in Introduce Yourself
i have been on this site a while now, it was all going ok , i stuck with a calorie and low salt and sugar diet, did the workouts at home or the gym, and the weight dropped off, i am on tablets for my thyroids which is a big part to my weight gain, as these tablets are supose to be helping me correct my thyroid balance but instead i have gained the weight, so i told my doctor that i am not going to take them until he finds me something more suitable. and to top that i have been ill for just over a month now and gained a little weight back on due to me being unwell to exercise. now im just stuck in a muddle, as i think my motivation has done a runner! and i have no friends who want to join me to lose the weight, so please can someone give me some motivation and be my friend !!! thanks

    Hi :)
    I have just started with MFP, but I've been counting calories for a while... I mean, every now and then, when the chocolate wasn't to tempting.
    I actually have a hypothyroiditis as well, so I'm on thyroid hormones. I don't think I gained weight from them, they even get me more motivated.
    If you'd like to become friends, so that we can motivate each other, I'd like that! :)

    Today is my first day on this site and I think it's great for tracking everything. I'm so impressed and also motivated to use it. I lost weight at Tops Inc. and reached my goal and was actually Queen of my chapter. I walked 4-5 miles 5 days a week. While I was able to do that, the weight stayed off but knee problems developed and eventually two knee replacements. Forty pounds came back and now I'm struggling to take them off. I have committed myself to walking 20 minutes 3 times a week and doing some resistance exercises with a theraband on the other days. Sundays are going to be my off day. You're a smart gal, I'm sure, and can figure out something to help you in your situation too. Let's work together. Success can happen! :happy:

    You guys can add me as well :) I live in Sydney, Australia and I'm trying my best to keep me and my boyfriend on the right track food wise. I try to eat as much home cooked food as possible and I try to make my healthy versions of food we like eating out. Happy to share recipes as well.

    I'm in a similar boat. I need to take off 20 pounds to be in a "healthy" BMI. I haven't been there for over 10 years.
    I have been on MFP for less than a week. I need friends for accountablility.
    Unfortunately it is difficult to talk to my husband about fitness and diet as I feel judged by him. He has never struggled with his weight. He is also 10 years younger and not in perimenopause!!
    Anyone...feel free to add me!

    Keep taking the thyroid hormones. Everyday. It's not the pills that make you gain, it's what you eat. Keep logging in and watch what you eat. I am also hypothyroid. Add me as a friend.

    Hi, my name is Sarah and I lost 50 pounds with MFP over about a year's time. I was doing great with weight loss, but then I got married and pregnant and just kind of slacked on my goal. Now that my son is almost two months old, I'm ready to get back to it. I have about 100 pounds to go until my estimated goal weight, so I'm in it for the long haul. I don't have many friends on MFP, so anyone who needs motivation (and doesn't mind returning the favor) is more than welcome to add me. :)
