    Hey! I've actually been using MyFitnessPal for a while on my iPhone, but I have no friends who use it, so feel free to add me so we can support eachother. Supposedly, adding people will help to motivate you. So it's worth a try, right?!

    from your profile. I can see why your failing.
    "strict dietary regimen." that plus grad school is going to be an epic fail for one of them. I'm glad you are going to be healthy, but don't obsess, you need to graduate too.
  • I'm also new here! I got the app for my phone a few weeks ago, but then I did an update and it erased ALL my apps and I forgot to add MFP again. I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you here and making some new friends feel free to add me and we can swap tips! :smile:

    It motivates me just seeing all the great progess everyone is making! Welcome to the site. It really is helpful. Hopefully it will help you stay on track. I think it makes it fun having friends on here going through the same challenges as we are. Good luck and happy calorie counting!!!!

For me I try to walk at least an hour every day and if I can get a 2nd walk in , its all the more better, Exercise is key ! Best wishes,
