    Hi all,

    Just joined today-taking advantage of that extra time on this glorious 3 day weekend! I'm a 37 y.o. woman needing to lose about 80 lbs., give or take. I have tried it ALL and have found logging works best. I love that MFP is free and love their app. It's just day 1 and I know I'll need support so if anyone is in the same boat, feel free to friend!

    :happy:

      ou can add me. When I started, I set my goal at losing 85 lbs. I am 28 lbs. down so far. I can honestly say that if I can lose weight, anyone can. Mfp has been a great success for me, including all of the support all my pals offer me!

      I have been back and forth with this app and I'm ready to do it. I'm 5'1 1/2 and about 195-197 these days. Looking to get healthier more than anything but looking to lose 30 pounds. I don't ever want to be "skinny" I just want to be healthy and active....and who doesn't want to look a little better in a bathing suit. Am I right? Totally new to STICKING to a diet/exercise plan so ANYONE feel free to add me on here because I have NO idea what I'm doing.

      38 y/o starting with 30 pounds to lose to begin with. Started out a week ago or so.

      Aiming to get rid of that overweight BMI status. Let's see where it goes.

      I've decided to index everything; endomondo for running, fitbit one for daily activity and fitbit aria for weighting.

      Just starting today. Have about 110# to lose. Seems so insurmountable, but I just have to take it one day at a time.
