Hi all!
Brand new to MFP. I've had it downloaded but never got around to using it.. but I heard that using food/exercise journals can drastically improve your results.. so here I am! Looking for some support to keep me motivated!!

To start, I'm Looking to lose 20-30 pounds before I go away on vacation in 2 months (I've had it with the cold here in Canada!!) I need to whip myself back into shape .. also hoping to one day fit into a bikini again...

What's everyone's story? :smile:

    Hey girl hey! I'm new-ish. Lol. Just like u I had the app for a while and a friend of mine message me on it because I've been inactive for ages! So since a week now I'm consistent and plan on staying that way. Add me as a friend so we can support and cheer on each other! Don't forget to share your diary so we can get some healthy meal ideas when we run out of our own. Anyone else reading this on the same page can add me as well!! ✌️

    Hi, I'm not so new I keep starting and stopping. Have not used the app in almost a year if not longer. But I'm fully focused and motivated to achieve my health and fitness goals this time round. In need of some friends to offer motivational support to keep me going. Feel free to add me.

    Hey, fellow Canadian here! I'm in southern ontario and we've been hit hard!

    Just like you I've had the app a while and never committed to using it. This time around I've requested a mentor and she's given me some diet and exercise suggestions which were great! I've logged every day since I started, just 6 days, but it's a start! I also need to lose 30 lbs, maybe a bit more. I'm already down almost 5 lbs which is more than I ever expected. Even if it's mainly water weight, I'll take it!

    Also looking for motivation buddies and I'd be happy to return the favour :)

    Hey,
    I'm also new and getting started. I've been on at least 25 days in a row now. I'm really liking this app so far. Keeps me mindful of what I'm putting in my body. I want to really eat clean. Add me that would be awesome! I'm also a fellow Canadian!
