    Hi all, I’m Doug. 28 (soon to be 29, Feb 17th) from Clayton, NC.

    Currently (1-30-12) I’ve been on MFP for over a month and am down 17lbs and loving it!

    I’m a high school teacher and completing a doctorate degree in Technology Education this semester. Yippee!!! I really just got sick and tired of being out of shape!!!

    I attend an awesome church, have two amazing sons that I spend every day with, and am passionate about learning in general.

    I haven’t dated since getting divorced so … yeah…. You know….

    Anyways, looking forward to talking with some of you!

    Hi. I'm Donna. I've been sober now for....Oh, never mind, wrong group!

    Anyway. I've been single again for almost 2 years. I'm older than a lot of you that post regularly but I belong here much more than sitting in a rocking chair crocheting some blanket or sweater.

    See you in the forums!

    Hi there, forum.

    I am also new here, sort of new to MPF, been on here about 3 weeks. I was brought over here from Reddit's /r/theketodiet sub, and I've been enjoying it thus far. It's nice to see people with similar goals.

    So hi, I'm Katie, I'm fairly awesome. 29, from Michigan, have some cats. The usual.

    Hi everyone. My name is David, I am 32. I have never been married and do not have any children. I am from FL. but live in southern MS. I am a full time student working on my B.S. in Computer Science with a minor in Homeland Security. I started MFP on 1/7/13 after a person I met at the gym told me about it. I really enjoy using the app and the website.
    My CW: 286
    1st GW: 275
    2nd GW: 250
    3rd GW: 225
    Final GW (for the time being): 200

    I set it at 200 because when I was in the Army and at my fittest that was what I weighed, but I am older now so will adjust as needed when I get to that point.

    I live in PA. I was on myfitnesspal before. I need to lose 20 lbs and tone up. I would love to find people who live in NEPA or the Southern TIer of NY to cheer each other on and possibly work out together.

    Hi Bev, I'm Kathy. I would be happy to support you and would appreciate your support in return. I'm in Ohio and continuing to improve my overall health and wellness. I've used MFP for a few years with success but seem to have lost traction this year. Feel free to friend me.

    I have really struggled since New Years to get back to eating healthy. Because we still have left overs from our party. I struggle with most foods anyway because i had my gallbladder removed back in October but it doesn't stop me from eating the "bad" food anyway.

    I was doing sooo well up until our party, now I can't get back on track. One day at a time I guess.
