Hey everyone. I'm a 23 year old of the female variety. Lost about 47 pounds over the past 3 or 4 years without actually trying too hard. A mixture of getting my heart broken and losing a bit of my puppy fat is what did it I think. I was 161 lbs when I joined MFP but my weight has been going up and down by about ten lbs the past month.

I've decided that I'm going to take this losing weight thing seriously now and I'm very very determined There's more info about me in my signature.

On a side note, does anybody know how to change the start weight I entered when I initially joined MFP? Because I've gained weight since then and want it to be accurate Thanks!

I look forward following all your weight loss journeys too

Hello! I just had to change my weight to cuz i have gained about 10lbs since i started on here (i lost 20 previously)...so bummed. You can adjust that info by going to settings up by where you can logout of mfp....and it will give you a list...i think it is under edit diet/exercise profile (or something of that nature)

Don't be too bummed. Tomorrow is a new a day and a fresh start!!! Just make sure you log all of your food, because sometimes seeing it in black and white you will see that you are slipping and can turn it around. Best of luck!!!!

Thanks everyone! I've been a bit of a yo-yoer with my weight. Lost about 20 pounds when I was a teenager but put it all back on during my final year of secondary school. Slowly got down to my current weight. I don't feel 'fat' anymore but I do feel chubby so every pound I lose is a bonus to me
