Hi! I’m back after a few years! I know that’s terrible. I’ve been dieting on and off, but thankfully, I am now committed to eating Healthy and exercising! I have lost 14 lbs in about a month! I’m the mother of three beautiful grown children and one precious grand baby! One of my daughters is getting married in June and the engagement was my catalyst to get my self healthy. I want to be happy in the wedding photos, like myself in my dress and enjoy being active with my grand babies! My husband has gotten on board this time, so we are actually kind of having fun this time. Who knew getting healthy could become fun? Logging my food had been beyond helpful and I actually like doing it this time! Most of the friends I had on here before have gone dormant, kind of like it did, so I need new active friends!!

    I'm in the same situation as you. Haven't been on here a while but decided that I want to get more healthy after turning 50 this year. My kids are both grown and in college now so I don't have to worry about making two dinners any longer since they definitely don't need to diet at all. I was really thin in high school and college but after having babies the weight just kind of crept up on me. Stress of kids, daily life etc... I realized last year that I weigh more now than I did when I was pregnant with my son which really depressed me. So I'm glad to have some friends to share my journey.

    Hey all! Looking for friends myself. I gained a lot of weight due to undiagnosed hypothyroidism. I'm working hard to get back to being healthy so I can be more active and feel better.
    Before MFP, I was kinda tricking myself. I wasn't as accountable for my health as I should have been. This has been a great tool so far. Looking for others who struggle sometimes and can benefit from mutual encouragement!
    I'm proud to say that while I haven't lost much weight since beginning MFP 19 days ago, I'm feeling better and getting stronger!
    Add me if you'd like!

    Cheers from Champaign, Illinois!

    Feel free to add me everyone. I just started tracking again and my diary is open to friends. Not sure how much it could inspire meal ideas since I do omad (one meal a day) but it's open to keep me accountable.
