    That's good to hear ladies
    Thankyou for replying
  • I am on here as was shown an Instagram page of a girl who was super inspirational from MFP - so figured the more invested I get the greater my chance at success

    Close to 20kg now, MFP is a good "tool" willpower and motivation is what has kept me going strong

    I've lost 26kg's so far since joining MFP, it's by no means the sole reason for my loss though but it's good to be able to plan my days food and know how many calories I am consuming

    Agree with the above, it's a good tool to help with weight loss - nutrition is king, exercise helps and depending what your goals are, MFP will help you get there. I've lost 30kg and working on maintaining it.

    I'm 13kg down (so far!) since November last year. I think my ability to judge a proper portion size, as well as the realization of the sheer amount of food I was eating would never have happened if it wasn't for MFP.

    I don't think I've lost much but makes the calorie count so much easier and I want to make healthier choices now.

    I've been using it for the last 4 years and have lost almost 40kgs. I haven't logged continuously, but try to keep a rough idea of my calories most of the time and I'm slowly chipping away at the last 5kg. It's MFP that is the main reason for my success, it works!

    20kg or so lost with help from MFP. I'm pretty much in maintenance now, so log for a few weeks every few months if I seem to be sliding.

    I've lost about 3kg since I switched from Weight Watchers to MFP in October. It's not much but, I'm at the pointy end of the weight loss journey and the last 5 kgs or so are proving hard to shift. Personally I'm liking the level of detail that MFP provides much more than the Weight Watchers App and that I'm not spending $35 a month to track my food.

    I competing in an INBA fitness comp in May and have been using MFP to track my macros. I'm not going on weight but have lost 20ml/3% body fat in just under 3 weeks using MFP to keep track of my food and macros.

    I lost 25kgs last year.. I was 1kg off my bmi and the I pushed too hard and busted my leg with an Achilles injury. I'm now back on MFP and wish to lose 15kgs in 12 weeks. With MFP and exercise every second day I think I can pull it off..
    I'm on everyday. All welcome to add me..
    Good luck to you all. :D

    Haven't seen this old tried til it was revived now.
    I've been on MFP for 10 months - shed 38kg in that time.

    Logging everything was the secret and learning my macros. I was like an obsessed woman at first having great losses, and less so in last 2 months and only 5kg in that time. So for me, logging everything was the trick to big losses every week. I'm now ramping it up to do the same again for the next stage.

    I've been using MFP for just over a year. Between June and January I lost 35kg and over 40kg of fat using MFP and exercise tracking (Map My Fitness and later Garmin Connect).

    It does help to keep you honest.

    I'm now using it to plan out my meals for the day in advance, then tweaking the amount I'm eating, or what I'm eating, according to how much exercise I actually am getting that day. I'm now gaining strength and muscle, and am having to work the other way and ensure I'm actually hitting my calorie goals for the day, rather than making sure I don't exceed them.

    I think I should update this post - I'm now down 55kgs (with a login streak of 570 days), and although I'm still 20kg off goal, I'm eating at maintenance whilst I'm training for my first half marathon in September. Sometimes my bottomless pit of a stomach still gets me, but I'd say MFP is all in all a success :)
