    Welcome to the wonderful world of MFP!

    I turned 50 last year - it's OK so far, lol....

    Where are you, and what are your goals?

    I would like to lose 40 lbs but would be happy with at least 20, I started last week and have lost 3 lbs so far
  • I just join MFP 2 days ago and I love it. Everyone on MFP is very supportive and helpful with information.

    We try our best! Pet subjects round here are:

    Whether a pound of muscle is the same as a pound of fat
    Should I eat back my exercise calories?
    and
    Why am I over on protein every day?

    I joined awhile ago and have really only recently started to get back into the site. Its great! I'm from Ohio and I am 27. My employer is doing a 90 day fitness challenge that started this Monday so I am really excited about this website and it has been a huge help so far. The mobile app is amazing! I would be happing losing an overall 30- 40lbs.
