in Getting Started
Hello all, Day 1 here with some very big goals. I've been on MFP for a few years and have really enjoyed it. But after losing and gaining, Atkins, low-carb, and ultimate regaining it's time to start a new Day 1.

Looking for new friends, I'm from Canada and I love how MFP is a great place to meet people from all over north America.

Feel free to add! :smiley:

    Day 2..... here we go! Totally doable. I have a tall bottle of water on my desk, and a full belly with decent breakfast and I've had my morning coffee.

    Are there any programs you all are following? Or just eating better in general? For me, I have found the best way to stay encouraged about nutrition is to not just focus on what I eat, and how much exercise but practicing self care.

    After many years of putting myself last after my children, work, family, just life... I've found I never put care into myself. So here's me, taking care of myself. :smiley:

    Thanks for the adds!

    Day 1 for the umpeenth time. I am coming away from Weight Watchers, so this is kinda new. I have never been a great tracker, but am willing to learn. I am pretty close to goal, but have been gaining steadily for the last few weeks and can feel that slippery slope in my hands. I am in Italy

    Lanie- I am still following, at least for now, weight watchers, but an older version. It is really what I asm used to, and I want to desperately try sticking closer to plan than actually count calories ( which puts me immediately into panic mode!

    Hi Everyone, I'm in the UK and its day 1 today for me, first goal is to pack in smoking - did a hiit class the other day for the first time, thoroughly enjoyed it and think i did ok even if a bit uncoordinated (and still sore) but can't keep that up and still smoke, so here's hoping I can kick it, stick with the exercise and eat healthily so i can start feeling and looking healthier. Good luck to everyone on their journey to better things

    Day 1 was on Friday for me. I lost 25lbs. on WW about 6 years ago, gained some back, but can't get into the new WW program. In addition, I had some health issues come up and I need to know the macronutrients. So, here I am!

    Thanks for all the adds! SO happy! I am fairly active on MFP - logging in daily basically to update my status and keep accountable. It's the first day of week 2 for me and 3.4 lbs. down :smiley:

    Please feel free to add, and really, don't be shy. If I've learned anything through MFP it's the importance of getting out of your own little corner of the universe and learning through others, and in turn learning more about yourself.

    Thanks all! <3
