One week in, lost 2 lbs. :)
First, it's actually 2.5, but the site rounds for you...ha! Anyway, I'm going to try the "talking to others helps" theory this time. Quickly, I've been "on a diet" since I was in....um, 8th grade. Jesus, that sounds sad. Anyway, I'm now 41 and like I'm guessing most people here, it's something I've never been able to…

Time to put myself first!
So glad to find this site (thanks to my sister-in-law)! I've struggled over the last 10 years losing and gaining weight. What I want now, at age 56, is to lose the 60 to 70 lbs. and then maintain. I'm so tired of losing and then gaining. I know what works for me but just have not had the motivation. I let the stress of my…

I'm new to this.
I just 'signed up' on this website today. I'm not really entirely sure how to use it or the exact benefits of it but it seems fabulous. I've been looking at the success stories and it's a bit inspiring because lately I haven't had much motivation. I actually started my weight loss journey(well, for the 50th time in my…

Hello, winners!
I fought with the word Losers, so I'll keep it cheerful. I am 52, consider myself an athlete (NOT) and eat a lot, where I work during the day. I'm new to myfitness, but I like it. I had used another site before, but it wasn't as simple as this one. However, I'd like to know where do people keep track of the amount of fiber…

Introducing myself so I won't quit :)
Hi everyone, Don't you hate it when your metabolism screeches to a sudden halt? In the past, I was very active and stayed slim no matter how much I ate. Somehow, I've managed to put on about 50 lbs in 2 years, and I feel terrible both physically and emotionally. Recently, I attended a family reunion, took a good look at my…

New Mommy and New to Site!
Hi there! I just thought I'd introduce myself as a way of saying "I'm doing this!" I'm a new mommy to the cutest 10 week old little boy (ok, ok, I know I'm biased :) But one thing that's not new to me is weight loss. I've had an up and down journey with food and my weight. At my wedding 3 years ago, I was at the lowest…

I train strongman events and plan to compete in a lower weight class by next summer. I'm not in to conventional workouts, I really enjoy atlas stones, sledgehammer work, tire flipping and sled pulling.…

Looking for Community
Dear Ladies, I am newly 65 and lost my husband this time last year. I'm also recently retired. The 3 months spent living in the hospital room with my husband, combined with continuing deep feelings of loss since then, have changed a very active & enjoyable life to a more disinterested, sedentary one, one that I know…

Team Work!
Hi, My name is Rhonda and I am so excited about this website. I am a BIG believer in fitness. Fitness is also a great way to lower anxiety, depression, and help to manage stress in our daily lives. Some of us need a way to track our daily progress. Good luck!

Newbie
Monday I'm starting a competition with my boss on eliminating sugar from our diets. I need a way to track my sugar consumption at home and on the run. The fact that this app had an online support system will hopefully help me to get better control of the foods I eat.
