    Hello all, I have been on the app for almost six weeks and I decided to try this section of the app today. I have tried WW a few times but have never kept with it. Was diagnosed with high blood pressure six weeks ago and have had to make some life changes. Have lost 18lbs so far. This app has helped me a lot.

    As a personal trainer/group fitness instructor, I always recommend this app as a method of nutritional accountability. However, I haven`t practised what I preach and ignored doing so myself. I feel it is quite hypocritical to ask someone to do something that I wouldn`t do. Therefore, I have decided to begin a calorie-counting regime, which I believe will help me lose those pesky extra kilo or three. Best of luck to everyone out there!

    Hi,
    I’m a serial re-starter but after baby no.2 I’m finally determined enough to get back to where I was most comfortable for good.
    16/70 lbs down using the Fast 800.
    Looking for any friends with similar goals. Please add me

    Hello peoples! Let's do this. :smile:

    I've done really well in the past with Weight Watchers - long time ago. The new plans don't seem to work for me. So here I am on MFP.

    I just started yesterday. I've done some meal prep & set small goals. I want to focus more on my health than on actual weight loss. But of course weight loss is amazing as well.

    Good luck to everyone out there doing this thing!

    Hello! I'm new to this site: Joined yesterday.

    Back in January I was 142 pounds and overweight for the first time. Both my mom and my husband have been telling me I need to lose weight and get in shape again. I've slacked off. Today, I'm 133 pounds and want to get to 125 which is a nice weight on me, (any less and I start to look gaunt.)

    I've been working out but not really giving it my all TBH. I need to step it up. So I'm posting my YouTube workouts on another thread hoping that helps keep me accountable.

    Hope to meet some nice ppl! Wishing everyone lots of luck. <3

    Hi! I’m back after a long absence. I live in SW Pennsylvania and I’m 65 years old.

    The pandemic kind of kicke my butt and I gave up all my health and fitness activities.

    I just heard from my new doctor that I now have diabetes! Sh&t just got real!

    I used to walk miles a day and I lost almost 40 pounds. However, now I have really bad pain problems - arthritis etc. Abe I can hardly walk now.

    My dad passed in December and I’m depressed.

    I’m determined to get healthy and get rid of the diabetes.

    I welcome messages.

    Ciao!

    Exercise. It's good for depression, losing weight, stretching and rehabbing arthritic joints, etc, etc. Find small things like very short walks, chair exercises, and more that you both can and will do. The key is to get started and never quit. I know what you mean about diabetes scaring the heck out of you. In April of 2014 my a1c was over 13 and I was put on two meds just for that immediately. Eight years down the road and I'm at 5 or 5.1 on the a1c and the meds have been gone for four years. Don't hesitate... I nearly lost a retina to it. The arthritis is very mild these days along with great improvement of symptoms from a long list of other ailments. Consistency and persistence are the keys. Never give up! 👍
