I have used MFP for 7 years, with varying intensity. When I use it seriously, it never fails. Looking back, I am not sure what knocks me off, unless it is extended travel with unusual food choices and a disrupted routine. I have never reached out to join the community but I'm hoping that an accountability group will help me stay with the program. I am 69 and finding that a slowing metabolism and joint issues that limit exercise choices are not a good combination for my healthy appetite for unhealthy treats!

I’ve had MFP app for years but have only used it for counting calories and I’ve seen my weight all over the place. I’m a 69 yr old female, with a heart condition and recovering from back surgery 2 months ago. Not very mobile, in pain and this side of the holidays I am at 195 lbs. I intend to lose 45. It’s my first time trying intermittent fasting and after only 3 days of 16-8 I can see a difference in my sleep and 2.5 lb.3
