I'm really struggling after losing over 40 lbs!
We went out of town a couple weeks ago and stayed with family. They insisted on eating out nearly every meal. I figured I would eat pretty much what I wanted while out of town for the weekend, then get back on track. It has not worked that way. All I want to do is eat! I can't seem to get back on track. I am so discouraged…

Tummy Tuck/Cosmetic Surgery

True Nutrition
I came to MFP a month ago because I was determined to lose weight. I had lost 5 pounds doing Insanity in just one week before joining MFP, but gave up because it was really hard on my knees. I lost 5 more pounds doing miscellaneous workouts on YouTube, but as I looked at my actual nutrition, I was shocked that I wasn't…

45 pound weight loss of a 5'0 19 year old! Pics Included
In October of 2014 I was around 160 pounds. Being barely 5 foot (4'11 3/4) this was putting me in class 1 obesity with a BMI around 31. I was sad every time I saw myself naked. I felt the need to layer everything, even in 90 degree weather so no one could see how large I was (as if that was going to fool anyone. Enough was…

Updated MFP phone app has strange Macro percentages
Hi, is anybody able to tell me why the new phone app has different Macro percentage goals on different days? I have a reasonably similar diet on most days, but the percentage goals are varying. For instance, the goals for yesterday in 'Nutrition' were carbohydrates 54%, fat 24% and protein 22% but the goals for tomorrow…

Using my fitness pal
Hi, I have been using MFP for a month now and have lost 8lb through cutting of bread, potatoes, rice and pasta. As it's been nice weather eating salad has made this easy. My issue lies with the accuracy of items listed. I am in the UK and find it difficulty to find the foods I eat measured in grams, ml and litres as almost…

What's wrong with the goal/food diary?
What's going on with creating goals on the website? Every two days my maintenance goal jumps up from 1600 to 1870kcal. I had t use the automatic goal calculator to change it back. But this time it doesn't work at all. When using the calculator it does show the presumably correct numbers, but it doesn't update on the food…

How important is counting fat grams?? Can you still lose weight with high calorie but low fat grams?
I remember reading a book years ago (early 90's) that basically claimed that men who want to lose weight should just eat less than 30 grams of fat per day, and women should eat less than 25 (I think?) grams. I'm wondering if any of you focus on fat grams at all. There are days when I will over-do the calories but my fat…

Light between my thighs
When I stand naked with my thighs together, I can see daylight. I wouldn't call it a gap, exactly (my husband does, God Bless Him!) but it's a start! I still have a little bit of a tummy, but I am hopeful that I will be at least slender enough to rock a high-waisted rockabilly style two piece this summer. My husband last…
