Hi everyone! Looking for new friends

Options
Hey everyone! I'll preface this massive wall of text by saying that if anyone wants to add me as a friend on here, that would be great :) My food diary is public.

This is my second time around on MyFitnessPal, though the first time I was using a different account. I lost about 20 pounds three years ago just from counting calories and walking a bit, but I've unfortunately gained that back plus about 80 pounds due to several major life stressors.

I've tried several times in the last few months to start tracking calories again, but until recently it just hadn't stuck for more than a day or so. However, I finally feel like I'm back in the right headspace for this. I've been consistently using MyFitnessPal for about a week now and I've lost a few pounds already.

I'm finally committed to this for the long haul. I'm eating sensible portions at meals instead of pigging out all day. I'm eating less pre-packaged convenience foods because I can prepare dishes that are better tasting and have less calories.

ANYWAY, sorry for the wall of text. Just wanted to introduce myself and see if any like-minded people wanted to connect so we can motivate and support each other. Again, feel free to add me!

Cheers!

    Hello!! This is my second time around too. I had forgotten all about the app and when I logged in again after a very long time, my previous weight was 215 with a goal of 160. I was shocked because I had almost forgotten that I was at that point. Right now I am 171 and my goal is 120. It was a wonderful reminder that goals do happen and motivation to kick it up a notch and keep going!! If anyone needs a friend or motivator, feel free to add me. I love this journey as hard as it has been. ❤️❤️
