I stumbled across "my fitness pal" this morning and I'm already hooked. I'm usually easily swayed into bad eating habits when I'm around my friends or boyfriend and I hope this will deter me from continuing to do so. I'm excited to see how MFP will effect my lifestyle!

    Welcome! This site is totally addictive, but in a good way. You won't be able to not loose any unwanted pounds by being apart of MFP. :) You can add me as a friend if you like.

    me too! I just downloaded this app yesterday. I do well when i'm alone or on a schedule, but I struggle around my boyfriend and family, who all eat with reckless abandon! Hopefully this works will help.
  • Hi. My friend has lost weight through this and highly recommends it.
    I love food. I eat when I am bored happy and sad. I have found fitness pal really good because I stop and think that maybe a bit of this and a bit of that is extra calories I dont have to spare. I also feel guilty and worried about what fitness pal will think of me for entering too many calories. :D
    I try to do at least an hour of heavy cardio 5 times a week. I've been doing 80 minutes (5 times a week) recently though and adding weights every other day.

    I wish you all the best. My only suggestion to you is DON'T EVER GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!! Finish the Journey !!! :flowerforyou:
  • Hello, I have only just started yesterday and its really making me think before I eat as I am recording everything that goes in my mouth and its suprising how many cals you can clock up, so here goes to a good weight loss in next few weeks :) xx

    That's awesome! I love meeting people that enjoy running as well. It took me awhile to get going. It's nice to meet someone who's new at this. Feel free to add me!! Maybe we can motivate each other!

    Good luck!
