    Hi I would love to have more friends on here too :-) I'll send you a request. Regarding macronutrients a good website is: iifym.com that has handy calculators on there for working out your percentages
    Good work on your weightloss! I am down about 11lbs since the start of the year and have approximately 15lb's to go. So far I have lost 38lbs on mfp.. the majority I lost over 2 years ago.

    Flexible Dieting (Or commonly known as If It Fits Your Macros) is the tracking of macronutrients (protein, carbohydrate and fat) to achieve a body composition goal. It's been the best diet I've ever tried and the first that I have had so much progress with. I was hoping to also find more people doing the flexible dieting on here.

    Isn't it the best? It doesn't even feel like dieting!

    My diabetic dietician actually suggested it and helped me figure out the best ratio for me. I've been able to come off my insulin! And still enjoy everything just smaller portions

    Getting started. A little overwhelmed. Signed up for the Warrior Dash in September this year and now freaking out.

    Hi Laura (& Kristi, Bekah, Allison, & Jasni)! I haven't been too active on here for awhile, so I'm not too sure how everything works... But I've been super active as far as eating healthy and working out to lose weight. I got a Fitbit and a Nutri Ninja for Christmas and they've literally been changing my life! I've lost about 10lbs. since the beginning of the year- and my goal wasn't even to lose weight. I just wanted to get toned because I haven't been eating right or exercising in quite awhile.

    Anyway, I'm also looking for accountability buddies on here and more FRIENDS!! They wrote that people who share their weight loss and activities lose TWICE as much as those who don't... So I'll be sending friend requests to a few of you... And I think it'd be pretty great if some of us, w/ maybe a few things in common, could form a group to help hold each other accountable... And participate in challenges against each other, both on this app- and maybe even in "real life" run a 5K or sign up for that Warrior Dash that's coming up- if any of us live near each other.

    I live in the Seattle area. I look forward to joining together w/ you guys to really help ACHIEVE our weight loss and health goals! The more the merrier!

    I also would love to have more friends on here. I also have a fitbit. Would love to have friends for that also. I have found the fitbit really pushes me. Add me if you would like :)

    Hi all, I sent a few requests. I've lost about 30 pounds since last fall. I'm working on increasing my exercise, adding a strength program and weighing my food. I've got another 50 - 60 to lose yet. Talk soon!
