Well technically yesterday was the first day of MFP, but I'm down 2.8 pounds already! I was using WW before and lost 50 pounds on the old program. Then they changed the points system to points plus and I haven't been able to lose since. I actually started back to school part time while working full time and gained back 10 pounds. So now spring semester is over and I'm refocusing on my weight loss goals! My goal is to lose 45 pounds and get down to 165. As of yesterday I was at 210.4, I should mention I am 5'8" and have a bigger build. I found this app on my iphone and I love it! Especially the fact that it has a forum and a huge backing of what seems to be incredibly strong willed people! This is what I need... I would love to have some "friends" on here so we can help each other through this journey. Support is key! We can do this!

Congrats on your success! I just joined MFP as well and I love it so far. There are alot of nice people on here that give some great advice. I was on WW also and did not like the new points system. I decided to try something else, so here I am.
Feel free to add me as a friend! I am always looking for new ones!Good luck in your new journey.

Welcome. Feel free to add me. I've been on MFP for 75 days now. My weight loss started before joining here -- 30 lbs and looking to lose another 60. I log on every day and I provide as much support as I can. I started this journey on my own to prove to myself I could do it. Now, the support I receive here is just awesome. I look forward to logging in every day and participating in everyone's journey.
We can do this. It is a journey and not a destination.0 -
welcome! You will like it here. good luck!0

Hi!
I felt compelled to reply as we are the same height and have the same goal weight! I also have a bigger build and, even at a weight of 165( which makes me a US size 8-10), have a 32G bra size!
I am on a very strict and very controversial diet but would love to be diet buddies and encourage each other! I have about 25 more pounds to lose than you do (two babies later haha...)!0 -
Well done on taking the first steps. Im new too so feel free to add me. The more support the better!0

I have been working out and eating healthy but i am not losing any weight. Did i mention i am nursing and trying to stay between 1500-1800 calories per day. I am still at the same number everyday. I could not have possibly plateaued just yet because i have only started back exercising three weeks now. Someone please help.0

You should start your own topic so that replies don't interfere with the support for the original poster here.0 -
Welcome and good luck! I'm pretty new to the site but I find everyone is willing to lend some great advice!! I sent you a friend request0

i can do this with you because we have to same goal with a 10lb difference. I am 201 and want to be 155. I have to get down to weight pretty fast due to the fact that i am in the military so my pay check really depends on how much i weigh. I am currently doing the Brazil Butt Lift but my weight loss is somehow at a stand still and i have been doing it for almost two weeks solid.:noway: I am so confused.0

I also belonged to WW back when they used food exchanges. It is a very balanced diet and you will find it fits in with MFP nutrient tracker just perfect. I saw a news report just recently where they ranked WW as the best diet program on the market today, because you learn to make your own healthy meals and to truly change your style of eating. Good luck, I think you will do great on MFP!! :bigsmile:0
