Hi! I gained a lot of weight because of medication, and overeating. I have been using this app for a week and have lost 9 lbs! It would be cool to have some friends for mutual support. I am 34 years old 249lbs, goal weight 160, 5"4.

    Howdy.

    I joined a long while back but never took it seriously - started using MFP about 9 days ago and being accountable by using the food tracker here. I'm a male, 43, need to drop 100lbs as well.

    Welcome to the journey. :)

    Hii! I'm 25 I have a goal to lose 80-100 pounds just started back on MFP again less than a week ago I've lost 4 pounds so far. Looking to incorporate more excersise in my goals when I'm finished up exams next week. I'm a little nervous for the holidays so it would be awesome to have as much support as possible!
