Back and looking for friends and support

Hello - i am back using My Fitness Pal after using some others. My name is Melanie but everyone calls me Mel. Im 48 trying to survive another Minnesota winter - uf dah! Looking for friends that will be supportive to build a network. I am working on increasing my steps and in general move my body more. Im a trauma therapist during the day and want to practice what I preach.

    hi Mel, do you like dad jokes?
    I watched two silk worms race one time.
    It ended up in a tie...

    sorry...

    Hi, Mel, and welcome! I'm over in Michigan, not quite uf dah territory, but some of the same weather challenges!

    If you haven't already done so, maybe check out some of the groups/threads in the Challenges or Motivation parts of the Community? There are lots of different options for participation, motivation and support there, plus it's a good way to meet like-minded MFP-ers who can be good MFP friends. Direct links here:

    I'm not the world's best MFP friend, more of a Community forum gal (and kind of a flake, TBH!). Nonetheless, I'm wishing you much success here!

    Hi Mel. I'm new to MFP as well. I'm still trying to figure out the posting and forums. There are just so many!
    I'm not sure the best thread or forum to keep up with but I would love to have a group of friends to help with motivation. We might have some things in common. My name is Melody 😊 and I'm surviving the winter in NH. I hope you have a great weekend.
