Hello, my names Jesica. I just started today & am going it alone.. I've tried weight loss products & work out guides before but nothing stuck. I find it easier for me to stick with if i have some emotional support. :) add me if you like! & if anyone has any healthy recipes or workout ideas please by all means share them :) thanks so much!

    You made a great first step.....although your screen name seems to makes light of the coming Zombie Apocalypse (tm)! It's really gonna happen! :wink:

    Don't know what you have going for exercise, but minimum 1/2 hr brisk walk is easy to keep up with. And start with a lightweight kettlebell (avoid the adjustable kind) for the toning and calorie burn. Its looks easy, but....

    And after a few months of that, get into mixed martial arts, 'cause the Zombies are comin'....(!)

    Hi! I'm also new to MFP and so far this has been an AMAZING tool!! It makes me WANT to make good choices, workout and eat well...something about logging everything into my diary is great motivation!! The support from my MFP friends really does a lot to boost my confidence. Sending a friend request now :)

    No, you are certainly not alone ! Just keep logging all you eat and exercise. Remember to check the RDI's after you complete a day so you can also see which you need to target !.
    I didn't think I ate too much sugar but every day it is over ! - also I don't enough calcium - which is important !!!
    I also bought a stand for my bicycle so not even rain is an excuse now to not exericse some of those extra calories off

    Hello, I am fairly new to this to. I recently auditioned for season 14 of The Biggest Loser and did not receive a call back....I told myself I did not need a tv show to help me lose weight. I like you have no real support system but since I have started this journey I have made lots of friends and although I am struggling with my food addiction I feel like I am doing much better! I never have been able to stick to much of anything except eating and now my body don't know what to think! lol.........feel free any of you to add me!.

    Oh and ZOMBIE....my 18 year old daughter would love your id!!!!!

    Hi zombie...I am also trying to loose weight, especially with my wedding coming up in January. I am really hoping MFP will help me loose some weight. I've always had troubles with my weight, and now I want to commit and have a healthier lifestyle for my future.
    Right now I am doing Turbo Fire workout, and it's going ok so far but not as good as I want it to. I am having trouble getting motivated and keeping a clean nutrition plan, if anyone as any advice, don't hesitate to share...

    Please feel free to add me, I need all the support I can get :)

    Thanks
