    I'm not quite new, but I was gone for quite a while and a lot of my so called friends deleted me in my absence. Life happens. Although that was rude and admittedly it did hurt my feelings, life goes on I suppose. With that said, feel free to add me now that I am back. I have now lost 295 lbs over a 5 year span ( Been trying since March 29, 2014) Reached my original goal, then recently made a new goal :)

    Hello . I am new into the fitness groups now actaully writing down food intake. Plus can only do two exercises from my therapist for now. Having a Rotar Cuff tear and brittle bones. Given Instructions for eating proper by dr. I am 77. So I see there is a group 50+ would be benificial considering others are much younger in other groups and can do the very exercises which I can not do for health problems. I applaud the ladies for being here and testimonies. When I was young and in my 50's. I did what you all do. When you hit 50 to my age. Especially 50. You dont quit you go on the best you canor your bones will be stiff.

    Hi! I quit smoking last year & gained a bunch of weight - like 60 lb. Then a couple days ago, i found out i have high cholesterol (236) and borderline high hemoglobin A1C (blood sugar) so I'm almost diabetic. 48 yr old. Doc said start exercising, increase fruits & veg so that's what I'm doing. Started walking yesterday. Fingers crossed I can keep it up! My plan is to walk every day.

    Hello! I am just joining today, and am determined to gain some weight back from what I lost unhealthily. I will try to eat more, and healthier, as well as exercise efficiently. Good luck on all of you guys' journeys! Edit: Oops.. I realized I posted a reply. You can see how much I use technology haha

    Hi I’m Deb and I’m a newbie
    I’ve been using this app for just over a week and I’ve gained 2lb!!!! I’m mortified. I’ve been under my calorie goal all week and I’ve still gained - I don’t know what I’ve done wrong! Any help would be greatly appreciated- thank you

    My name is Jazzmin and I’m a huge video game nerd that needs to break my lazy habits and become a healthier me. I’m tired of avoiding the mirror and being less social because I’m ashamed of the way I look. I’m here to break the ugly habits I have from the inside out and find the self love I know is inside somewhere it’s just covered by the negativity I can’t seem to shake. So here I am ready to try (again after many attempts) to conquer my goals and break barriers. I’d really love some supportive friends who carry similar struggles so we can do this together. Who’s with me??

    Morning all, so while I have had this app on my phone, I have been halfheartedly using it! I am needing to drop a few kilos and am struggling with the cutting out of sugar, I am not generally a sweet tooth person, but it is more out of habit that I munch on little sweets through the day. Any advise

    Hello, my name is Kiara. I just really want to live a healthier life. I need to establish consistent habits, because I keep getting into these slumps where I'm just gluttonous beyond belief and it makes me feel horrible, physically and mentally.
    So I'm going to try and make incremental and small changes so I can change my life style entirely and permanently.

    Hello. I've had this app for a while, but just started using it. Prior to gaining 100lbs during the past few years, I've never had to worry about my weight. In fact, I had to struggle at times to keep it on. I have no idea how I'm going to do this. I'm terrified I won't be able to lose this weight and have been really hating myself. I know, not helpful. It's the truth, though. I also know I won't succeed if I don't try. I've made it through other very difficult things in my life, so I know it's within in me to make it to the other side of this challenge. I'm glad to be here. I hope I can offer support, not just get it. I'm ready to do this.

    Hey! My name is Allison, and I'm currently recovering from a 2nd full hip arthroscopy. I want to get back to my original weight before surgery, which was 140 pounds. Since running (my usual way of maintaining weight) is off the table for now, I'm using MFP to pay more attention to what I eat. Anyone else with a similar goal?

    Hi everyone I am new here. The doctor introduced me to this app. I am prediabetic, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Obesity runs in my family but I want to be the one that stops it for me and my family. My biggest struggle is Binge eating and stress eating. I also have arthritis in my knees pretty bad and I’m only 52. So walking is a little bit struggle for me.

    Hi,
    I've been in the background for a month or so, and finally decided to jump in with both feet (Bad knees and all!) Still learning how this works, but so far, I'm happy to find a lifestyle I can wrap my brain around. Greatest revelation since starting Keto? "You don't lose to get healthy. You get healthy to lose." - Dr. Berg
