Am I eating the right number of calories?
I've been on this forum for a few years now, a few years ago I successfully lost around 80lbs but then re-gained some, I'm now working on getting to my goal weight (SW 249, CW 192, GW 143). I'm struggling with my weight loss recently, I "re-started properly" during confinement but the weight has been moving very slowly…

"Inspire HR" programming problem
Hi everyone, i have a inspire HR fitbit and it's acting a bit strange - when I exercise I can usually choose from running and weights and other things, but now my options are "Running" and then "Pilates", "Pilates", "Pilates", "Pilates" and "Pilates" - anyone else have this and know how to fix it? I've already charged it…

Nearly 4 months in...
[Photo 1: October 2016 | Photo 2: this morning after working out] So I've been logging for 114 days now and am down nearly 42lbs. I'm nearly halfway to where I would like to get to, and being on this board every day for motivation I thought I could perhaps do the same for others. I myself don't really see a difference, but…

New user - I don't understand the calorie function
Hello everyone, I got my fitbit (inspire hr) almost a month ago to primarily help me with my weight loss, I am 40lbs to goal weight and wanted an hr monitor for more accurate cico readings. On MFP I have 1200 calories allowance, I eat back my exercise calories if I'm hungry enough. On the fitbit (I don't remember where it…

Advice needed: How to tell a family member that they need to lose weight
I spoke with a woman today who has a severely overweight nephew. He is 28 years old and has 100+lbs to lose, and as he lives overseas and just came to visit she saw how serious the impact on his health was - we live in Paris and it's very hot right now, he couldn't go sightseeing or walk around too much because it is…

51 lbs to goal weight
Hello folks, As the title implies there are 51lbs until I reach my goal weight. I've been at it for a while, I started in November 2016, dropped 80lbs fairly quicky, took a really long pause during which I gained back 10lbs give or take, and now I'm ready for the last 51 to melt off. Obviously a lot has changed since I…

31-Day Squat, Lunge and Pushup Plan - do you see results?
I saw that MFP posted the 31-Day Squat, Lunge and Pushup Plan which looks pretty amazing and doable, I was just wondering if anybody out there has done something similar before and seen results after only 30 days? Thank you!

One Year on MyFitnessPal (female, 5'8, 82lbs dow, pics)
One year ago I no longer felt comfortable in my own skin. I felt huge, I wasn’t eating as well as I could have, I was avoiding to walk, and sitting still for prolonged amounts of time was very uncomfortable. I was out of breath more often than not, and all my clothes resembled different-coloured shapeless sacks of fabric.…

Protein - I need ideas
Hi folks, I recently upped my calories and protein to 35% but now find that I struggle eating enough of it. To give you an idea, I do try and hit my macros (Sunday P 35% | F 27% | C 38%; Saturday P 40% | F 27% | C 33%; Friday P 39% | F 16% | C 45%; Thursday P 41% | F 33% | C 26%; and so on) but I don't seem to hit the…

Hello! Is anyone starting with me tomorrow? I'm using the trial month on the app, not doing the food for now but will do the three workouts per week plus 2 - 3 5K runs (am nearly finished with c25k). Doing photos and weigh in first thing in the morning before working before heading into the office.

How did you get your "mojo" back?
I'm really struggling these days. I'm currently 18kg away from my goal weight (about 40lbs) but around 8 weeks ago I completely lost motivation to go out and exercise. I had a really good thing going, too, I did the Sweat app by Kayla Itsines which is 3x strength training a week plus 2x cardio, each session around 30…

Any heavy girls doing Kayla Itsines?
I am wondering what to expect. Everyone is in agreement that it's hard, but good - unfortunately most people who post photos etc are already regular weight girls seeking to tone up, but I was wondering if anyone here has done/is doing it right now? (full disclosure, this is the workout program (3x circuits per week for 30…

Upper Body Strength: Help please
A bit of background: I started using MFP again about 4 months ago because my weight got out of control, since then I've lost 33lbs through calorie counting and doing C25K (I'm almost done with week 6), and doing a lot of active things on the weekends (walking a lot, hiking, ice skating, etc). I don't have a gym membership…

Which body lotion do you use?
As lathering up after a shower helps your skin get more hydrated, and especially with weight loss makes it smoother and supports firmness, I was wondering if anyone has found 'the best' one of them all? Is bio oil really worth the price? Or soap & glory as the reviews claim?

Measurements
I'm just logging weight so far, what has your experience with measurements been? A definite "yes obviously you should" or more "meh, if you feel like it"? If yes, which ones do you do? All? Thank you in advance!

Relationships - does size matter?
I just got rejected by someone I have feelings for, and it came a bit as a surprise because we click on nearly every level. I then obviously started obsessing a bit more than I should, and I was wondering, would it be a size-factor? I've not been in this situation before, so I was hoping on you good people and your…

Buying an Elliptical
So, folks, I need opinions please! Amazon is offering an elliptical trainer for 80€ instead of 110€ for the next 9 hours. It is significantly cheaper than my gym membership, as this is the only thing I normally do at the gym. Have any of you purchased your own trainer? Do you think this is a great idea or probably a waste…

Supplements
Do you guys take any supplements? And if so, which ones? I'm paying more attention to macros lately and there are some things (iron etc) that I don't 'top up' regularly, and am considering taking supplements for. Please share your thoughts, I'd love to hear from you!

After 30DS... Suggestions?
...which is the next best program to try? I'm also doing c25K so any program would be enhanced by running, but I've heard many different things, mainly ripped in 30 and Insanity. Do you have any suggestions? My goal is to get rid of upper body fat which I have in excess. My legs are fine. Thanks!
