great work! am back again MVP' s a great resource and FREE.. for me it's all in the logging and of course the friends we meet along the way..

Awesome job! I started off January kind of rocky, but I'm getting more consistent and hope to start to see the scale drop. I have a goal of 40 pounds gone by September (girls trip to Vegas.) I'm going to send you a friend request.

I'm doing the same as you - I can't say I'm following WW - but I go every Saturday for a weigh in - and we have a great leader- so much of our meetings is about staying focused and dealing with difficult eating situations- so that works no matter how you journal your food diary. I had a great January as well - down 6.2 for the month! Congrats on your great start for 2023!

Way to go! I started my weight loss journey Jan 3rd. I lost 14 pounds in 5 weeks. I am on a roll and so motivated to keep at it. Logging into MFP every day; entering food to track macros. I love having this tool is great!! Would love to connect with some people who are working on weight loss through this platform

I, too have used WW and dropped the weight only to regain it!!! ALL. So disappointing! However, I am determined to make MFP work for me. AND, I need LOTS of accountability. Looking forward to hooking up with others.

@kissingalyssa and @Mazzadan I sent you a request, I think. I thought I responded to this already, sorry. You've got this!

@mermaidnj I'm all about the community. I used to have a decent following on Instagram - surrounded myself with people who were documenting their journeys. I don't want to do that anymore, but I miss a community. Definitely looking to build a support system here.

@dmsl977 February has been rocky for me so far. I keep sabotaging myself with restaurant foods. You'd think I'd have learned by now. *facepalm* 40 lbs. in 7 months is reasonable I think. You can do it!

@MFPWiggles Maybe I'll go weigh in at WW for some love and applause. Hahaha! I'm down like 10 lbs since my last weigh in there. Get me a little charmy-charm.

Great work on last months loss!

That's fantastic! I just signed up and excited to start, but I don't know how all of this works. Does anyone know if there are tuturorial videos on how to use the app and where to log your daily food intake?

I too am focused only losing 30 by mid June. WW just isn't working for me. I even tracked both it and MFP for a while. Accountability partner? County me in.

Me too. WW for a long time. Was working but they change it so often and my progress stalls or goes backwards. So I started double tracking and my calories were way off. I was “on point” and my calories exceeded my bmr.
After a couple weeks of watching this I dropped WW. And picked up MFP premium and I’m back on track. 2lbs a week consistently. Watching macros.
WW was just not working for me anymore.

@meagle60 Are you using the phone app or the computer? I don't know about tutorial videos, but I can try to answer questions. On a computer, click the "food" tab, then "add food" under each meal. On the app, you can click "diary" at the bottom to add foods.

@slumberbug Yes! Add me. I have trouble adding people from my computer.

@KPro78 Exactly. Every time I start to figure out a routine, they change the plan. Plus I can easily overeat the free fruits. Do you think premium is worth it? I'm still on the free version.

I am back on the MFP bandwagon after a few years. Had my 3rd child. Became too sedentary in a new job. Riding the struggle bus, for sure! I used to watch my diet better and exercise routinely and my body craved that again. I weighed myself a few days ago and last time I saw that number I was pregnant. It was a gut check! I logged back into MFP that night! For the past 2 days, I have been up at 5am exercising for 30 minutes before everyone is up and out the door for work/school, and now that it's warming up, I also walk in the evenings. My goal is to lose 30lbs before my 40th birthday in July. Totally up for some healthy living/weight loss buddies if anyone is interested! :-)

I just dropped WW and hope for better success with MFP. I like knowing my macros and calories. It's also easier to track in MFP. I am not premium and not sure exactly what the difference is other than the barcode.
Accountability partners would be helpful.
