I am returning after several years away and would love to make some friends here, to give and receive encouragement.

Technically, I can't tell how although a few yrs ago I was able to.

Thanks!

    Yeah, they make it pretty hard...

    The newsfeed is gone, so the friend feature doesn't have the same easy accessibility or friendly banter it used to.

    To "friend" people (on the web version/browser) you have to be able to get to their profile, so find them in the forums, click their name, on the popup click View Profile, then on that page that comes up click on "Myfitnesspal Profile" you'll see a "Add friend" on their actual profile.

    Given that the newsfeed is gone, you might want to check out some of the motivation or challenge threads in these parts of the MFP Community:

    https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/categories/motivation-and-support
    https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/categories/challenges

    If a person can find one(s) that suit them, that can be a way to get give and receive encouragement in the post-newsfeed era. There are various other check-in threads here and there in other parts of the Community, too. Some are focused on a given topic, others on an age group, some focus on exercise activities, etc.

    Best wishes for finding the support you need to succeed!
