Starting Again...
Hi There, I'm new to myfitnesspal, but not to the roller coaster of weight loss. I used to be 208lbs & I'm 5"1. I got down to 145, which I feel is the perfect weight for me. However I have blossomed into a 175 pound 'whole lotta woman' again. So here I go again, with trying to get fit, logging my foods & trying to jog down…

Hello All
Not new here. Left for a while and now I'm back on. A little about me...I've used this site for a couple years and have had great success. I lost 50 lbs last year (June 1- May 31) and have lost 12 so far this year. My goal is to drop another 20-25 lbs. I've used P90X among other things. Love my gym time though. From Kansas…

I don't want to be a fat dad
Hello All! My wife is pregnant and I do NOT want to be a fat dad. Over the past few years, I have really let myself go downhill health-wise. It doesn't help that I work for a gaming company that supplies us with as much soda as we want. I have vowed to lose the weight and become as healthy as I can. Anyone in the Cambridge…

New to FitnessPal
Hi all! My name is Jillian and I am from CT. I have been on the weight loss rollercoaster for about 4 years now, battling the same 25 lbs. I've tried tracking activity and foods with other programs but I am at a plateau now. I am hoping that by changing the way I look at nutrition I can kick up my weight loss. 8 lbs to go!…

Day 1
I am really glad I found this site. Looks like a great set of tools. I've used the WW tools before, and this looks pretty similar. I'll have to learn talking Calories instead of Points, but that shouldn't be a problem. I just saw the post entitled "Fat Dad" a few before this one, and almost replied to that, but I wanted to…

Hi!
Just started using this site over the weekend. I want to drop 20 lbs. I'm looking forward to meeting some folks to stay the course when I hit rough patches and lose motivation! My initial question is: How do keep on keeping on and not let the newness of a new routine, system, etc., fade away (aka New Year's Resolutions!)…

Hi! New to My Fitness Pal
Hello everyone, I am new here. I decided to join because I just got a new job, September 1st and I have gained 8.5 lbs since then!!! It is an office job, and all I do for 8 hours is sit at a desk! I found out that I only need to be eating between 700-1,200 calories a day, because of my inactive life now, and I am used to…

Newbie me....
Hi! Call me Dot, please. About three decades ago, after the murder of my sister, I put myself on a diet and lost almost 40 pounds. Going from 155 pds to 117 made a remarkable difference in not only my appearance but my life as well. I kept that weight off, stabling out at 125 -127 pds, for about four years....until the…

Good Day Fellow Weight Reducers. :) I saw this app on my droid and thought I would give it a try. I was using calorie king but it cost like 80 bucks a year and this is free and much easier to use on my mobile and computer. I am looking forward to blogging myself to a healthier weight and feel much younger again. This is…

In college taking swimming
I'm in college taking a swimming class to get in shape, and lose weight. I had a really bad cramp and went to see my doctor. He told me about this site and so far so good. It's FREEEE!

Weight Loss is Hard!
Just recently joined. I was up late one night searching apps on my phone which lead me here. I had another one before this but it wasn't connected to a website which I like. It makes me actually remember to log my food since i'm at a computer most of my day. I have several reasons for getting serious about it this time. It…
