Hi all! I'm kinda new to fitness pal. I joined a while back and just couldn't get into logging everything. I would forget or feel too embarrassed.

I hopped on the scale the yesterday and felt horrible by what I saw. I've been struggling with my weight for some time now but I just can't get motivated to do anything about it. I eat out a lot and never want to make time to work out.

I saw some of the results from people using MFP and I was inspired.

Now I just need motivation and support. Friends would be nice :)

    Keep your diary private and log on everyday. We all have bad days but it doesn't mean stop. It is a learning process. Welcome and good luck.

    I am new too. I got the app for fitness pal in July and stoppedmostly because I got busy and lazy. My daughter has high functioning autism and we have her on a gluten free-dairy-free diet. You would think I would be skinny but I am not. I know ridiculous amounts about food, nutrition and exercise but I stress eat. I owm my own buisness with my husband, too. Anyway life sucks and cookies taste good. Even gluten-free, dairy- free ones.

    Sent a request if you are interested in adding me. Would love to help you stay motivated while getting back into things. It is always nice and easier when we have the support of others going through the same things as us! Keep your head up and you will get where you want to be!

    I'm also back for a second time and really want to stick to it this time.

    I have a new hobby riding horses and i want to be alot thiner to do it and get some confidence in myself.

    But would also likes some help and in couragement also which I'm sure i will get here.

    I eat when i shouldn't like everyone else and trying to stop that and make better choices. My trouble is i don't like alot of veg and they don't like me.

    Any advice would be appreciated and if i had some friends i think that would help also.

    Thanks,
