Hi
I’m an Aussie gal in my early 50s who needs to lose 35 kg. Am I like you? Who wants to join my tribe so we can support each other on this challenging road?

Hi StolzM91 !
Welcome to my tribe. Where are you from? What’s your goal? Proud of myself today as I walked for 1.5 hrs around a lake, something I haven’t done in a very long time. Had to stretch afterwards though so I can move tomorrow lol. Still getting used to this app and how to use it.1 -
Hello! I am also an Aussie girl, early 50’s, need to lose about 19 kilos. Currently watching the same half kilo go up and down. Very annoying!
(Could that be Lake Burley Griffin, nieshynoo1?)1 -
Hi! Welcome to the tribe! Tell me about it with the half kilo thing. So frustrating. I’m in Victoria, so just a local lake. I have walked along Lake Burley-Griffin once though. Where are you from?0

I am from the NSW South Coast, but Canberra is pretty close.
*Just did an Aqua Aerobics class. Great! But now I am very hungry...0 -
Love water so aqua aerobics would be fun. Haven’t done a class since my 20’s, although I used to swim. Exercise definitely make you hungrier. Harder to be strict after a workout!1

I'm from Melbourne and definitely would love to be in 😊1

I’m in rural NSW 😊
I’m in my mid-30s and have a LOT to lose (thanks, PCOS!). But I’m down just on 9kg so far just from tracking my calories here and increasing my activity. I like to walk and swim, and I love doing yoga.1 -
I'm 31 and living in Christchurch, New Zealand. I need to lose about 55kg.2

Hi cyaneverfat
Welcome New Zealand! Glad to have you in my tribe. We’ve got a lot to lose but we can do it.2 -
Hi Twisted Sasette
Welcome to my tribe. 9kgs lost is great! I love walking and swimming too. I’m walking as my main way to lose weight but I love swimming and yoga, although I haven’t done those for a while.0 -
Hi Everyone,
My name is Maree, I am also from Melbourne.
I started my weightloss journey in Oct 2019 with Weight Watchers. I lost just over 40kg by October 2020. Then my health deteriorated and family issues caused a lot of stress. The wheels pretty much fell off until last week. I gained 13kg back between October and March, I need to turn things around before ai undo all my hard work. I decided to try out MFP (pretty disgusted in WW and the way they treated staff and customers through covid).
On Monday I had a hysterectomy and pelvic floor/prolapse repair. Hopefully this will solve most of the health issues that derailed me. I feel like my head is back in the game. It is going to be slow going as I am limited in what activity I can do for the next few months but I know if I stay in top of my food and just move as much as I can the weight will drop.
I turn 40 in October and would love to be close to where I was last October by then.
Looking forward to getting to know you all and cheering you on to succeed.
Cheers

Hi Maree! I only just saw your post here. I didn’t get a notification so not sure why. Welcome! I’m from Melbourne too, in my early 50’s. I’ve done the Weight Watchers thing before too but a long time ago. Still have the books so I use the recipes sometimes. I too have lost weight and put it back on. This time I want to do it without commercial help...just tracking what I eat and exercising. I’m only walking as I have lower back pain and hip/pelvic pain so nothing too taxing until I drop more weight. Happy to be of support on this journey 🙂1

Hi everyone, I think MFP is doing weird things. I have friended some of you that are new to this discussion thread but can't seem to see any of your posts on here or on the main newsfeed. Hope you're all still alive lol. I know others have found this happening to them. Someone please post here so I know you're still there??0

@nieshynoo1 I'm here, I was off for a couple of weeks as recovery wasn't going to well. Back now though and trying to get my head in the right space.1
