Experienced with the app, new to community

Love the diary feature, never really explored the community section!

I enjoy high volume foods, getting my protein, and reasonable amounts of exercise! I'm currently down about 70 pounds, and still have about 45 to go

Open to more friends and accountability buddies, willing to discuss the app and ways to make tracking easier

    Hi everyone! Now exploring the App and trying to know more information that would help me in my health journey. Hopefully this will greatly help me in reaching my goals.

    welcome to MFP!

    There’s a great Volume Eating thread here. Either search for it, or some kind person will post it for you.

    Friends have no particular benefit anymore. We had a lovely private friends Newsfeed for years, but MFP killed it off for “lack of use” (I call BS on that one) but later cited expenses involved in maintaining it.

    If you get friends requests now, they’re going to be from crypto or romance scammers. The last 40 requests I’ve receive, only ONE has been from a legit user, and sorry dude, I don’t have time to do private messages with you or anyone else.

    Your best bet is getting support from other users here in the boards. The regulars are awesome, and we’d love to add you to the pool.

    more like circling, babe. Ready for the “pig butchering”.

    Google it if you’re not familiar with the term. Yikes !
