Hi everyone!

I used MFP a couple years ago but didn't stick with it very long. I was just diagnosed with diabetes and hypothyroidism a couple days ago so it's time to really get serious and make some changes. The first thing I did when I left my doc office was download the MFP app on my phone!! I had no idea there was so much to the website though...like this forum! I'm really glad to find so many others here struggling with the same thing I am and willing and able to give support. I really look forward to getting to know y'all!!

Terri

    Whats up TLJackson. Glad to see you are back on here, and are going to make some positive changes. Stick with it. I signed up for MFP 2 years ago but just recently started actually using it.

    Good luck on your weight loss journey! I have type 2 diabetes and it took me forever to get serious. Now I am serious and my diabetes is controlled by diet only :). You can do this!

    Hi, Are you starting a new group? I am at that stage too...I've been on MFP for two years and have lost 16 lbs. I've been yo-yoing the same 5-8 lbs. for a year!!! I did have a scare...my doctor gave me 6 mos. to get my numbers in order...I am heading into pre-diabetes. My numbers didn't rise so I am okay, right now! I do need to work on diet. I would love to have some support from those of you who have been successful. Thanks for sharing.:bigsmile:
