    Hey Emma
    I am new to this too! Just started today. I am 5'3 and 166 pounds, 30 years old from the US. I am hoping that this keeps me motivated and accountable for my eating and exercise, LOL. I have not lost at all, seeing as today is my first day!

    Hi,

    I am from India. I am 5'4" and I weigh (gulp) 217 pounds. Hoping to lose a substantial amount of weight with the help of this tool. I have lost about 8 pounds in the last 2.5 months and I need to speed it up...grrr! Anyhoo, best of luck to all of us :D

    HI!

    I have been losing and gaining the same 5 pounds all summer. LOL. So I am now approaching this more realistically, with a long term goal in mind. I would love to buddy up with you guys- I need some accountability- especially over the weekends.

    I have been doing the same thing. I am having to change my lifestyle totally instead of being on a "diet" if I want to reach my goals. I am approaching things in phases (sort of like Chris Powell does for his show). Instead of trying to go for the 2 #s a week goal, I have changed my goals to 1 # per week.

    Hi, I could definitely use a buddy! I started myfitnesspal a couple of years ago, but have been on and off, and I never really used the community section. Maybe adding friends will help me this time around. :)

    Please add me!

    I started at 179 and 5'2 and lost about one lb per week except when at the lake. I was on vac last week and I won't weigh until I think I am back at 171, that is where I was at before vac. This is a great tool if u stick with it. I am not exercising yet but I may start this week to get my vac gain off.:glasses:

    I'm in... 35 years old, 5'4", weight 176. I started out so strong back in Jan and lost 20 lbs. Then I've been gaining and losing the same 5 pounds since April. Time to refocus! I'm searching for motivation and support and accountability too!

    Another person in the boat right here! I joined MFP after the birth of my 1st daughter and quickly fell off the wagon.... fast forward a year and 2nd daughter and I'm determined to make some changes. I've been pretty good the last 8 weeks and have lost 23lbs!!! Friends for motivation and accountability would be very very helpful! Feel free to add me too!

    Hi, I just joined today too! I am 170 lbs now, looking to come down to 130. I think we all can use the encouragement to keep up and meet our exceed our goals.

    Good luck with your day's activities and healthy eating. I find it easy to look at it that way, just one day at a time.
