in Getting Started
Hello all,

I am an emotional stress eater. Canadian. 54. I need to start putting myself first in multiple ways.

I tried this app many years ago, prior to UnderArmour buying it out. Had success at that time. The groups and communities helped.

I like posting motivational quotes and stuff. I don’t see that as an option anymore.

I still have one kiddo at home with me. My plate is full. Either way - I love animals, humour, nature etc. I struggle with anxiety etc… but I am determined to get back on track.

Need to drop around 40+ pounds.

If you can relate please add me as a friend.

Cheers!! 🥂

    Hello, I'm a fellow Canadian and am 58! I lost 30 pounds using MFP about 12 years ago but have slowly gained it back and more. I'm not an emotional or stress eaters but night snacking and sugar are my issues. Cheers to getting this done!

    Amen to all of that! Stress eating, putting ourselves and our health first.....I get it! Stick to it and let's make 2025 the year! I have more than that to lose and would love to try a GLP-1, but they are so expensive...so I will try cutting calories and drinking a ton of water (which is NOT my favorite) and see where I can go with that! Keep in touch!!
