We are a long-term group who support each other through life and the scale. Please join us in February for an accountability month! Most people utilize the thread for weigh-ins, you may weigh in daily or weekly; do what works for you. If your goals are to drink more water, gain muscle, reduce fat, increase strength or cardio, etc, feel free to join us and track those items as well.

We are an encouraging group challenging and supporting each other's efforts to stay on track with our personal goals. You don't have to gain weight during the holiday season; we can help you stay motivated.


Bookmark the thread and feel free to join in at any time during the month for any purpose. The thread will bring you directly to the last page you posted on, to make it easier.

All are welcome!

    Hi I'm not sure how to do this.

    I don't know how to bookmark 😔.

    I have been in MFP since July 2016 and only recently discovered the community, how to have friends etc.

    I'm 64 yo and live in Queensland Australia, if anyone has the patience to show me the way, and if this group is operating? ...
    I would like to join please.

    TIA Pat

    Dear @PatDMuddle,
    I use the app on my phone, but if it's of use to you, to bookmark you have to scroll to the top of the page and to the right of the title you'll see the blue outline of a bookmark. Click on it so it turns blue and you are done!
    To find your bookmarks, scroll to the top, press the drop down menu (three horizontal lines on the top left side) and scroll down to "Community", then scroll all the way down on that page to the section called "Quick Links."
    I hope this helps!

    2/02 - 140.0 (140.0) - nausea has been terrible over the past few days. Yesterday I ate two sleeves of crackers, toast, soup, anything I could think of to calm my stomach. All it did was raise the scales. Woke up this morning churning again. Ready for this to be over!

    Thursday Feb 03 - 137.8 - Burned a gazillion calories yesterday and had little time for food so calories were low. I did eat late though when I finally got home from work, so perhaps that raised the number a bit.

    @BittersweetVita

    You said:
    02/03: 194.2 - surprised by this number as I was way over cals.

    I find that it sometimes takes several days in either direction.

    Aaargh, was hoping the fluctation would be in my favour but apparently not. Will just stay the course and see what tomorrow brings. May need to adjust calorie intake and/or make sure I'm recording it accurately.
