Hey there, my name is Melody, and my goal weight is to lose between 98-103 pounds. I started in March, but I don't have many friends on here and would like to keep myself coming back. I have lost 47 pounds so far, so I'm almost halfway through my weight loss journey. Feel free to add me if you're losing 10 pounds or 100. I would like some upbeat and encouraging people to make losing weight fun with. =]

    Hi Melody,
    I'm actually new. I put this app on my phone a year ago just to play with it but never used it to work on my weight loss. I joined slimgenics a week ago and this site seems perfect for keeping track of what I'm doing. Anyway, I live in Littleton, CO and have only about 23 total lbs to lose. I've lost 5 so far. Slimgenics is predicting my weight loss will be complete in December. Then I go to the balance and maintenance portions of the plan. On my plan we don't actually count calories, but we count foods by portions, and there's a specific structure to it. (Ie: 2 Starches, 4 Veggies, 1 fat, 2 proteins, etc... each day) What type of plan are you on? Nice job on your 47 lb loss! That's fantastic!

    Feel free to add me too!

    Wow, you're doing great and I admire your positive attitude and resolve. I gained 88lbs with my last pregnancy, so far I've lost 78lbs. I have another 10lbs to lose before I'm back to my pre pregnancy weight. My goal is to reach 135 by my son's first bday on Dec. 20. I joined this site about a month or so ago. It's a great tool. Feel free to add me.

    Hello,
    I'm new to MFP. I have lost over 100 pounds so far and I'm down to the lat 16. I was looking for a site that I could track my daily food as I transition and maintain my weight loss. This looks like a great site with much support. Glad to be here.

    Hi! I plan on losing at least 30-40 pounds. In addition to that I really want to tone up.
