First week at Myfitnesspal
Hi, just wanted to introduce myself. I have 16 pounds to lose. A friend told me about this site and holy it really makes you pay attention to what you are doing. Definitely has motivated me in the exercise as well as you can eat a little more if you add it. Great site and good luck to everyone!!!

Hi, New here!
I previously belonged to another site similar to this one, but I felt that it was at times, difficult and confusing to navigate. I think this site is great so far...so much easier!!! I'm looking forward to coming here each day and becoming part of a group who will help me achieve my 44lb weight loss goal. I have four kids…

starting over (again!)
Hi, I'm new and starting yet another diet. I'm having a struggle getting started. I know what I need to do, but not too motivated.

New today!
:smile: I am starting today. I think counting my calories is going to be the hardest thing for me.

How awesome is this?!
I'm Mylo. I'm new to this site, so I thought I'd post a quick hello to everyone who's already on it. This is a really kewl website; I like all the little features on it. :smile: I'd like to lose at least another 18 pounds and get to at least the maximum I should be for a healthy weight (169 lbs) If I lose a little more,…

Getting started
Like many people, I spend more calories complaining about my weight gain than actually modifying my behavior. This week I'm going to try something different. I'm hoping that this program will help keep me accountable. I think the counters really help. One of my first goals is to drink 5X as much water as diet coke. So far…

For Real??
:heart: Just joined about two weeks (+/-) ago, and started exercising as well. Is it possible for me to have lost 3 lbs already? It doesn't seem right. I think I understand how my allowed calories increase if I exercise, but if I don't always have the appetite to eat them, am I going to do damage? What if I take…

My first week
Oddly enough, I had been using the calorie counter on MFP for a few days and keeping a diary of my own in an excel file before I got smart enough to actually register. Once I actually took a minute to look at the rest of the site I realized the food diary here is much cooler than mine was. Lol. I have lost four pounds…

This is incredible
I am new to this site, but not to weight loss. About 3 years ago I lost 115 pounds, but over time about 30 pounds have crept back on. This site was just what I needed to kick start me into getting the weight back off and getting myself healthy again. I felt so much better when I weighed less and I want to get there again.…

Help me become Flabuless!!!
I think I had an A-HA moment on Thursday. I dropped a knife on my foot accidentally which required stitches, just 3, but painful nonetheless. When in the triage area they took my BP and it was 171/92. I thought, Dear God, don't let me stroke out in front of my 7 year old son. The nurse said, "oh, you're just nervous". I…

Donna
I just found and started logging info into this site early this week. I am starting to track my eating habits and to get an idea of things that I need to change. They say keeping a food diary is a great start, so here I am. I am guessing this is a large community, but I still hope to get to know some of you, having someone…

ouch ouch my muscles ache - I'm sore!
I have had three visits with my personal trainer and can barely move today - it hurts to even smile or scratch myself! and I have another session tonight. No one told me trying to lose weight would be this hard! You guys are such a nice group that I had to share my pain! The sad part is.... the scales still tell me 196…
