Hi! I am so happy with my group of mfps!! I post every day and have given and received fabulous support...I don't post all that often in the community but if you're new or early in your fitness transformation adventure then I could be a great connection for you! Please post a short note on goals and/or biggest struggle!

    @queenliz99 I guess you're too low quality and incompatible.

    820?? I was excited when I hit 10.

    My goals are to get my eating under control because I plan to have a few more decades of doing it and don't want to spend the whole time yo-yo dieting or getting down on myself. But I have to figure out how to do that and still eat dessert because life isn't worth living without dessert ;)

    I would like to improve my stamina and endurance to go on longer and more exciting hikes with my husband and puppy. I would also love to improve my bike riding, but more exciting bike rides with my husband mean imminent fear of death in my opinion. He thinks I'm just a weenie.

    My biggest struggles are laziness...and cake. I also have a few minor medical issues some of which improve with exercise and some get worse. Not sure yet how weight affects them.

    Odd. When I get above 200 active friends, I feel like I need fewer (and used to take steps to rectify this problem...back when I was more involved in the MFP community before they fundamentally changed this site). At a certain number, it's unrealistic to connect and interact with too many friends at anything more than a superficial/speaker level.

    820 friends. 77 forum posts.

    One of us is apparently doing this entirely backwards.

    Apparently not ;) Having me as a friend makes your day, I just know it.

    This made me giggle. Mainly because Liz is awesome and I know you're yanking her chain.

    I think too many friends can be a challenge to keep up with. I like my current list, but I delete inactive people (mostly, there are some I would like to see return). I add occasionally, but not often.

    I like to keep my FL under 50. Realistically - how do you keep in touch with over 800 'Friends' on a consistent basis?!
