in Motivation and Support
I've been weight training and watching my calorie intake for about 4 weeks. I have lost around 8lbs (though the number isn't really what I'm chasing). I would love to have other newcomers to talk with about motivation and obstacles to achieving goals.

    Hey, I've started my journey 2 months ago and so far have managed to lose 8kg. Add me to friends if you'd like to talk.

    I will be glad to interact. I am finding it hard being in a house of people that don't need to died or get healthy.
    I think you are doing great 8 lbs is a good start. Keep concentrating on what you did to get this far and you will succeed.

    Looks like we have several new people that have commented. Welcome.
    I would like to try and keep up with you all. I have been doing a lot of reading on how to achieve my goal.
    1. Eliminate distractions
    2. Focus on what needs to be done.
    3. Have a plan
    4. Start each morning reviewing your plan and go for it (one day at a time!

    Hi, I just started myfitnesspal today!! I'm considering getting the premium plan. Does anyone else have that and does anyone live in Florida?

    Thanks for the kind words everyone! Pants are fitting more loosely by the day, and seeing the progress is extremely motivating!

    I am just starting too! Nice work on the 8 lbs. I would like to lose 30. Hoping to do 10 in a month for my anniversary, I want to feel accomplished and proud of myself for it.

    I am restarting after almost 2 years of being really bad with my diet and exercise. I am on day 5 and going strong.
