My friend joined in february and I just seen her on the weekend after 2 months and I was blown away. She recommended this site and I will take her results as a positive testimonial. I am so ready to get back on my journey to health,strength and happiness.

    I joined with my daugther about 1-1/2 months ago; and I've lost 11.6 lbs. I find that Myfitness pal has allowed me to keep at it because I have the option of having other support through this system. Along with my daughter and other friends, I have the mind to keep going forward.

    Welcome! This site has proven to be very helpful for me...it really shows you what you eat! It's amazing how many calories we think we're consuming, and what we're actually consuming. I just started a few weeks ago myself - feel free to add me! I'm looking for support as well! :)

    Hi everyone. I just started today. I had seen a friends posts on FB about how well she was doing on this site so I thought I'd try it out. I've never done the calorie counts thing before. So far it's a bit difficult since most of the food I eat I make from scratch, so I'm just choosing items closest to what I think my cooking is like. We will see how it goes.

    You know there's a section under foods and my receips where you can enter your own meals. I do that all the time because I cook most of my meals from scratch. Good Luck.

    Hey! You've got support here! I've been a MFP member since about February, and have lost 30 lbs here so far. I want to lose at least another 50 or so, and know I can do it with the support I get from friends here. You've come to the right place:)

    I just started today too. I had gallbladder surgery last week and it has boosted me to watch what I eat. I need to get healthy for myself and my family.

    I joined last month and did well the first week or two then fell off the good path I was on! It's amazing to see how many calories in a day I was eating using this sight. Hopefully I can stay on the path to getting fit :)

    I've just joined today and also looking for support. I'm 4stone overweight, have Fibromyalgia but have promised myself that i'll be 'fit, fab and 50. That's in 7 months so I really need to get serious about this. It'd be great if we could swap details and motivate each other. I know I can't do it on my own. Any suport would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to all newcomers! You have come to the right place.

    I have been logging for 60+ days, and lost 16.6lb, and 36". Yes.. 36 inches. If you have a good supportive group of friends, it is possible. Mutual support helps motivate you enormously.

    Best wishes

    I joined a year ago and have used it off and on since, but have been using it 'on' now for about a week. the online community I've found to be very helpful as well as finding friends (you can add me if you want) because you can be encouraged by their successes.

    You can do it.

    Hi my name is Kesha and I joined last year because someone asked me and I never used the app. I just joined last week on my own and I love the tracking. I thought Iit was gonna be time consuming but im addicted already. I am happy to have any friends on here so we can motivate each other.:smile:

    Welcome all! This site really is the best, it's helped me tremendously and while my only friends on here are my family, I am willing to change that! I've lost a bit of weight, and I don't think I could have if it wasn't for this site! :)

    I'm brand new too! I'm not sure how to add friends yet, but please do add me if you'd like support. I have a lot to lose - I don't feel like myself anymore in this body. I would appreciate any friends :-)
