Restarting after a quite awful 2022.....
Hi there, Scotland-based MFP user here! Done this a couple of times before, but I've lost my way with MFP for a while, mainly because I've just had a new baby back in the summer, our family has gone from 4 to 5 and because of this, I'm finding it more and more difficult to go the gym. I got down to 16st 9lb and that was 3…

Trying to get started once again........
Hi there, Scotland based MFP user here! Done this twice before, but I've lost my way with MFP for a while, mainly because I've just had a new baby back in the summer, our family has gone from 4 to 5 and because of this, I'm finding it more and more difficult to go the gym. I got down to 16st 9lb and that was 2 years ago,…

Self confidence running
Anyone struggle with their self confidence affecting their exercise? I'll go to the gym (on the rare ocassions I get chance to) and use a treadmill, cross trainer etc but when it comes to doing road running or going out on my lunch for a run, I just can't do it. Many times I've drove to a place to do a run, and I've just…

Struggling with diet/losing weight
I'm off out with friends in two weeks and I wanted to try and feel better about myself. I've smashed the gym this week, going practically every morning or lunchtime, plus on the times I go in the morning I've been doing a 5K walk on my lunch. My food intake has been either skipping breakfast and lunch and just having tea,…

Really don't know what to do! :-(
Wanted to start afresh this new year as we've just moved to another country and I haven't been doing very well recently, but I just cannot find the time to hit the gym. I've got two kids (2.5 yrs and 10months) and they are both so demanding. I work all day, when I get home, I have tea, then have to sort out the kids and by…

NO SYNC, WINDING ME UP NOW!!!
For some reason my surge has stopped syncing calories burnt with MFP. Whenever I update my weight, or water intake it syncs fine plus it shows the number of steps I've done, but yet for some reason the calories I've burned don't show under the exercise section, so my figures are going to be out because it's taking my…

Hi there (Again!)
UK based MFP user here! Done this once before, but I've lost my way with MFP for a while, but I'm trying to get back on it in a big way this week and from now on. Now that our family has gone from 3 to 4 with the birth of our baby son 7 weeks ago, I'm finding it more and more difficult to go the gym. I got down to 16st 9lb…

What can I do?
Wanted to start afresh this new year as my fiancee is pregnant and I didn't want my little girl to come out thinking "who the hell is this fat man?". I've been going the gym and running, but don't seem to be working. I've been doing weights too but my moobs seems to be growing rather than shrinking. I never thought much…

Chest & Waist
I've lost nearly a stone since getting back healthy again and a lot of people have said they can tell I've lost weight from my face, my posture etc. I can tell by my calves and thighs as I have lost a couple of inches from each thigh, but despite me doing at least 2K calories a week and on average around 800 cals a day, I…

Hi there, I'm Lee, from Warrington, England! I've been on here before but suffered a few issues and left for a while. Obviously some of my friends on here wasn't impressed about it and deleted me. I'm back, motivated and starting to lose weight. I feel like I've turned a corner and it's thanks to this website and some of…

Is it possible to gain 8lbs in 2 days without eating loads?
I only ask this as I weighed myself last Saturday and over the course of 2 weeks, I lost 8lbs. I weighed myself on Monday and it seems the weight has been put back on. Have my scales been deceiving me or have I just wasted two weeks for nothing? This is the kind of stuff that happens to try and dampen my spirits so I'm…
