    Hi. I don't really know how to add people, either. But I'm not skinny. I like foods, I love carbs, and I think cheese and chocolate should be food groups. That said, I am fighting fat and high blood pressure, so I am trying to lose weight. I have lost over 10 pounds, and I'm down to 213 on my weigh this morning. This is a slow process for me, but I'm tired of yoyo dieting. I am counting calories right now, and excercising lightly on a treadstepper. If you want to chat, bi**h, or share great news, I'm with ya! Oh- and the calorie count I'm using is 1500 a day. If I eat a brownie or a truffle, it goes on my food. I've decided I can lie to myself- but the scale won't lie to me. So I own up to it and stay on the treadstepper to tell it to go away! :)

    I'm ready to be a friend, but like you I'm having trouble finding one. Hope you have better luck.
    I'm also sort of new to MFP and need help.

    Hi and welcome :smile: . To add friends you click on their name to view their profile. Once you are viewing the profile you should see a button that says "add friend". I sent a friend request to all of you

    To add friends from the mobile app, you have to exit the Community forums, click on Friends, then click the "+" in the upper left. Select invite by email, then type the username.
    There doesn't seem to be a way to view people's profiles from the forums.
