Hello Everyone!
I have been using mfp for about 3 weeks now with good success, and I finally thought it was about time I stopped by the boards to say hello so, "Hello!" I know, this post was weak for a intro post, but I am just not good at this kind of stuff.

NEW TO MFP! I'm so excited!!
I joined MFP about a week and a half ago. I had a doctors appointment and learned that I had high blood pressure. Instead of putting me on medication right away my doctor reccomened that I diet and exercise and try and bring my blood pressure down naturally. I agreed fully. I've never been the type to pay too much…

Not-so-new
I've been using myfitnesspal.com for a few weeks now, but this is my first time on the message boards. I only lost 0.2 pounds this week, but it feels like success because I was on vacation and ate every meal out and the cook at the B & B where we stayed was fantastic. I used some of the things I've learned on this site…

Texan Newbie
I just started less than a week ago and am so happy for this tool to get my discipline back. I'm down 4.5 lbs and feeling much better. I'm traveling to Cyprus and will be on planes for over 13 or so hours and wonder if this app will work if my IPhone is off-line. Thanks

Weights or cardio first?
I am possibly doing my own routine tonight instead of a class. Does anyone know if it matters if doing weights (either free weights or machines, not sure which I will do yet) or cardio is better, or does it not matter?

MFP take two. I can do it this time!
This is my second attempt at MFP. The first time i had no internet at home and it made it very difficult to keep a daily account of my progress, or lack of progress. I just had internet installed this week and here I am again giving it a go. I have lots a little weight since my last attempt, only about 5 ish lbs. I really…

Lets Start This Again
Hello everyone!!! I started MFP back in April and his really well on it and lost like 20 pounds in 2 months. Then I fell off the wagon. I started to slip back into my old ways of easting fast food too often, drinking soda every day, and not exercising like I should be. I wasn’t happy with myself but not upset enough to do…

Hello
I just joined this site. It's pretty awesome! I love all of the different things you can do. So far, I just wish the food search had more in its database. Or maybe when adding quick caleries be able to name it and add carb/protein and fat if known. I've been trying to loose weight for a long time now, sugar is mine enemy!…

I guess I should have expected it with the way my wt has gone out of control. I see many here on this site who are very positive and I need all I can get of that type of help.…
