    If anyone is into photography I highly recommend doing a NYC city photo tour. I did an afternoon and night tour last week and managed to increase my step count quite a bit. I track how many steps I take with my fitbit tracker. Great little device btw.

    The company I used for the photo tour is called citifari. Nice guys and very knowledgable.

    Hi, I'm Jennifer (Jeni) from west-central Vermont, Rutland to be exact. I've lived here for 56 years and love it, although sometimes I tink it's really boring. The weekend of August 11-12, though, will be an event called "Art in the Park" where many artisans will be showing and selling their crafts. It's a wonderful event and a great opportunity to buy Christmas gifts and/or items for yourself. I always look forward to this weekend!

    I am in Northeast MA, Merrimack Valley area. I am looking to lose about 40 to 50 lbs. Anyone with any tips, tricks or good ideas on how to do this safely and effectively, please msg me. I go to the local gym about 3 days a week fro cardio and a little weigh lifting. I also visit with a personal trainer 1 day a week. I have been stuck at my current weight with little up/down spikes here or there. I just can not seem to get the weight off and stay off. I would like to do this weight lose for my overall health and well being.

    I am new to this idea of involving others (strangers) in my attempt to lose some weight.

    and oh yeah, HI! ;-)

    I am Courtnie, 25, from South Shore Mass! I love living by the beach and close enough to Boston :)
    I would like to loose 35 more pounds and be at 180. After that I will decide what my next goal will be! I've recently become obsessed with mfp and losing weight the healthy way! I work M-F 8-5pm so I always try to get at least a half hour of exercise after work every day. I'm not an exercise junkie which is why I don't do more than that.

    If anyone thinks they have similar goals please feel free to add! It's nice seeing food diaries from people in my area b/c I can get ideas and know it will be in my grocery store!

    Hi I'm Daniel from Nashua, NH.


    I'm only one month in to changing my body and getting in shape so I haven't started looking for activities but I figured this was a good way to stat looking.

    I do plan to start skydiving again next May at Skydive Pepperell.

    I also plan to start running 5k's around then as well.

    I started at 275 and now 25 days later I am 266. My goal is 199 and toned. I still need to get my measurments taking of inches and BMI but I don't have a caliper yet, am not a member of a gym, and my health insurance doens't kick in for a couple more weeks. BUT SOON!!!

    Hey! My name is Nilam and im an 18 year old about to start college at Barnard college in NYC. I just started using this site as a way to stay on top of what I eat while in college and to tone up a bit more. I have been a runner for four years and hope to keep running for as long a as I can. I love trail running so I'll be needing some motivation to run during the transition to road running on the city. Feel free to add me since I don't have many friend yet:)

    Hi everyone!!! My name is Kenyette and I live and work in Howard County Maryland. I joined MFP around March and didnt really start using it until April. Tracking what i eat and how I exercise has really helped me lose weight. I topped the scale at 243 and I knew it was time for a change! I got a Planet Fitness membership and I now log every morsel that I eat. So far i have lost 12 lbs. That may be little to some, but I feel like I have moved mountains. I wish everyone luck in their weight loss journeys. If you need motivation, I am a great supporter. Feel free to add me as a friend.

    My name is Charmen and I live outside of Portland, Maine. I just started here on MFP about 10 days ago and so far, it has been great keeping me in check! I tend to be competitive with myself so having the trackers is motivating! I need to lose at least 80 pounds so will be here for awhile!

    Have a great week!
