Saying hello to the community for the first time!

Since starting my membership in April, I haven't spent much time searching around for much on the app, and this is the first time I've logged onto the desktop version. Haha. I just realized there's a community, so I'm saying hello! I'll be 55 this July and I am determined to be back to 155 lbs. in my 55th year of life! I would love to have a little group of other women in similar circumstances to connect with - it would make the app so much more fun! I used Noom for a while with success, so I became accustomed to a lot of small-group connections. My friend said, "MyFitness Pal is better!" So. I'm here now and hoping for some camaraderie... here's hoping! Nice to meet y'all!

    Hello, everybody. Over 60, vegetarian here, looking for friends of any age and lifestyle. I love to exercise by walking in nature and want to lose 10-15 pounds or so I can stay off meds and fit back in my favorite jeans.

    I also came here from
    Noom recently. At 68 I started Noom and took off 48 pounds. After the shakeup in Noom, and with an unsatisfactory group, I came here. Wow! The community is so much better here.

    Now I’m working on another 5-10 pounds, but also finding ways to build strength. Search here for Noom and you will find others.
