    Hi there, I'm in the same boat you, I have 3 girls 6, 5 and 3, because of my fitness pal I lost 6lbs, I was delighted but then just had surgery on friday so I desperately need friends here to hold me accountable to weight loss.

    If you don't mind drinking tea, try green tea for a few weeks then "upgrade" to oolong tea! It definetly helps keep the weight off even without working out

    Are those teas I can purchase in the store or do they have to be purchased online? I'm sure the green tea can be bought in stores . I'm not a huge fan of tea but at this point I'm willing to try just about anything!!
    -Anna, it sucks! I wish my family lived somewhere warm all year!!

    I've been using MFP on and off for a few years but never fully utilized all the great tools or support. I am just beginning again this morning and could use some support/friends on here. My ultimate goal is to lose 70 pounds in the end. My first goal is 33 pounds by mid summer! I live in upstate New York and it was -15 out this morning! I have 3 busy children ages 6-12. We have a membership to the Y in town but it's more or less a monthy donation.

    Welcome (: I wish I has some kind of membership, but it would probably very seldom get used. I'm busy most of the time. Hopefully we can all reach our goals together

    I'm Derek, I've been using this for about 21 days and I've been on bodybuilding.com since November, from using this app/website I've been able to track my meals and stay under a calorie goal, not sure how much fat I've shed but I've put on some muscle!

    That's awesome! I like this bc I can track my calories and meals super easy! I'm looking for a better app to count my steps. I don't think the one I have is very accurate.
