I have been stalking his info for a while on his Thyroid work and wondering if he is just a fraud with a good marketing plan and supplement to sell ; or if there is actually something to it. He is a Naturopathic Endocrinologist and the author of The NY Times bestselling Adrenal Reset Diet, The Metabolism Reset Diet and The Thyroid Reset Diet. If anyone has checked his program out , would be curious what your experience is ..read more

Good morning all, I've been lurking here for a few months but I've not posted before. I hit 17stone and 28+%BF on 21st Jan (238lbs, 6'2" male, 44) and realised it was time to sort myself out. I put my kit on and went straight to the gym. Since then I've been going consistently at least 5 times a week and at the beginning on March I started counting calories with the help of MFP. I'm happy with my progress, currently 13st (182lb) with 17% BF and my original target was 12st12lb and 13% BF. I will drop below that weight though to get the fat off so I'm not sure what the current target is. Anywa ..read more

Hello, I am going on a vacation in June and I was wondering if I needed to count calories on vacation. It will be about 10 days long. I have lost 4 lbs these past 3 weeks or so. I hope not because i do not want to be too stressed about eating just like at home. Edit: I will post an update in the end of July. All of my weight loss questions have been answered. Thanks for the answers and support! I wish yall luck aswell ..read more

Hi there. I’m not sure if this is a silly question or if I’m misunderstanding the app’s calculations. I have been using the app to count calories for over two weeks now. For the past couple of days I have been 146 and 418 calories under my 1500 calorie daily goal respectively. Yet when I press “complete diary” at the end of the day, the app says that if I keep eating like this I will gain six pounds in the next five weeks. This is quite disheartening and I’m thinking it must be a mistake. I admit it’s been very difficult to meet the app’s macro goals and I often go over the fat goal even with ..read more

39M/5'5/138lbs. Been losing for about 9 months, starting at 220. Currently running a goal of 1775 for calories. Trying to lose the last of the fat before clean bulking on a modest surplus (100-200 cal,) aiming for around 130lbs. I've been lifting this whole time, so I'm trying not to lose any muscle while getting down to goal weight/body fat. I've seen suggestions for a 40p/40c/20f split (178g protein, 178g carbs, 39g fat,) to help maintain the muscle, but sometimes the protein can be a tough one to hit. Can definitely make some dietary adjustments to get there if it's worth it, but wanted som ..read more

I logged into MFP today for the first time in over 2 years. I was happy to see that I am 10 lbs lighter than I was 2 years ago! It seems that I get stuck an awfully long time at the same weight, and then it’s as likely as not to go up instead of down. But I keep trying to make healthy lifestyle choices and in spite of the roller coaster, I’m happy to see that over all I have dropped 10 lbs!! At this rate, I may reach goal before I die! Lol. ? (I’m 73 and going strong ..read more

So back in January I lost a stone calorie counting (1600 a day), I managed to keep 10lbs off and have started again but can't seem to lose anything and only lost in the first week!? I'm week 3 now... I'm really having to keep positive and keep going but it's so hard. I've now lowered my calories to 1400 in the hope I see a difference. I'm currently 12 stone 13lbs, 5ft 4 ..read more

Hi there I’m Rita! I’m new to MyFitnessPal, I’ve been on a whole foods plant based diet for 2 and a half years. I learn new things about nutrition daily through my own experience and or research. I’m finding macro tracking to be a bit hard or overwhelming at the moment. I eat very clean and healthy not sure why the fat is the first circle I close. I wonder if the healthy fats I’m eating count? It’s impossible to achieve my protein goal without really going over with the fats. I try to cook with a little to no (olive/avocado) oil at all. I also can’t reach my carbs goal and most of the time my ..read more

Today's workout at the gym was intense. I do not trust the calorie burn indicator on the watch and eat the same amount of calories (1600) no matter my physical exercise. However today I feel extra hungry, and I only have 392 calories left for dinner which is in about an hour or so. What advice do yall have? Should I eat more? Should I wait it out? I've had a few high protein snacks but nothing is satieting me. Also had an apple. last night I had to wake up in the middle of the night to finish some meal prep (had accidentally fallen asleep) and was hungry, so during that I had a date and a fou ..read more
