    Hi,

    I am Victoria from Trinidad in the Caribbean. I am 46. 5. 2. and need to lose about 20 more lbs (should be more but I am not pushing it, lol) and most importantly keep it off this time.

    I am new here and still trying to learn all the different things,

    Looking for friends that log in regularly and want to help each other.

    Also I love meeting people from different parts of the world.

    Add me if you are interested. :smile:

    Hi. I'm Kurstin. I have tracked my food on MFP privately for quite some time on and off (or on other software or by hand) previously. Always wanted to keep my portions in line, make sure I'm getting enough of things, but then take breaks so I didn't get fixated on it. Like to go in spells of just focusing on healthy foods and less on calories as well. I have plenty of nutrition knowledge and am great at motivating others to make simple healthy changes--this is not my struggle. :) However, over the last two years living on my own and having my first job, I have gained about 5 lbs, and just haven't been making many of those healthy choices. I think the missing factor is a bit of motivation from other people trying to do the same. So I would love to have some support! Message me or add me or however that works. I'm not sure how things work on here. Can people actually view your daily food and exercise and comment on it? I have never used that feature before, but would love that accountability.

    My info
    Ht: 5'8"
    Current wt: 164#
    Goal wt: 150#

    Would love someone who is in a similar position (single female, living on your own possibly, works out moderately and loves healthy food but just struggles to care somedays!). I want to be at a slightly lower wt, but more than what I want to take care of myself, rather than "letting it slide" and fueling up on junk at work or if I'm bored.

    Thanks!

    Hi! I've been using the app pretty regularly for the last month or so and have lost about 15 lbs since starting! I have a long ways to go to reach my goal though. Feel free to add as I could use any support I can get and I'd love to cheer on others as well!

    Hi, I'm a work-at-home mom to a toddler and I started here on MFP nearly 90 days ago, lost 8 pounds, and have been fighting a plateau ever since! But I haven't given up. I would like to lose 100 pounds, even if it takes me a long time. I want to make permanent changes to my lifestyle....

    Right now my exercise is mainly walking/running around with my toddler which I track using my Fitbit Flex (love it!).

    I'm friendly and I'm on MFP every day. Anyone is welcome to add me as a friend. :)

    Hello,

    I am 46 yrs old, started last month at 293, currently weigh 280, and my goal is 169.

    I too am trying the slow method, one pound per week. I try to exercise everyday, cardio at least three times a week (bike for 45 minutes), some weights (maybe once or twice a week, don't like gym much), and if I don't do cardio I at least try to walk about three miles. Sometimes I do both if the day is nice.

    Good luck to all, other people do this, we can too!

    Hi all! I'm not new to MFP but I am new to the social side of things. Most of the people I joined with have not been active lately so I could use some friends! I think it would be great to log in every day and see a group of friends that are keeping each other sane. I don't take myself too seriously. Just want to work on my healthier self and have some laughs. If you can use a friend, hit me up.

    Good luck to you all!

    Hey! I've used MFP on and off throughout the last year. This time I need to stick to it, so I'm adding friends hoping it will keep me motivated. I'm 22 years old and an Elementary Education major. Trying to work on eating healthier and cutting out alcoholic drinks to lose weight.

    Feel free to add me! MFP is more fun with friends!

    Hello! I'm Kalyn and since I graduated from school I've gained quiet a bit of weight because of unhealthy eating. I need to get back into shape, I want to get back to being 135 pounds but my first goal is that I want to be able to run a mile again without feeling like I'm going to die.

    My personal friends don't want to do this/help me, and I would love to get some support through MFP.

    Hey! I'm not new to this, since I've sadly fallen off the bandwagon a few times. However, I'm excited to start over, get some friends, and really keep motivated and motivate others. Im relatively young, and have an overly hyper 2 year old and a husky/malamute mix puppy. I can't wait to lose these 70 pounds and feel great again!

    Hi guys! I'm Alexx, I'll be 19 July 12th! I'm a 5'2 shorty trying to fit into cute clothing for concerts and time with friends. Definitely looking for help on here with food, exercises for chicks that have big boobs (I'm a DD and holy crap working out can really hurt my chest and back with those), and just positive attitudes! I weigh currently 155 pounds and I guess online searches have been saying that my ideal weight should be 120 pounds but idk that sounds kind of unhealthy for me but I'm really looking to see how far I can go until I actually like myself and how I look in my own skin. Let's be friends!
