Is it weightloss? Is it to build muscle? To keep track of your nutrition? Or all of the above :)

    Mostly weight loss at this point. Over four years I have gone from a healthy weight to being obese, and I want to cut back on that. Additionally, I NEVER exercised before (always hated it even as a child!), so I'm hoping to incorporate exercise into my weight loss so that I can be fitter.

    Mine is two fold...to lose weight and by that end, being healthier. I have RA so any extra weight on my body means more pain in my joints. More pain in my joints means I don't move as much, which leads to more weight...which leads to depression, and eating more...and its a vicious cycle. I've just decided to break that cycle before its too late.

    Lose a bit more weight (about 11/12lbs) and get even fitter, train for a 10K and (when money allows!) get back to gym and lift heavy again!

    Wow that is absolutely fantastic! Congratulations! I lost 10kg before using Myfitnesspal and now I would just like to monitor my nutrition and exercise and hopefully share all of the knowledge I've obtained with others to help them with their journey!

    Lose a tiny bit of BF and get more muscle. Ideal weight is about 147lb, so that's about 7lb to lose. Apart from that, get lifting and eat better.

    To get to a healthy weight, so I hopefully don't get the same weight related health issues as my mother and my older sister and to get enough stamina to go on hiking vacations.

    I have tried different diets for the last 15 years, never worked, started using this app on 7/1/13, found I weighed 350 lbs, disgusted with myself. Today I weigh 290, feel fantastic, eating up the compliments at work. Still a long way to go but for the first time I'm scared of putting weight back on, that appears to be the biggest motivator for ensuring I don't. This app is fantastic for keeping track of what you actually put in your mouth.

    Lose about 10 more pounds and then STAY on MFP to track my diet so I don' put any of it back on. Keep working out wih the hope of aging slowly and gracefully.

    Weightloss and to just be healthier overall. I want it to be easy for me to just automatically make healthy choices without even really needing to think about it.

    I want to get back to a healthy weight and get in shape before I have baby #2. I was way out of shape when I got pregnant with #1 and it's 10x harder to lose that old weight (not baby weight) after you have a baby. Plus I just wanna feel good about myself and be healthy and happy for my kid(s)!! :)

    My goal is to ultimately lose weight and be in the normal range for my age/height/gender. I have a good sum to lose too. I started at 289 pounds and need to be around 130/135 pounds. I've lost 50 so far but still have a long way to go.

    Losing Weight is at the top of my list. Need to eat healthy, take care of my heart. Plus I want all my energy back. It's been gone for quite a while now.

    Remember why you started and be strong!!!!

    I just started this week. At first it was definitely weight loss but I love the way this keeps track of my nutrition. I have been using Weight Watchers App but I love this app and it is free and so much information. I'm really excited! :wink:
