Amanda's Journey from IF to OMAD
I was trying to find some place where I could kind of journal on the process and progress of starting OMAD coming from doing IF (intermittent fasting) off and on for the past 2 years. Hopefully this is the right place, if not, please redirect me; I did notice several others posting their progress but I just started so no…

Cruise Suggestions
I will be going on a 6 day cruise and am looking for some advice on how not to gain 10 lbs. My plan was to indulge half the time (which I know would still include possible gain) but I also plan to be very active whether it be walking around on the ship, at the two destinations, and/or taking advantage of the gym for…

Looking for Pals on Their Way to Losing 100 lbs, Lift Weights, and Count Macros (flexible eating)
I've been with MFP going on 2.5 and had lost 50 pounds, 3-4 dress sizes, and many inches about a year ago. Subsequently I began to gain 15-20 lbs over about 6 months or so.. seems like it came on suddenly but I went on several vacations. Surprisingly enough I didn't gain a whole dress size; clothes just fit tighter. I have…

Experiences with Varicose Veins and Exercise/Lifting

When I work out doing cardio or lifting I never experience pain and never have had any problems except for perhaps slight discomfort at times, very…

Looking For. Mutual Support: 100+ pounds, 38 down
Hey there MFP'ers, I'm sure these posts are aplenty but I'm looking for people who would like mutual support; meaning I comment on your many of your statuses, like your activities and provide support when I can, in return you do the same for me. Sadly as of late 3/4 of the friends I have now haven't been giving me a whole…

Switching From the Gym to 30 Day Shred Temporarily? Or?
So I've been working out regularly at the gym for the last 7 months from 3-6 days per week combining 30-60 mins of cardio and 30-60 minutes of weight/strength training. I've been enjoying that but recently I decided to try the 30 day shred by Jillian Micheals and decided I was going to stick with it. The first few days I…
