DUH! I had no idea

MellieR

that there was a whole community behind My Fitness Pal. What's worse, is I found out via a Google search for Zumba weight-loss results. I've been using MyFitnessPal on my phone for almost two months to log my food and never felt the need to go to the online site. Now, I wish I had done it sooner! I just thought it was kinda creepy how it had all the "status" updates that no one was ever going to see. Ha!

So, looking for a little support. Now that I've committed to losing weight, I'm frustrated by the slow results. I'm sure that someday I will look back and laugh at myself for being so impatient. In the meantime, thanks for sharing your stories here.

WELCOME TO MFP!!! The support is EXTRA helpful!! I was using MFP without the community support and felt all alone BUT once I went public and started to see how many other people were struggling just like I was and all of the success stories...I was INSPIRED TO WORK HARDER!!

i was using it for 2weeks or so before i knew there was a site; i forgot my phone at home one day and needed to log food so i went online at work (dont have internet at home).

Welcome......

I joined a couple of weeks ago..... I was just looking for a calorie counter app for my phone and stumbled on the website too .... I have been completely blown away by the support here..... very motivating..... I have never even done the social networking thing (well I do have facebook but my son tells me I am a facebook stalker because I only look and don't post).... but I am actually looking forward to seeing what my "friends' have written each day..... join a group or two and get yourself some friends in similar circumstances and you'll love it!

Thanks for the support! Congratulations, as well. I found the community right when I needed it.
