in Introduce Yourself
Hello to all,
I'm new to fitness pal. I joined some time ago, but never logged on much. I really like the food log. I have been using it everyday this week. Just started the couch25K plan...I have never ran in my life...It is a very strange thing to do..
Looking to find some new online freinds and really make it to my goal in the next 4months...

Hope to talk to some of you soon..

Jane

    Welcome to MFP!!!! I love the food tracker too, but I have been slacking the past month on log in on it. I have the app on my phone so I have no excuse! Please feel free to add me. I find the more friends you have the better motivation I seem to have. My MFP family keeps me going some days.

    Good luck with the running!

    Welcome! This site is a great tool to help you reach your goals. Motivation from friends with mutual weight loss goals is a must for me.

    I've been logging the minutes I walk and run separately. For example: 7 minutes running at 6.0 and 18 minutes walking at 3.5. It's a bit annoying to do but at least it will be accurate.

    You should really sign up for a 5k in a few months to support a charity you love. It will keep you motivated!
