Super slow losers
I don't really know what I want to get out of this post, but I just know I really wanted to post it. I have been using mfp for a year now and I haven't even lost half of the weight I want to. I lost 40 pounds in a year, and this seems to depress me more than make me happy. I journal as often as I can to help get through…

Is there like an asthmatics to 5k or something that starts easier?
I love apps for working out as I'm a very systematic person. I love myfitnesspal for food and strong lifts for weight training, so I wanted to try one for running. I do not run. I have never run. I am asthmatic and I had it as a child, so I think I may be stuck with it. I cannot start from nothing and jog for 60 seconds…

Something is wrong with my brain!
I still look in the mirror and see this huge person, but I saw a picture of me today and I was like is that skinny person me? The other day this guy was flirting with me, and all I was thinking is that he's just being nice because he's skinny and I'm fat, (not that he might LIKE me!) so I did't know what to do... How do I…

Guys! Will he always see me as fat?
I have a guy friend that I like a lot, and as I lose weight I just wonder if he always see me how I was. I do believe that a physical attraction has to be there, and I'm wondering if guys see girls lose weight and like that or will they always see you as the fat friend?

Where do you see your weight coming off?
I know they say it comes off equally blah blah blah... But I can tell it is coming off my legs faster than my tummy and I can prove it with measurements! So where do you see your weight come off the fastest?

What do you reward yourself with?
If I get to 245 lbs I'm going to go zip lining! What do you reward your victories with?

Does working out give you insomnia?
Seriously it seems like every time I start working out (which I do in the morning) I am exhausted all day until I lay in the bed, and then I cannot sleep for anything! Does this happen to anyone else? Just curious.

That magical portal through which my fat leaves...
I get really bad stitches in my side when I workout, and I have to workout because I like to eat ;) but the stitch in my side is the only thing keeping me from upping my workouts. I usually just think of it as the magical portal through which my fat leaves, but I'm just tired of it hurting me. I have asthma so I take my…

When did you start seeing in the mirror your weight loss?
I've lost about 15 pounds now, and I really thought I would be able to see a loss in the mirror by now, but I still feel that I look the same. I'm waiting on those compliments asking me if I've lost weight, but not a single one has come. I want to know at what loss did you start seeing it and getting those (you know we all…

Increase ramp or resistance?
I set my elliptical for as high as I can stand it (which isn't very high), but now I feel the need to increase either ramp or resistance because I'm not sure I could do both. For weight loss which is better to increase; ramp or resistance. I know I'm supposed to do HIIT, but this is working for me right now, so I'd like to…

Lost nothing now losing a lot
So I have been dieting and exercising for about a month now, and I have very slowly lost 5 pounds. Two days ago I found out that I wasn't working out hard enough and should only eat like a net of 1200 calories, so I started that, and am working out a lot harder. Now I'm losing 1 to 2 pounds each day. Is this bad? I mean I…
