    Hi Katie,

    Welcome to MFP! I'm sure you'll find heaps of great, supportive people on here working their way to their goals too.

    I'm on California, have 2 little kids (3 1/2 & 1) and have been on MFP since June. In that time my friends here have helped me lose 40kgs. Add me if you like.

    Hi Katie, Welcome!!!
    Great to hear that you're on the path to leading a healthier lifestyle by doing it the healthy way
    It really does get tiring after trying everything and to have nothing work frankly it's quite frustrating

    Let's make it a great journey :)

    Good Luck!!!

    Hello from Calgary! Happy New Year everyone! I just took a closer look at the tools in MFP and found the message board. What a great idea... let's motivate each other!
  • Hey everyone,
    SW Calgary here, I'm new to the city and looking to explore some good hiking places :)
    I'm also thinking about getting a membership at Goodlife, anyone recommend that over World Health or better gyms I should look into?
    Thanks and let's keep each other motivated :)

    Hey everyone. I am from Calgary too. Trying this site out again...I was on it once before but lost all motivation. I have been away from the gym for about 3 months now due to 2 stomach tears that I had (from my initial appointment with a personal trainer). The Dr. said to take it easy.

    Just looking for some new friends or online motivation (cause I really need it!!) I have all the motivation in my mind, but then my comfy pajamas and couch quite easily take over!
