Looking for friends on here with similar health goals

I'm 29 now. A…

Anyone here?
Just saw this group, which I feel is perfect for me! I’ve been a WW member since 2017 and before, & just can’t get into it at this time in my life. Back in 2006 I made Lifetime, but I needed a change. So I quit WW recently and have started back with MFP. I see that 2016 was the last post - does anyone still interact here?
