    Getting started with myfitnesspal and would welcome some new friends.

    The interaction with others on this same journey helps to motivate.

    I'm a 55 year old man. I'm a husband, a son, a brother, a father and a grandfather (and father to a black lab).

    I'm working to lose 50 pounds by the end of the year (2019), and 70 pounds by Easter (2020).

    Why I want to get in shape: Getting older + Obesity = Predictable health risks that I need to avoid.

    I've seen so many of my friends and relatives suffering from obesity related illnesses. The time is now for me to do something about my weight and my fitness.

    Hi, new at this again but determined. I have lots and lots to loose. Could use some buddies in the same boat. I'm at 340+ lbs right now. Don't really have a goal weight yet because I'm not thinking I want to weigh a certain amount, but for now short term I want to get under 300lbs for my BIG 50th bday in Sept. It's doable because I have so much weight to lose. I just want to be healthy, I have bad ankle can't do much cardio but I started looking at videos I can do at home.

    I know where you're coming from. I weighed in at 325 lbs on Thursday and I started doing walks on the weekends with a friend of mine who is helping to keep me on track. It's so hard. This is the heaviest I have ever been and I'm hoping to be healthier

    Trying to get healthy. Have a long way to go. Hard to make the lifestyle changes I need to stay alive. Hoping this app keeps me accountable to some degree.

    ME TOO! I want to cut about 20- 30 lbs! This is for accountability because it is ALWAYS CALORIES IN vs. CALORIES OUT

    Starting out with a fresh mind! Hoping to keep motivated & find positive influences among the community. I have struggled with programs in the past & with maintaining a positive view of my current body image, but have decided to love who I am currently while starting to gain control through setting healthy & realistic goals with support from like minded individuals! The hardest step is the first step, but I’m excited to start the adventure!

    Hello. Had the app for a long time, but didn't use it at all.
    First time ever I'm truly motivated to lose this weight, first time ever my BMI is on a line between overweight and obese, big wake up call.

    Tried doing keto for two weeks, and I hate it, want to find a way to eat good and quality food without following any strict diet, any suggestions?

    I'm a 55 year old man and getting started back on MFP. I used the app a few years back and had some success, but dropped off and re-gained. Now working to lose 50 pounds by year-end.

    Hope to add a few friends so I can be motivated by your success.

    Getting older + obesity = a number of predictable health related risks. Time to take some action now before I end up with the knees and the back and the hip problems I see in others my age who are also carrying around too much weight.

    Hey y'all
    Currently working to overcome some disordered eating habits and negative thoughts I've been facing for a while.
    I'm hoping to become healthier physically and mentally. I really want to have a healthy relationship with food that doesn't involve guilt, shame, or anxiety. Hoping that this app can help with that.
    I've been a competitive swimmer for a while and genuinely enjoy exercise- I'm just going to continue working on having a healthier relationship with diet and exercise. I'd like to lose weight, but hope to do so gradually and in a positive way.
    It would be cool to meet people who have similar experiences with BDD and eating disorders, maybe we could help each other stay on track and brave the storm together!

    Hello everyone, 66 years old,4.11 and without too much trouble climbed to 160lbs in recent years. Looking to get to 126 as a start.
    I'm down to 151 after about 6 weeks working at it. I'm looking for motivation to get myself onto the treadmill for 30mins per day. It sits in the bedroom and I just can't get into getting on the damn thing. I try doing it for 5min slots 3 times a day but then I give up after about 3 days. Must be more consistent
