    You can add me if you want. :flowerforyou: I am here because I am much healthier when I log my food. I find I eat too much when I'm not focusing on health and then when I think I'm eating healthier I sometimes don't eat enough. I don't really go to the gym, but I do taekwondo 3 times a week and Brazilian jiu jitsu twice a week. I keep telling my self I need to strength train and do some extra cardio because it will help me but I just haven't followed trough with that yet.

    Wow, you're a genius! That is THE single most impressive phrasing of "no fatties" I have read in all my time on MFP. Hat's off!
    oops wrong place I'm a fattie, maybe next year :sad:

    Wait a second, I welcome all new friends, regardless of current physical condition - I have a lot of respect for everyone here, as we are all working hard and sacrificing to improve ourselves! I just created this thread because I also wanted to target “maintenance” people, as our needs and goals are often different than people who are primarily attempting to lose a lot of weight. I’m not sure how that can be interpreted as saying “no fatties”, but there is no conspiracy here!

    Easy man we are only messing with you.

    On a serious note your original message you mentioned learning new exercise habits, I can help with running
    Run 3 x a week have a day off in between runs
    1 run easy
    1 run efforts like short sprints or hill work
    & 1 run long
    It's as simple as that.

    Oh and add in stretching everyday as part as your routine.

    Hey and don't worry I won't be a fattie for long :bigsmile:

    Thank you for your service. Humbled by what you sacrifice. I have a lot to lose, so I am not really what you wanted in a friend lol, but wanted to say thank you all the same.

    I also thank you for your service and also am not what you're looking for as far as friends for motivation. I am on the losing end although I am an excellent motivator.

    I do however, wish you the best of luck in your endeavors! :)

    Please add me. I'm new to this site, so still working my way around it, but loving reading all the messages! Don't really have an awful lot of weight to lose, around 6-7 pounds, but it's all in the same area! So really looking to be more disciplined with food- and wine!- intake, and become stronger and more toned. Have always exercised and eaten relatively healthily, but really need to avoid the naughty cupboard more! Also, have lower back issues, so any hints regarding lifting would be fab, as I do mostly cardio- and happy to reciprocate if I can.
