    Hi all, looking for like minded friends, I’m on a mission to loose 20lbs. Currently dealing with a little stall in form of a sprained ankle, but I won’t let it stop me.

    Come say hello, let’s chat, motivate each other and reach our goals!

    Hello from Texas!
    I am technically not new but it has been YEARS since I’ve been here.
    I am a 68 woman with diabetes and a strong aversion to exercise!
    Would love to connect with a supportive group who is not afraid to kick my butt when I need it. I agree to do the same but I will also celebrate your successes and maybe even make you smile!

    Hello. I’m Kristine…. Just joined recently, app is nice. It’s given me insight to what I’m not getting enough of and vice versa. I recently suddenly put on almost 30lbs when I quit smoking and am having a really hard time getting rid of it. Tried on my own but I didn’t seem to eat enough so when I would exercise I didn’t have enough energy…. So here I am. ☺️

    Hi everyone I’m not actually new to this I’m just restarting and recommitting. I’ve done this a million times but I’ve never stuck with it. I’ve literally never been a normal weight so I don’t have anything to miss? I’m just trying to know what it feels like to be healthy and confident. Would love some new friends and support.

    Hi- I'm N. and I am 54. Have recently finished 5 years of cancer meds, and attributed that to most of my weight gain. But it's been a few months being done and and my weight is the same. So it's time to set better priorities on what I eat, how much, and doing more exercise. What I was doing before isn't working so it's time to do differently! Looking forward to being inspired by other people's victories, and having some of my own!

    I lost 30 pounds doing weight watchers over the past 15 months or so, but I have been stuck trying to lose the last 5-8 pounds. I decided to work based on calories to push though the last few pounds.

    Hi Everyone! I'm Melda, nice to e-meet everyone.

    I have been struggling on and off with my weights since little, and gained 5+ kilos or 11+ pounds in just few short months. I have lost 2 kilos / 4.4 pounds in the last 2 weeks by watching my macros. Keeping my macros on track has done wonders for me so far. I am eating a lot, and so far maintaining a good energy level throughout the day, while the weights have been effortlessly dropping off.

    I just posted about this in Health and Weight Loss section (Keeping my Macros on track has done wonder for me! 2 kilos, 2 weeks, eating a lot!). I need to warn you that it is a long(er) reading though. Hope that it can be beneficial for you.

    Let's stay strong! We can do this!

    looking for other fitness addicts to try get rid of those last few problem pounds. I want to eat healthy... Train hard, but enjoy life at the same time.... I can't stick to diets, and enjoy chest days too much. Looking for motivation and to help others motivate themselves with tips whilst eating (every little helps) and training routines / tips to help balance out a 'non strict diet' lifestyle. Let's go.

    Hey everyone! I’m new (again) after taking a couple years off. I have never been great at consistency but motivated to stick with it this time. I lost 40 pounds last fall and gained it all back this spring 🙄 so working to lose that 40 and then another 40 at least. I work as a school nurse and am busy with four school age kiddos so fitting in exercise is a challenge and I have very little will power when it comes to food, especially sweets. Feel free to add me, I love rooting people on and being encouraging!

    Not new, been here 3 months now. Looking to share diaries with you. I’m burnt out on the foods I’ve been eating. Looking for what’s been working for you!

    Over 50, need to lose 100lbs, and just trying to walk that line between mindfulness about what I’m putting in my body and not falling into too much focus on calorie/scale watching.
    Focusing on macros and would love to see diaries of anyone with a handle on high protein. Also a huge fan of AG1 so maybe some connections there?

    Hi, I am new to this bit of MFP, but I was informed today when I popped in that I joined MFP 7 years ago. In that time things have changed for me and whereas then I was just using it to track foods, I now own a Garmin, so I am considering paying Premium to take advantage of the whole MFP experience.

    Incidentally I have been doing reformer Pilates for over 4 years and I have a mini gym at home where I have weights and bands. I have lost some weight and have more to lose which I am aiming for while continuing to work on my body.

    it would be great if anyone can tell me what they like or dislike about the connectivity between Garmin and MFP while being a Premium member.

    Hello there,
    I am new here. I started using this app last week, and I finding it helpful.
    Does anyone know how to get the calories burned synced with your my fitness pal app and the Apple health app? It says I’ve burned over 65 cal today on the Health app, but on the MyFitnessPal app, it says on there exercise 19.
