Welcome New Members!

Hi 👋 I’m Georgina I’m 25 and from the UK I started my journey 5 weeks ago and I’m currently 18lbs down, looking to make new friends please feel free to add me I post daily and always here for a chat

I've been using MFP for a while now but only started tracking macros accurately in the last 12 weeks. I've lost 10kg and seen a huge change in my life. I've been inspired to start a YouTube channel to track my fitness journey over the next couple of years and hopefully help other people on fitness journeys of their own! I'd really appreciate it if anyone wanted to check it out & support me by subscribing:

Best of luck on your journey and I hope to see you over on YouTube some time!

Hey everyone

Been around a while but just gone premium. Having no luck losing weight at all. Tried just calorie counting, now trying insanity and gaining weight and inches.

Feeling really upset and hoping the groups here can offer some advice and help!

I'm 30 years old and horribly obese, but due to years of competitive swimming still have a decent fitness level. I'd love to get in shape or even just drop a couple of Jean sizes.

Thanks all!

Same condition with me

Yeah.. am new here hello everybody just wanna stay fitness... l love gym

Veronica here! I’ve utilized this app before, lost lots of weight, fell off and now I’m back. This turn around, I’m more focused on educating myself on healthy and clean habits....more so than just losing weight. Please feel free to add me or hit me up. I’m always down to chat.

Hey everyone. new account for the new year
Helping people to achieve their fitness and wellness goals is a passion of mine.
to keep to party going, i would to give a free personal traning plan (4 weeks ) to someone who is really in need of a personal trainer but can't afford one. or in need of someone to push them to the next level both physically mentally. i would do it for free to help reduce the stress we're dealing with nowdays

Just starting ugh nervous and excited at sams time

I am just starting out to how is it going for you so far!!

Add me please! 😄😄

Hey I’m back rejoining after a break. Motivated to go for it! 👍👍

I used MFP some years ago. I was doing wonderful and then I had to have my thyroid removed due to 2 types of cancer. I struggled with getting my TSH levels right and when I didn’t have insurance I didn’t have my meds. Without them I got very sick and gained a lot of weight. I went into myxedema crisis 3 times. The third time I was on my meds but they weren’t being absorbed due to other reasons. I ended up having to have a hysterectomy due to uterine cancer. Around that time I developed diabetes. I was sent to the ER with a sugar level of 775. I was also at my all time high weight of around 450. That was the turning point for me. I put myself on a diet and stuck to it. My goal was to no longer need insulin. I lost 150 pounds in 3-4 months, following my doctors advice. It was not a good way to lose it. I ended up having to have my gallbladder removed but since it was classified as a difficult gallbladder they could only remove part of it. It’s been about 18 months and I am down to 220ish. A lot of it is skin that will have to be removed when I hit my goal weight but that’s for the future. For now I get to focus on having the remaining part of my gallbladder removed. It has been giving me problems and causing me to not eat properly. I go in tomorrow to talk to the surgeon. My goal weigh is and always has been 150. I haven’t been that weight since I was 12. I’m currently lighter than I have ever been in my adult life and only have 70 lbs left to lose. I know to some that seems a lot but when your goal was 300 lbs at first it seems like nothing. Also, I have been off of insulin for the past 14 months. My sugar levels never go over 120 after meals and is usually around 80-90 when fasting. It’s been quite a journey so far and I still have a way to go but the end is finally in sight.

Hi there. Had this app since July last year. I've shed 4 stone and feel so much better. Hit a bit of a plateau at the moment, but I'm keeping with it so I don't start gaining it back. And the exercise is great for my mental health...

Hey everyone ☺️
I’m from the Uk and have been on and off here for many years, I’ve put some Chunk back on and lost my mojo for exercising 😭 working with the NHS during all this pandemic has definitely made me a bit lazy when it comes to food and burning the calories but I’ve decided that I can’t make anymore excuses so I’m ready 💪🏼 This mfp community helped me so much last time with tips, support and honesty!

Hi everyone! I’m back using MFP after about 2 years off. Had really good results using this last time. But I’ve let things slip and gained it all back plus extra. Looking forward to engaging with the MFP community and getting fitter/healthier! Good luck all!

Hi RosaKitty! Exactly the same here! Let's hope we can stick with it this time! I've only been back a week, lost 1kg (small win!) and still go very up and down with my food and exercise but it does feel good to feel the progress and benefits! Good luck and enjoy the small wins 😊
