New Here…

Hi guys,
My name is Krystal and I live in Alabama. I’m new to MFP. I was diagnosed last week with prediabetes and have started using MFP to better track my carbs after being told I need to stick to a low carb, high protein diet. I currently have a goal of losing 30lbs by October because we are planning a family trip to Universal. My ultimate weight loss goal is 120lbs. I have a long way to go but would love to connect with some people on MFP to help motivate, inspire, and join me.

    Hi Krystal
    I’m Sherine I’ve been using MFP for keto/low carb and I’ve lost 52 lbs since September 2020. I’m 5’1 currently 171 with a goal of 145, starting weight 223. I’ve been doing it with my sister but I’d love to have even more people to connect with. 🙂

    Hi everyone. I am also new. :smile: My current wt 186 lbs( or less), and goal wt is 140. I do not weight myself often. I like to go by the way my clothes fit to know if I'm going in the right direction. I am diabetic and take oral medication daily for it.Since starting my weight loss journey in June 2021 my blood sugar numbers are much improved.
