Hi, My name is Caitlin,

I've been using MFP for a couple weeks now and I'm loving it. I weigh a little under 200 right now, and hoping to get to a nice 130 eventually. I can't really afford to get a gym membership, so I've been working hard getting up and exercising before breakfast, eating well and just being honest about what I do eat. It would be awesome to have lots of friends and support on my weight loss journey, and I'd love to be there for you too!

    I am with you! I can't afford the gym nor do I have the time to go to the gym, so I exercise at home. It's difficult because not all the tools of the gym are available but it is doable! Good luck!

    Welcome! I am in the same situation. Definitely can't afford the gym membership, so I've been trying to just exercise on my own, even if it's just a walk!! Feel free to add me :)

    Good Luck Caitlin,
    I have just started using it as well and I am really enjoying it. The only problem Im having is that Im eating the same meals or types of meals. My children are all grown so I havent really been cooking large meals. I wish you success.
