    Hey! I'm new on this too! I only have a few friends I've managed to add. Feel free to add me as I need some motivation help as well!!
    What's your goal timeline like? Are you adding fitness as well or just eating better?

    Welcome! I started this journey myself a few months ago for much the same reasons - I need to lose weight, but it was also important to me to build fitness, so strength training and cardio (HIIT) are key parts of my plan as well.

    Hey! I'm a Vegetarian with thousands of recipes both homemade and from the books. I've been a vegetarian for quite a while and I've seen amazing results in my health, energy levels, and muscle mass/weight loss. I feel great. I would always recommend a vegetarian lifestyle because there are thousands of benefits :smiley: it's not for everyone, but it's definitely worth giving it a good try :smiley:

    MFP is a great community but in my opnion, nothing beats joining a gym where you go and meet people. Where I go I see the same people, they motivate me immensely. We push eachother and support eachother...
