivation either for yourself or someone else reading this thread :smile: This time is different for me, because this time I am…

Vacation
I'm leaving on the 26th to go to Seattle for the first time to visit a friend and I am super excited! It looks beautiful.

Do you continue to use myfitnesspal on vacation or do you just take your vacation and enjoy…

Sugar
My name is Rebecca and I'm addicted to sugar. I tend to try to save enough calories so I can have a rice krispie treat in the afternoon and a serving of ice cream in the evening. I'm the type of person that no matter how much "real food" I eat, or how full I am after eating, I will NEVER feel satisfied until I've had…

Weekend Binge Eating?
Does anybody have any advice for staying under my calories on the weekend? I seem to be very good at staying on track during the week, but the weekends just throw me for a loop. It helps that during the week I'm busy at work or the gym, so I can stick with an "eating schedule," plus I eat a lot of the same things every day…

Introduction & General Questions :)

Back in 2014 I went on a weight loss drug called Qsymia and with the help of that and eating relatively low carb I lost nearly 35 lbs (going from…

Staying Focused/Getting Back on Track
Hi everyone! I'm Rebecca, I'm 23, 5'4", and I currently weigh just over 200 lbs. I haven't been overweight all of my life, only as an adult. Last year I did really well and I lost about 35 lbs going from 215, to around 180. Then I started school and I lost my focus. I maintained 180 for a long time until around May of this…

Hi there :)
I am Rebecca, I am 22 years old and I suppose this introduction is a bit late into the game. I have been using MFP since June and have lost 26 pounds so far through diet and exercise (yay me!) I am looking for other friends and people to help keep me motivated and on track since I am about to start school next week so my…
