Creating Purpose and Intention
I lost weight on here before. Fell off the wagon, got pregnant and now I have a baby. I am going to be an active mom. I want to show this little girl the meaning of feminine strength and vitality, and to give her that I have to be it. I have 75 lbs to lose, and I want to do it in a year. This year. What are your intentions?

Problems lately,
Hello FitnessPals. When I first joined the community I was 225lbs, I'm down to 185 and feeling great. However, about 4 weeks ago I started weight training and somehow I guess I justified some overeating to myself because I was working out so hard. Then some things changed with my schedule at work and now I have a half hour…

Heel spurs
So I went for a jog for the first time in a long time. I walked a lot too and took it super easy. I pushed myself only when I really wanted to and I didn't push myself too hard. I was fine for a while but then after I got home, was hydrating, sat down for a while...when I got up I was hobbling around! I could barely walk…

Handling Hunger
Alright, so a bunch of months ago I came back to MFP after falling off the bandwagon for the first time, did it for three weeks, and fell off again. People were incredibly supportive and I had a great time while it lasted, but my life took a stressful turn (I know it's an excuse, but it's a rather valid one) I more or less…

I need a routine
Right now I'm in a wash of anything goes, sleep when you can, eat whenever. This has to stop. So please, can you share your routines and maybe I'll get some inspiration for building my own?

Anybody work nights?
I've worked nights for a while and I know that quality sleep is a part of weight loss and overall health improvement, but for the time being, I can't change (I'm moving across the country in two months and things will be different then). Right now, I typically eat at 9pm, 2am, and 7am., and sleep from 10am to 4 or 5pm…

Beginner: What's everyone's favorite dancing music?
So I went to a wedding yesterday and I was nervous the whole time about the dance at the end because I am self-conscious about looking like a fool since I'm overweight and I am a terrible dancer. Well...I got on the floor and just let it all go and danced my heart out the whole time. I stopped to drink water, but other…

IHOP food is terrible for you
I work there. I love working there. I eat there a lot because I work there. The food is delicious, the people are wonderful. How did I not know the food was THIS bad for you. I've been on MFP for two days. I have some very bad eating habits and I knew that. But I had no idea IHOP food is THAT bad for you. Holy flying…

Well here's the skinny on my fat problem
I'm Kristen, I'm 27, and I weigh 208. I'm 5'4'' and I'm sick of being miserable all the time about it. I wait tables and the extra 50 lbs I've gained hurts my back and feet and I'm sick of it., but mostly I wish I had more energy. But I've been here before. I even had an account that I ended up not ever using after a few…
