Looking to make new friends and share diet and workout tips and tricks!

Options
Hey, I'm Joshua!

So until tonight I had no idea that a MFP community existed! I've been religiously keeping track of everything I eat and fine tuning aspects of my diet over the years, but thought connecting with other health and fitness enthusiasts here on MFP could help push my gains to the next level. Having someone else with similar interests and goals who can relate to whatever stage you're at can be very encouraging! I would love to connect with people on here to share our diet and workout tips and tricks with one another and help motivate each other to achieve our goals! And, making new friends in the process isn't so bad, either :)

Feel free to leave a message or add me if you'd like!

    I need a good support group. As well, you can't be successful on your own.

    Hey man how's it going. I too just discovered this community function on my fitness. I'm at day 67 of clean eating, and daily fitness. I've lost 24 pounds and developed a leaner build. Be great to share routines, and some of the foods that I became one with, and others I had to divorce.... Patrick here.

    I to work nights and long days. I take about 10 pieces of fruit it. As I snack when I'm tired I find it helps. Also try cutting down the monster drinks 1 at a time over the weeks/months you should find that you don't need any at all??x

    Inlv2003: I couldn't agree more!! Before setting it up, I thought I had a pretty good handle on how much of various nutritional components I was consuming on a daily basis. I couldn't have been more wrong! MFP has played a crucial role in helping to adjust and refine my diet in accordance with my fitness goals.

    StilettoFashionista: What are your thoughts on the utility of the fitbit? I've heard a few things but the response has been somewhat mixed. Also, what are daily burn workouts?

    I just downloaded the app on January 3rd. I had let myself go after being a lean, mean, fighting machine the Army. I had too many excuses for not working out and eating better. Since the 3rd, I've cut out fast food (hard), started exercising (harder) and cut out beer (hardest). I've lost 8 pounds and I know exactly what I am eating and I'm pumped to get home so I can work out every day. Feeling better. Just need to lose another 69 pounds and I'll be good to go. Good luck. Anyone feel free to add me. Love to have more people to keep me motivated and I will return the favor.

    Feel free to add me! I keep my diary open to friends and give out kudos relentlessly. A lot of my friends on here are no longer active, so I'm looking for motivation as well.
