Comment here if you want more friends!!

Hello, I need to be motivated every day. 😄

Everybody needs more friends!!! Everyone lets all add each other for motivation!!! 😀 I certainly need accountability from people!!! Hi friends!!! Hope your having a fantastic Friday!!!

I took a break for a while, but now I’m ready to get back on track. I can’t believe how much MFP has devolved. Having a newsfeed and friends really helped with motivation. I don’t follow a typical approach with most things, so I also used the profile to jot down personal notes for myself. It was much easier than going back through specific food diary entries, especially when I was trying to track varieties for my goal of 30 different foods a week to support gut health.
From a business perspective, it doesn’t make sense either. Previously, they had a unique selling point, but now they’re not much different from other apps, except for being slightly more user friendly, though less visually appealing. It’s only a matter of time before the competition catches up. They’ve lost the sense of community, and, on top of that, the personal touch of having a profile to use as you liked.

My goal is to cut down on sugar. Eat more varieties and get more exercise 😊

I never really used MFP before, but I am struggling to find out the optimal way to use this app socially. I mean, I can count my calories and that's great, but how can we use the app to find like minded people, to get accountability or even just to share some progress ?

I feel that I can't search for groups as I don't know anyone, I try to read the most active topics but I have yet found the opportunity to jump in something. I've been sending some friend requests, but I see now that they don't really add much.

Is there an use case I am missing ?

Like you, I’m still figuring out how to make the most of it since the changes. It was definitely much better socially before. You could complete your diary for the day and choose to make your entry viewable to friends. Their exercise's would also show up on our newsfeed, which encouraged interaction and feedback. I don’t typically join forum discussions because they feel so open. Interacting on my newsfeed felt much less intimidating. Honestly, I’m not even sure what happens when you add friends on here now. I don’t have any yet! 😂

Hiii! I’m new to this whole journey some motivating friends would be awesome! 🤗
