New to Fitness Pal.

Hi, new to fitness pal. Just started this past week. I'm looking into losing weight and changing to better eating habits. Then to maintain. I just want to have energy and to be active again.

    Hi, Welcome. This app really helps me. I have never counted calories before and this makes it so easy. I have been using it for about 72 days with with great success.

    Hi..

    I'm new too! I created a profile almost 2 years ago, but didn't follow through, since I was a WW member, and was doing GREAT! But, of course, I stopped following, stopped paying attention, and gained it all back. I've done this so darn many times, and am sick of feeling the way I feel. If I could have once lost 80 lbs, and kept it off for almost 10 years, I can do this now. Like others here, my life has been pure stress lately, but I am so grateful for all that I have, and the health that I'm also lucky enough to have. I'm not looking forward to yet another Wisconsin winter, which, coupled with my love of all things kitchen, causes my butt to get bigger and bigger :(

    Hey there! This is the third attempt for me to lose weight, and so far, this has been my best yet! My favorite part of MyFitnessPal is the community. There is SO much support on here, inspirational stories, and great suggestions for food and working out.

    Feel free to add me, I love to support my fellow MFPers!
  • Hi, I'm new too! I lost 60 lbs outside of MFP. I joined a gym mid August (hadn't been to one in about 20 years) and try to workout 5 times a week. Could use some friends for support!

    Hi everyone! Though I am less than new to this site, I'm always looking for more support. I've lost 50 lbs in the past using another site and this had helped me in the same way. My goal is to lose 80 lbs and I've already lose 13 so far since August. It's hard, and some days I'm not motivated, but I log no matter what! I also run a group on here. Feel free to add me, or message me to find out more about my group :-) Good luck everyone!

    Friend Request Sent! Welcome to MFP!
  • Hi MFP peeps,
    This is my first time on this site, hope it helps to give me some inspiration. i know i needed to lose weight but after just being on holiday to Las Vegas i decided to weigh myself today. All i could do was bite my lip and tried not to cry in the middle of the pharmacy!!
    Has anyone tried a meal replacement shake, just to kick start my diet?

    Thanks :D

    I'm new to Fitness Pal. I did Weight Watchers for one year and lost 21 lbs. there but wanted something for free that works about the same. I find that the Weight Watcher website tracker and My Fitness Pal have a lot of similarities. I'm hoping to lose 10 more pounds.

    Welcome! MFP has definitely helped me learn the habits/behaviors I needed to change, and the motivation and support from friends is great too! have an open diary, please feel free to add me and let me know if you have any questions! :drinker:
  • Hi I'm Madison, and new as well (at least to posting here!). If anyone wants new friends feel free to add me! I would love to be apart of new support groups. This app has been incredibly helpful in changing my pretty awful eating habits, but most importantly for me it hasn't been difficult at all! Good luck to everyone!
