    I think my biggest hurdle is portion control! I'm a new mom and breastfeeding makes me SO hungry! All I want to do is eat. I started the C25K program and that's really helping to keep me moving.

    Hi just checking in :)
    Id like to let mfps know that my calorie burns are 300-400 max these days would like to increase that! But..something is better than nothing :) Also I eat 1550 cals and would be Hangry at anything below that :)

    there's no way to keep up with what's happening with 810 people, so while you may be getting lots of support, i don't see how you can be giving it. do you really post encouragement whenever any of those 810 people loses (or gains) weight, whenever they do a personal best workout or come in under their calorie goals? of course not, as that would be impossible.

    i keep my number of friends to 20 or less, and try and make them people i have stuff in common with - several of my MFP friends are fellow musicians, for example.

    Awesome for you :) I do what I do, that's all I can say :) if it doesn't work for you that's fine! I think I'm fairly interactive but everyone has different standards of what support levels they want....you're right...I can't "like" everything!

    Again, I want to say that I messed up on this thread! I am not a words smith clearly, lol, I didn't want people to feel "less than" bc they choose to have different kinds of encouragement or support. 0 mfp connections is fine, 5, 10, 20, etc! 200! I'm not knocking you at all :) for me I have more time at home right now and I like interacting with many :). I've also helped mfps find other mfps with similar goals and issues :)

    I don't have any mfps who are musicians though :) but I'm a huge supporter of bands in my city :). Good luck with your fitness goals! Keep bassing it up :) my first guitar was an El Degas lol
