Hello everyone! My name is Alicia, and I am BACK to MFP! I lost 40 lbs two years ago using MFP as my tool, but unfortunately fell off the wagon and gained it all plus a lot back. I am kicking my butt into shape and need some motivators to help keep me in line. If anyone wants to be my friend add me we can kick butt together!

  • Hi Alicia we are here to motivate you, glad you came back. This journey has to be about a lifestyle change and not a "diet". After 25 years of trying everything and nothing working for me and putting weight back on I decided it was about lifestyle change, proper nutrition, and planned workouts with maximum results! I loss 118 lbs and maintaining it because of support I get from being a fitness coach! Friend request me :) Heidi
  • Wow! You're such an inspiration! My main thing is nutrition. I just had orientation for my fitness plan, and that's bought and paid for so I am DEFINTIELY going to be going to that. But nutrition is something I have to do on my own, and that will be the struggle. Hopefully I can figure out a meal plan that works well for me. Thanks for the post! I'm adding you!

    Hi Alicia, I lost a total of 29 lbs, by starting last year doing this app, but fell off the band wagon too, so today I am back on and plan on losing 15 more lbs. I started doing the Total Lean Shakes today by GNC, I am hoping this will jump start my weigh loss again! Good luck on your journey!!
  • Cool! I am adding you as well! Let me know how you like the protein shakes, my fitness coach is big on those, and I haven't tried any yet.
  • Hi Alicia! I've been in your same boat more than once... I love MFP ~ its been a big help! :smile:
