Asalaam Alaikum, My name Is Shereese I am 31 with 4 children. I live in Kansas City Missouri and I have only been on MFP for about 17ish days BUT I LOVE IT. I find that there are so many positive people on here it is a great community to not only lose weight but GET HEALTHY. So nice to meet you ALL!!!

Hiya everyone,
I am Lulla (nickname) and I am 26. I am Arab and from the UK but live and work in Dubai.
I just really need to eat healthy and tone up! I feel like I've been on a diet my whole life but now Inshallah I am determined to have a healthy lifestyle!
Any support/motivation welcome!!!

Salam all,

after usually binging every Ramadan and putting on weight, now I am the heaviest I've ever been so I've decided it is time to benefit physically from Ramadan as well as spiritually,.. which is why I'm here!

Here's hoping I manage to lose weight this month!

Looking forward to getting to you all

Ramadan Kareem,

Lisa

P.S I'm in London

Salaam aleykum and Ramadan mabrouk to everyone..

My name is Therese and I am from Sweden, live in Tunisia. Muslim since -05. I joined MFP and lost 20 kg's, unfortunately gained a little more than half of it back due to emotional stress related to my health problems. I'm in Sweden now to try to find out what's wrong with me, probably something neurological. But alhamdulillah.

Anyway... Joined MFP again because I really, REALLY feel bad and my weak muscles obviously can't handle the weight! I know losing the weight will not make the spasms and pain go away but it sure doesn't get any better when I'm fat.

Please add me to your friend list, I could use some support and hope to be able to give support as well. :happy: :flowerforyou:

Assalamu Alaykum to all..

I was born muslim, I am half American and half Arab and living in the Middle East in a country called Oman (which isn't very well known at all.. I can't even find it in the location settings! )

I have been struggling with my weight for almost my entire life; the last time I was at a "normal" weight, I was a very young child, and I am nearly 19 now. I have made a lot of progress, I think, but I still have quite a bit of weight left to lose.

I was very glad to find a forum for muslims on here, as I have never found any other muslims on the site.

Ramadan kareem and best of luck to everyone on your journey :happy:

ASA Everybody

I'm Ahmed (though my real name is Danny) from Arizona. I became a Muslim in June of 2011. I am married for one year to my wife that reverted to Islam about a year before I did. Looking forward to supporting each other and getting healthy

Eid Mubarak everybody!

Hi all I'm a 32 year old, in Idaho, USA and I've been studying Islam and planning to revert for some months now (but have not done it yet, I do not know anyone really offline to discuss this with ). I'm happy to see this group!!

As salaam alaykum, my name is Ayyub. I am from Massachusetts In the U.S., I am married with 4 wife and 19 children....lol just joking, I am married to the most amazing woman that I have ever known, we have 1 son named Maalik, he is 18 months old, I also have another son from before Islam, named Andrew, he is going to be 18 next month. I currently do the exercise program P90x, on day 32 of 90 so far I have lost 8 pounds. I may have lost more had it not been that I live on the 3rd floor in an apartment and I don't want to jump around and disturb my neighbors. I am working on developing a workout and eating regimen for Muslims that will take into account halal foods and our modest dressing and interactions. I pray that you all find success with your program/diet.

As'salaamu alaykum
