    Hello, I am from Colorado. So nice to meet all of you :) Hope I can help motivate. I am 50 this year, I haven't been feeling the greatest. I have an autoimmune disease and I want to stay as healthy as I can. I do a low carb diet, and am serious about reducing the inflammation in my body.

    Very nice to meet you too! My name is Crystal. I have a couple of family members who have autoimmune disease also, I know its can be tough. I know we all can motivate each other! 😊

    Hi ladies. I've been on here for a while now. I like to offer encouragement to newbies and your group caught my attention.

    I've had some success with the programme, so maybe I can be of assistance to y'all.
    I have lost 53lbs and have about 15lbs still to lose.

    I live in Northern Ireland, and am 72 years young.

    Did you know that can click the little star to the right of the page title to add it to your list of groups and make it easier to find?

    Also, if you friend each other you can communicate easier. And if you write a little about yourself when you send a friend request, you are more likely to get accepted.

    Hello and nice to meet you TerriRichardson112! Wow all the way from Ireland! Awesome. And congrats on your weight loss so far!
    Also thanks for the info, I just found out about the star thing, but still have lots to learn about MFP.

    I was in the middle of sending friend requests to you ladies earlier but I got side tracked and cant remember who I sent a request to. If I'm not already on your friends list, feel free to add me :)

    Hi I am from Vancouver, WA I am doing MFP along with a TOPS group. I just started TOPS a week and 1/2 ago and have my second weigh in this coming Monday. Using the food tracker here is easier than keeping a paper food log for TOPS. I like that you can see the breakdown of what you or eating.

    Good morning, ladies.
    If you type a username after the 'at' symbol, your comment will appear in the notifications of that user. It makes conversation quicker. It also means that you can comment on multiple posts without taking up as much space on the thread.

    @cdavisdeva Hi Crystal. 30-40lbs a good goal. I find breaking it down into small chunks helps. I have daily/weekly/monthly goals, and use 'just for today' and 'just at this moment' as motivation to be healthier and fitter.
    @Icy_stewart Hi Lucy. I'm in Bangor just across the Irish Sea from you. We can wave at each other.
    @meepmya Hi Michelle. Nice to have another representative from UK. All we need now is someone from Wales and we have a full house. It's good to have people from the same time zone in the group. That's a great loss. It gets more difficult as you get closer to your goal.

    @cdavisdeva That's what we call a NSV! Lol! (Non Scale Victory)
    @AnitaKundu Hi Anita. Welcome to MFP.
    @grayhabors Hi G. TOPS is a good system, but the food tracker here makes things so much simpler. And you can use the meal/recipe builder to make it easier to enter your home cooked meals.
    @tonyasue138 Hi Tonya. Support is the name of the game. It certainly helped me through this process.
