I downloaded the MFP app long time ago but never got into using it until recently. I wish to bring my weight below 200 pounds before Christmas. I spent a large portion of my time in bed due to health issues. I was recently given permission to exercise. I would like to be a support and encouragement to friends as well as be supported and encouraged.

    Good for you, that is an awesome goal! I have struggled with a binge eating disorder but I am trying to overcome it and lose the weight I gained. I need to love 25-35 lbs and it is SO HARD!!! It's awesome that you're trying to change though, way to go!

    Thank you, would you like to be friends.
    I have a little more weight to lose than you do I need to lose about 70 pounds. If my scale is accurate it does play games with me from day today.

    Welcome! Take it a day at a time. I had the MFP app for a year before actually taking my weight loss seriously so you got this!!!

    I'm in a very similar position and have recently been told it's fine for me to start exercising again. If it helps, my physio has suggested that an exercise bike is a great low-impact starting point. And some serious dietary changes.

    I would love to get one of those but it's just not in my budget. I take a lot of medication that makes me extremely dizzy most of the time. So I need exercises I can do seated or in bed. How long have you been doing MFP?
