    Hello, My name is Brittany and I am 30 years old. Like lots of people I've always struggled with my weight. I've lost, I've gain, over and over again. This last time I jumped on board I decided enough is enough and I will make a change for the good. I've been on board since the beginning of August and don't plan on stopping because I like where this is going. Feel free to add me as a friend because I love to motivate people and for people to motivate me. There's nothing like a great support system for a successful outcome.:blushing:

    I am 37 and could really use some advice. I never give up but I am having a terrible time staying on track. I eat responsibly for a few days...up to 10 or so and then I "fall of the wagon". I think I have a really bad relationship with food because I am eating the wrong things for the wrong reasons. I am eating when I m stressed...almost like I am on automatic pilot. And when I do I go way overboard....I am "starting over" again tomorrow but that is issue. I commit to starting over, do good for a day or two and then somehow lose my mind and discipline and go off the deep end again with food. I need to try something different which is what is prompting to post this. Obviously, being stuck in this cycle literally for years is not working.

    I will have 3 kids in less than 4 years (third one d in Jan). That has really re-shaped my life. I have been using kids as the excuse for poor eating but it is really me.

    The really sad thing is when I signed up for myfitnesspal because I was getting heavy I was at 193. I am now about 215-220! And I hate it.

    Thoughts, feedback would be much appreciated. Knowing what to do is not my issue. I know the behaviors and choices I should make. I just really struggle staying on track. I am so sick and tired of being sick and tired.

    Also how do include my lbs lost tracker in my posts? I see everyone else can do that but I have not been able to figure out how.

    Hi Ya'all, I am from the beautiful State of Wisconsin. Just turned 46 and my goal is Fab and Fit. I am in the military and due to a few injuries over the last few years I have gained 46 pounds and refuse to continue to hate life. I have joined a gym, and I am working with a trainer that is working with my injuries and learning to eat clean. Support, motivation and accountability are what I need. Hence the trainer that I can't afford... Knowing I have an appointment and have to report makes it so much easier than the procrastination I am famous for when it comes to my health. Feel free to add me. Good luck to Ya'all~!

    45 in just a week or so and re-committed to being active daily on MFP. I've been successful in my fitness journey, but some health issues resulted in a minor setback. I'm a Midwesterner - love boating, photography, and music. Empty nester, but bad at time management and putting myself first. When I'm committed, I'm obsessive, when I'm off the wagon - I'm waaaaayyy off.

    I like friends who are blunt in their MFP interactions - I don't need a lot of cheerleading for completing my journal, but need accountability if you see bad calories choices, not enough water, or no exercise. I value quality feedback.

    That's me in a nutshell :-) Add me if we share like philosophies!

    34 here. Just got in a couple of days back. I weigh 120 kg and need to desperately cut down on the kilos. Don't mind if you all out there talk about cheeseburgers, that's how I got here in the first place. Need some friends to motivate me. Thanks.

    Anyone, feel free to add me!! :) I've had MFP for a while, just haven't added friends. I have just used it for calorie tracking and such.. I would like to add friends to help with motivation and also realize that there are others that have off days with dieting and weight loss.. :) Thanks much!
