Hi I'm back using this app. I didn't get good results last time in 2018, so I'm reaching out for friends this time. I've learned so much about intermittent fasting and it's curing my joint pain!

Can I ask why you both have more than one GW? It stands for Goal Weight, right?

xxflab2fiitmamaxx

Lileemac. For me it’s small steps rather then big leaps will get me further. And accomplishing the little wins will build my confidence

Hello I’m a stay at home mama to three. I have a three year old, 2 year old, and a 7 month old. I used MFP after I had my second baby and lost 50 pounds but I’m starting over since gaining the weight back during pregnancy. I’ve started my weight loss journey in April so that I can lose this weight for good and finally feel good in my own skin again. I’m breastfeeding so I try to stick to 1800 calories to keep up with my supply.
I’m 27 and 5’4

Hey mama- let's be friends!

I was super conscious about what I ate and was active on MFP right after I had gastric bypass. I lost 136 lbs, met my soon to be husband, and now I've gained 70 lbs back 😥.

I'm getting married in July and would like to be close to 1st goal, have a son who is 6 yrs old, and work remotely for the last year which has been terrible for physical activity.

Hi! I’d like to be friends. 🙂 I also had weight loss surgery (gastric sleeve) and lost 190. I kept it off for 3 years by eating right and exercising. Then I got a concussion and gained quite a bit due to lack of impulse control with food for 3 years. Uffda! I’ve been trying to do WW but I think counting calories might be a better choice right now. On a positive note, I’ve kept off 109 pounds.

I am also looking for friends to embark on a weight loss journey with.
I was losing weight last year before the pandemic started by going to the gym every day. I’ve gained 30 lbs since the pandemic started. I am committed to making a lifestyle change and getting healthy. My main reason for wanting to lose weight is for my health as I have recently been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I want to be around to meet my future grand babies one day. My kids are 25, 20 and 17.

antonia_yes

Hey - I also used MFP a few years ago but stopped.
I am 29, 5'6, SW 199 and UGW 140-150 I think? Like you I have other goals along the way My first one is to get to the 'overweight' category not 'obese' - I have about 7lb to go to this!

VikaAfanas36

Hello, I am also looking for friends. I have been on MFP before but lost my motivation. Here I am again, starting all over again with 42kg to lose. My weight at the moment is 111kg and my height is 159cm.

Hey, I would like to join up too, former WW and decided to give MFP a try again.

Goal: I dunno. Something less than this.

I’ve also had great luck on MFP in the past and am working to get back into it! Please feel free to send me a request to anyone who wants a friend to support and push them. Hope you can return the favor!

I need accountability in the way of friends!!

Had a hip replacement 3 years ago due to hip dysplasia and want to lose at least 62lbs to delay having the other one done for as long as possible.

JohnBarth

Doubtful. Anyone else in their late 40s who lost their spouse unexpectedly earlier this year and trying to find any way forward? Sorry to be debbie downer, but I need friends that don't exist.

Guess I'll go hiking. It's all that seems to keep me sane.

aimeeernest

Hoping to find some people in similar shoes to follow! I'd like to have some friends in here.

A little about me

I’m 32, married, homeschooling mother of three, aged between middle school and preschool.

Height: 5’8.5"
SW: 184lbs (1/15/2021)
CW: 146lbs (Today)
UGW: 120lbs (Maybe)

I don't have a lot of free time to myself so my weight loss journey has been based primarily on Calories in vs. Calories out, my trusty Samsung Gear watch (which does not inflate calories burned like other brands), food choice, eliminating night eating, and aiming for 10k steps per day.
