Today, we’re featuring Katelyn Linder, who started her weight loss journey by setting her daily calorie goal to a very low number. After realizing her existing nutrition habits would be unsustainable, she downloaded MyFitnessPal and discovered a more long-term approach to nutrition.

NAME:金德尔
AGE:20
LOCATION:Lake Worth, FL
OCCUPATION:越野活动领导者
STARTING WEIGHT AND CURRENT WEIGHT:Starting weight: 215 pounds. Current weight: 140 pounds

WHEN DID YOU BEGIN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS/HEALTH JOURNEY?

I started in September of 2019 using LoseIt!. With that app, I lost 50 pounds; however, I learned that that app is extremely unhealthy. LoseIt! was limiting me to around 1,100 calories/day, and I was ending every day extremely hungry.

I started to use MyFitnessPal around March 2021. MFP gave me a goal of 1,500 calories, and I was still losing weight and never feeling hungry or uncomfortable. From March to now, I lost around 25 pounds in a more healthy way!

WHAT WAS THE MOTIVATION BEHIND YOUR DESIRE TO MAKE A POSITIVE CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE?

I was always feeling super upset with my weight and very unhealthy. I would cancel plans just because of the way I looked. I knew I needed to change my eating habits.

EXPLAIN YOUR LIFESTYLE BEFORE BEGINNING YOUR WEIGHT LOSS/HEALTH JOURNEY.

Before weight loss, I was often bullied and at one point had been told by a therapist that I was likely depressed. I never felt good about myself. I went to the gym at one point but didn’t change my diet so I did not see any change and stopped going.

I wasalways每当我感到无聊,强调,情绪等时吃零食。在等待送餐或煮熟的同时,我将自己完成一袋薯条和饼干。我一周多次吃快餐。在我开始节食之前,我可能在每日卡路里限制时翻了一番。我需要改变我与食物的关系。我每天都吃太多了。它不是健康的食物或只是大餐,它每天多次筹码或含糖食物。直到我每天几乎每一顿饭都非常完全或甚至痛苦地吃饱了。它开始看起来像成瘾。

TELL US ABOUT HOW YOU USED THE APP ALONG YOUR JOURNEY.

I loved every feature including the positive messages. I was able to recommend the app to many of my friends and my followers onTikTok.

WHAT FEATURES WERE/ARE YOUR FAVORITE?

动机消息和条形码扫描仪。

MyFitnessPal帮助您沿着您的旅程实现哪些课程/教育/实现?

I don’t need to limit myself as much as I thought I did! When using LoseIt!, I was limiting myself to around 1,100 calories a day. I would skip meals and wouldn’t let myself eat anything I truly enjoyed if it wasn’t low-calorie. Once I started MFP, I was able to incorporate more foods I enjoyed, just smaller portion sizes … and I had a larger amount of calories a day!

你沿途拿起的任何其他健康习惯?

I began going to the gym again.

你是否面临着任何挑战或挫折?

检疫让我想要零食!这对我来说真的很吓人,因为此时,我已经丢失了大约50磅,每天都在花在我家里锁在我的房子里,但很多有趣的小吃。我真的很担心我会回到我旧的饮食习惯。它实际上是大多数隔离区来回到我的饮食。一旦我再次忙着健身房,重新开放,我就可以回到我的饮食和健康的生活方式。

你是如何在整个旅程中保持动力的?

I just knew how good it felt to see my body shaping into my goal.

您是否仍然定期使用MyFitnesspal?

Every day!

WHAT IS YOUR LIFESTYLE LIKE TODAY?

I try to go to the gym around 3-5 days a week. I fast (16-hour fast/8-hour feed) and I use MyFitnessPal regularly.

DID YOU REACH YOUR WEIGHT LOSS/HEALTH GOAL?

我的原始目标是150磅。然后我将它移到135磅,但决定可能太小(我5'8')。我目前处于140磅,这是我想留下的地方。

如果您可以向刚刚开始旅程的人提供建议,那将是什么?
