1 Month at MFP

FitnessGeek

As of today, I've been using MFP for a month now and I have loved it. Both my boyfriend and myself have been logging everything religiously and exercising more.

We started at MFP with our focus not being only weight loss, but just to be all-around healthier. Neither of us are over weight, but we are both a couple of squishy marshmallow people. The goal was to tone, tighten, and control.

At the end of one month I have lost 8 lbs! Right on schedule for my 2lbs a week. My boyfriend has lost 5 lbs.

For the first time in 2 years I see a number lower than 155 on my scale. For the first time ever, I can fully touch my toes and almost lay my hands flat on the floor (thank you yoga!). I can also now do 7 plank style push-ups compared to 2.

I just wanted to thank MFP for being such an awesome website, and also to thank the community for being so supportive. I can't wait to see what happens after another month goes by. I am serious about changing my habits and becoming the healthiest and strongest I've ever been.

As soon as I reach my goal, I am heading out to buy a two-piece bathing suit which I have never had the guts to wear! :blushing:

Congratulations to you, and I have to second your Thank You to MFP and the people here. I too have been here for a month (in 5 days), and have seen great success. I have tried so many times before and have never lost 10 lbs, and I have done it here in a month. I feel totaly different about myself, and I feel like I can continue on my way to total happiness because of MFP.

Ditto, It's been 1 1/2 months since my first weigh in and I love it. I tell everyone who is interested in losing weight to consider this site. The people here are so supportive and friendly, its unbelieveable. I would like to think that people here are this nice in person.
