Restarting MFP

hillarysmith0529 · December 2018

I’m back to using MFP and comitting to myself to stick with it until I reach my goal. I had used it previously to help me lose the baby weight 2 years ago but I still have 15-20 lbs I’d like to lose to feel completely comfortable. I’m 5’9 and 172 right now, looking to get back to 155. That’s where I remember feeling best. Happy to have found this board and nice to see so many people using this app 😊

I'm also restarting MFP! I ran a marathon 4 years ago and since then I've been turned just downright sedentary. I haven't run in over 2 years. I just had my physical and my cholesterol is 302 - so depressing! I'm 5'7" and 179. I've gained almost 20 lbs in the last 6 months. My goal weight is 145. I'm an RN too - you'd think I knew better. But knowing and *doing* are 2 different things! Merry Christmas y'all and feel free to friend me!

Hi! I’m also restarting after gaining back about 10 pounds and back to bad eating habits. Hoping a group will help me keep motivated.

Hello! Restarting too! Need to lose 30 pounds

mikepierce55 · December 2018

Hi....just need to lose 10-15 pounds but it's hard, especially around the holidays. We all need encouragement.

Hi!! I should just start!! I never really started tracking food on MFP. I just track my workouts here. I’m rather annoyed by the premium cost. I like FatSecret because the let you track all nutrients for free but their workout tracking is horrible. But I need to have my workouts and food tracking on one app.

I always have the most success when I am tracking my food.

This community seems to be super supportive! I wish you all the best in your health and fitness goals!
I forgot to mention, I need to loose 10 lbs. I’m 5’11” muscular. I should be around 168 lbs, I’m afraid to get on the scales now. I fell off the wagon around Thanksgiving.

Yes MFP made me drop weight Quick, then I ran into gaining again. Looking to get more muscle and even out this body

Same here lol I track my workouts but I need to get back to tracking food again! I hope you’re able to log all your stuff in one place, it definitely makes things easier! Best of luck to you, we can do it 💪 I’ll send a friend request 😊

Welcome back. I'm restarting MFP after 3 years. Feel free to add me!

owlfitness95 · December 2018

Welcome back! I'm restarting too, feel free to add me 😊

I am starting again too. I am considering upgrading to the premium, does anyone have the premium settings and feel it is worth the extra money? I lost about 20 pounds from January to June of last year and have stayed the same but fell off the wagon due to graduate school, parenting, teaching...life! I want to lose twenty-thirty pounds in 2019 and MFP is my go to place for that goal. I need to reboot my exercise and meal planning.
