Starting!

Hi all
I've been a member here since 2010 but have never done the hard work to lose weight. I am 5'9 and 205. I started yesterday and this morning, I've also decided I will participate in the forums once a day! I think this will help keep me involved in the process. So cheers to my first post of this journey and grateful to all of you who post - love reading everything!

Congrats to committing to your goals! I've found MFP incredibly helpful in losing the weight I needed to get rid of. Here's to your continued success!

Good luck. I just started today 5 ft 3 and 148 lbs. Used to be 116 lbs. Goal is 120 and to gain some muscle. What is your goal

Consistency is key! You got this.

I agree and I too find forum participation goes along way to staying engaged.

I am mindful though and try to take time away from the forums as I don't want it to become a crutch. I need to be able to maintain this on my own (which is also why I've chosen not to friend anyone on this app).
