    You click on the name & then a popup of that person pops up. So you click again on the name or send them a message. So once you get to their profile there is this blue guy looking icon with a + sign. That's how you add them. I have an iPhone. So I don't know if it looks different on android. Hope it helps.

    Feel free to add me as well. I've been on here a few weeks but still have another 40 lbs to lose and then gotta keep it off. I'm pretty good about logging every day too and seeing others doing the same in the news feed is good motivation I've found.

    Thanks. Well when I try that, a blank message writing thing opens and then I have totally forgotten their specific name & characters for their user name... so I have not tried anything else..., yes I am on Android.

    I haven't been on here for 3 years and did great for 3 years but I just had ACL replacement surgery done 2 weeks ago so I will be out of work for 6 months and no gym either for awhile.... Not till my therapist lets me work out again. SO I am back on here to keep my weight down and make sure I don't over eat in a day. If you want to add me as a friend you can. :)

    Hey guys! I am new to MyFitnessPal and trying to lose weight I have gained. I know that you are more likely to stay on track if you have friends in the same boat. Anyone want to connect with me? Thanks :)

    Yes

    Sorry about your health issues. That is why I gained about 40 lbs in the last 3 1/2 years, heart arrhythmia's , Fibro & mostly bad neck & hip. Now I also found out I do in fact have another health issue we thought I had years ago & it went into remission, blah, so much to deal with, so much stress on the body. I'm on ice as I type = epidural yesterday.
    I joined a low carb high fat group on fb and just slowly getting on here. That seems to work well for me.
    I do not know how to add friends, when I click on a name then it goes to a blank page to write a message & I cannot remember someone's exact symbols, capitals, lower case etc to send a message.
    That is the only thing that ever comes up for me, nothing about "add a friend" Lol!

    Looking for friends and support too. Still trying to figure this app out
  • Posts: 15 Member
    I just tried to send a message to MariRaina and the server had problems. That is all I know how to do so far, it does not give an option to add friend when I click on a name. I know there is a place to search for a friend but you need all kinds of info I think? I am not sure. Today is the first time I logged on on my laptop, so I will look around and see... I am looking for similar macros and age...I think that does make a difference. If you are in your 20's your body mass is probably much better than mine, over 50, and I cannot exercise because of all the health issues. Just my opinion, maybe the Keto Calculator will say differently. ?
    Have a great day and weekend!
