Hi I'm Tracy - a 45 year old widow who is fairly new at MFP. I've lost 25 lbs since January 2015, but I am stagnate now and have another 60 lbs to go. I don't want to give up and I don't want to gain it back!! I'm feeling GREAT and I'm watching what I eat and I have joined a gym. I would appreciate giving and receiving support, encouragement and suggestions along my journey. Join me??

    Hi Tracy! I've lost about 30 lbs, have about 70 left, and have been stagnate for FAR too long. But, I love to eat and really haven't found an exercise that I enjoy yet. I keep logging my food (mostly, sometimes it's hard to log the binges without beating myself up) everyday, and try to find time for exercising. I find the logging helps keep my calories in check, at least I know what I've been eating during the day. Good luck to you!

    You can do it Tracy! It's the people that never give up that really succeed. You've done a great job so far! I'm always happy to lend a helping hand, so hit me up if you have questions.

    Hello Tracy and to you all buddies,

    My name is Jasmine/Yasmine , I am a new user ,I feel confused a little bit about how to use this app but I think it is really interesting and it has got what I have been looking for since many years ago which i "company" , I am here for the same mission we are dying to make ; losing weight .The issue is very serious to me since I had a variety of health problems , finding people with the same problem "obesity" to support ,share and motivate is definitely effective and fruitful, the concept of group therapy is pretty wonderful and protective. I have a plenty of information about types of diets as I am studying nutrition right now , I decided to help myself by helping others and that is why I studied about life & relationship coaching too so I can help changing my life and others' ones as well. My target is to lose 88 lbs in 20 weeks, I don't know how can we communicate with each others but if any suggestions would be great !

    Best of luck to you
