    Hi Bethany! I am 38 soon to be 39. So, I guess i'm barely eligible for the group. Lol I'm always looking for new friends and an accountability partner. I've done a program called Beachbody before and lost 100 pounds. So, I have the skills. Just need someone to keep me accountable. Someone to talk to about our struggles. What works, what doesn't. Definitely add me.

    I am 32, 5'2" with a current goal of 50lbs to lose.
    I started out at 230 and I'm currently 200.
    I want an active MFP support group that keeps me coming back here for more than just logging my food/weight. I have joined various groups in hopes there would be an active community and so far I'm finding it lacking.


    @beccahun1 and anyone else interested in joining an active group...


    Check out the Fat2Fit - Weight Loss Challenge Group, this group is awesome, helps provide a huge amount of support, encouragement and inspiration and will keep you coming back and back and back... I am a team captain and there are eight teams or roughly 30-35 per team that compete in a friendly monthly competition. I am on my fourth month and I love it. I have lost considerable weight since joining.

    If you join, ask to be on my team - Team Workout Wonders! We are a very active team, have all become good friends and have great support and encouragement. We would love to have you and anyone else interested in joining. Registration is open until the 29th. Hope to see you there...

    Feel free to add me, I am 37 years old and started over "again" on march 8th. I have lost 18 lbs so far and log in daily . ( I know it shows me at a 21 lb weight loss but those 3 pounds are probably from years ago lol)

    Been on MFP for a little over 3 months and i'm down 24 ish pounds....What gets measured, gets managed! My goal is to drop about 16 more pounds and then the hard part....maintain that weight and not yo-yo again. Tracking what i'm putting in my body def helps me with reaching my goals so far.

    Anyone feel free to add me! 32, started at 204lbs last week and down to 198 today. My realistic goal is 165. It recommends me at about 1500 but usually by 1200 I'm full (unless wine is involved.)

    Looking for accountability friends!

    Hello all, I'm 36 currently... 37 later in the year. I was on MFP a few years ago. I lost 20kilos which was fantastic, but in 2015 I was in two car accidents which left me with neck, back, & knee injuries. The lack of movement combined with the medication put all that weight back on and more :s I'm now in a place where I'm able to exercise again and am doing well so far.
    I'm also looking for some friends to keep me in track and make this more fun! :)

    I'm 35, 5'5 and 210. I've been trying to lose weight for what seems like forever. I find I do best when I eat around 1500 but really focus on the nutrition. I tend to always hit the limit on fat and sodium....so I'm working on that. I'm also looking for friends in my same boat for motivation. Feel free to add me as a friend.

    Hi there everyone. I'm back after a few years away (and with a new account since MFP won't let me back into my old one), and I need friends.

    Originally I lost around 104lbs, but have since gained back twenty or so. I'm 5'5, and am currently 194lbs. My UWLG is 155lbs. Exercising isn't a struggle for me--it's the fatty foods. My goal is to also stay away sodium and once again be taken off blood pressure meds.

    hi, back on MFP. Never really stuck to the calorie counting. Im 32 years old, single and a mental health nurse. I struggle with motivation to go to the gym after shifts and to be honest the motivation to cook meals for myself. When i am in the diet and fitness zone i really am dedicated but im just finding it hard to get back in that zone at the moment. definitely an emotional eater and a "i will start tomorrow" kind of girl. I want to break this habit and need support and motivation. Feel free to add me and we can encourage and motivate each other! :smiley:

    Hi all, I'm back and hoping to shift the last 20lbs, but then it'll be the new challenge of maintaining (If I get there!), I'm active on MFP, but find the groups not very active or useful anymore, previously they used to be alive with chat & Motivation, so if you're active and want support etc. feel free to add me :smile:

    Feel free to add me :) I have been using MFP for a bit over a week (downloaded it earlier but never really used it) and became more aware of what and how much I eat. My realistic goal is to loose 25lbs and then either maintain my weight or loose additional 4-6lbs. I have given up sugar, caffeine and most of processed foods, and try to make sure at least 70% of what I eat or apply on my skin is organic and eco-friendly.

    Hi! I've been on and off MFP for years, but I really need to stick to it and actually lose the weight this time. I just returned from a 6 month backpacking trip in New Zealand that was great but it was very eye opening about how much my weight impacts things like hiking and kayaking. I would love to have active MFP friends to help keep me engaged with the app! Feel free to send me a friend request! :)

    Hi my name is Danielle. We have very similar stories. I lost about 80 pounds a few years back using mfp so it definitely does work, unfortunately I had some family issues that got me sidetracked on my fitness goals. I seem to do much better when I eat what mfp says, I also have way more energy to do the exercise I need to do when eating more. I try not to eat the excercise calories if I don't feel like I need them except for maybe 1 day a week I let myself splurge and use more of them than normally. I was having a hard time getting back into this but I seem to be on the right track again now and am starting to lose again. Feel free to add me :)
