I'm hoping that this website along with its app will help me keep track of my food and workouts. So far I love it :)

I'm 26 and need some weight (ok maybe a lot of weight) to lose. I have I'm hopeful 2012 will be a healthy year for me. My long time goal will be to lose 50lbs.

    My iPhone brought me here too- around 4 months ago and it has been a revelation for me!

    I have never managed to stick to anything until I found Myfitnesspal but this is so easy and so motivating that I am nearly at my goal in only a short amount of time! I now weigh what I did when I was 18 years old and loving it!

    Keep going- 2012 will be tha year of change for you! x

    I also downloaded this app onto my iphone four months ago and its honestly the best thing ever. I really don't know how I'd get on now with trying to loose weight without this tool. x

    Like everyone else on this thread, pretty much, my IPhone brought me here in early November 2011 and I haven't looked back since. :smile:

    I downloaded the Android app to my new tablet just 2 days ago. Going to search it out for my iPhone too so I can add things whilst I'm at work or out and about. Not got much weight to lose really but I work shifts so want a healthier lifestyle!

    My android found this when I looked for diet apps. Also someone from one of my google+ circles had "plussed" it. That was kind of a deciding factor for me.

    I'm glad you found this app! I stumbled on it looking for a way to keep my food diary in some kind of electronic format (having been keeping it on paper for a few weeks). What I like the most is that you can still get to the full website (with forums) from your iPhone, unlike another site [FB] that limits you to the mobile site on your device, MFP let's you choose. The mobile app is quicker for logging food and recording weigh-ins. Enjoy!

    Same here. I had the app on my old blackberry and just used it for logging and eventually got bored.

    Then I got my iPhone and realized the social and motivational aspect and been hooked ever since.

    So much that I deactivated my Facebook lol

    hi - my iphone brought me here exactly a week ago - the holidays had been terrible on my weight & so i was looking for a way to be more aware of what i was putting in my body & found this! i love it - i find the app easier than website; however i just jumped on the website for the first time yesterday & was bummed that there was a BL challenge - would've loved to have gotten into that. oh well... i am going to release 50 pounds this year so i'm guessing i'll be here for a while. although i've already dropped 4 pounds just by logging what i was putting in my mouth - funny how i get so less likely to eat junk when i know i'm going to record it & see exactly what those calories are going to cost me! :0) have fun & good luck!

    Same boat, but here via android! Lost 40 pounds a couple years ago and then plateau'd and now I'm up 5 or so and want to get back down and keep going! Would love to try the 'friends' part :)
