Hi Guys,

My names Stephanie & im fairly new to My Fitness Pal but im loving it already :happy:

I have been trying to lose abit of weight for a while now but always end up stopping and not sticking to a plan but so far I have been ontop of filling in my daily food intake & exercise. I know that it is a lifestyle change that I need to make and just a fad diet.

I would be very grateful for any tips and friends to keep me motivated.

Steph x

    Welcome!! Nice to see anther UK member!! I've been using MFP since June/July and found it really useful. It's less soul destrying than going to WW or SW etc and the fact you can track your exercise is making me move more and really think abut what I'm eating. I had a bad month last month so only really getting back on track this month but I'm determined to get back to what I was a few years ago. Add me if u like and good luck :-)

    Hi Stephanie
    I'm in London too and have been using MFP since June. It's really worked for me. I started using it for the calorie counting but what with everyone chatting about their exercise routines I found myself getting more active too which I'm sure has helped with the weight loss, as well as leaving me feeling better about myself than I have in a long time.

    Welcome Steph!

    I joined ages ago, but have only started using MFP properly for the last 2 weeks, and it's really working for me! Add me as a friend for some motivation if you like :) x

    Hey!

    I'm from Kent, UK so not that far away! I haven't been using MFP properly for long, but in the time that I have been using it, it really has been a massive help! The community here is awesome as well, there's nothing like a bit of encouragement from friends to keep you motivated :)

    Good luck in achieving your goals :D

    Hi from NW London!! I've not been doing this long but love the people here. We all have different starting points and different goals. But the encouragement and commemts I have been getting are a very real help. And on top of that commenting on others progress is a constant reminder that I have to keep focussed myself. Enjoy and make new friends. And good luck!!!! :-D
