hello everyone. i'm new to the mfp website but i have been enjoying the app on my phone for a couple weeks. just to tell you a little about myself.. i'm a 43 year old dad of 3 (ages 21,18 and 15) and married to my wife of 23 years. i'm a high school baseball coach and love the game. like i said, i've been using the app on my phone for about two weeks now and i have already lost 10 pounds. tomorrow i'll be finishing up week 3 of the c25k program. i have been down this weight loss road before too many times.. hopefully with the help of myfitnesspal (and some new friends??) i'll be more successful at getting to my goal and staying there for good. looking forward to giving and getting some support from people in similar positions!

    I hear you and welcome. I too have lost quite a bit of weight since starting this program. Has me a little concerned. I'm sure the metabolism will slow down sometime, but I am quite happy as well. Good luck to you and if you need to share ideas, just holla'.
