Well, technically that's not true - I've been signed up to myftinesspal for a while now but have found that I've not really stuck to the diet propelry.
Following the ending of my relationship recently, I've decied to take my life into my own hands and start again. I've signed up for a half marathon in October which I am already training for and am starting my preivous hobby of kick boxing tonight (after a four year break - gulp!).
I am really determined to do it this time - not just to lose weight but to generally get healthier. I've realised that although I eat resonably well, I do drink a bit too much which I've decided to nip in the bud.
Would like to meet some others on here who are also just starting out for a bit of moral support!

I have been signed up for a few days- did follow the program before but going to try to stick to it this time. I also have recently had a relationship end and have decided to focus on excersise and healthy eating to start taking control back of my life! Joining zumba, starting a running program and very determined to stick to MFP. Feel free to add me or message for support and motivation!0

Me! lol
(but technically... I'm 2 hrs and 25 min into my second day :P)0 -
Hello,
i was on MFP a year ago and last 30pounds, and have just started a fresh account today to finished off what i never did before
Kick boxing very good for all round cardio / conditioning. when I started up kickboxing after a 6month gap my legs were sore for 2days after :P0 -
Me too..back yesterday after a few months break and ready to shift this weight enjoy x 0
-
Even thought I didn't follown MFP, I did manage to lose 10 pounds at hte beginning of this year so that I'm now in a healthy BMI, but ideally would like to lose another ten.
I think the reason I didn't take it too seriously last time was that I was in an unhappy relationship,s o was comfort eating and drinking too much vino.
However, I am really determined this time - it's time to take care of myself for a while and ot be a bit selfish 0 -

I hear you on the comfort eating and drinking too much vino- and completley agree that being a bit selfish is fine for a while! My thoughts are very much alike!0 -
My day 1 !! lol0

Hello!
I started yesterday but did nothing except for logging my food and exercise.
Name's Chiara, from Italy, looking for friends to share successes and shoulders to cry on in case of failures. 0 -
Me, Hisham, I tried many different diets and another software, success but fail again... I really wish to proceed forward and maintain my self with this amazing website... glad to have you around0

-
Im on day 1 and super nervous. Fingers crossed and hoping that i'll consistently follow my schedule... ahhh!0

I signed up for MyFitnessPal 3 days ago but today is my first day actually logging on. I had lost 40 pounds and somehow gained it all back so I was looking for an app that I could track all of my eating. I know that I eat without thinking about it but when I write it down I am more aware of it and am in more control,0

Officially, I'm on day 2. I signed up last week, but I only managed to stick to the plan at breakfast - then by lunch I'm stuffing my face again. Hello all!0
-
Wel, I have been here many times, then left, came back, left.... In the past it has helped me loose over 30 lb, now I am back to loose a few more hopefully... It is day 2 for me! Started Monday:)0

Oh how I remember DAY1!
It was the beginning of my awesome journey. I was a little scared, a little excited and not too motivated. I really wondered if this was going to work.
Last Friday I celebrated my 1 year anniversery here and I could not be happier.
Use the tools, make great supportive friends, and you will succeed.
Wishing you great success in your journey to a new you! Just remember to enjoy the ride! :flowerforyou:0 -
Let's call this day 1 of round 2. I'll ease my way back into this.0
-
I have been an on and off member since 2009 and its lovely to see you making a difference on your first day. I have signed up for the london marathon next year and can't run (well just did a 5k this morning all of three miles!) its going to be great getting back to kick boxing and keep in touch I wanna know how it goes.)0

Every day is Day 1, This is how i try to operate, I have a habit of getting comfortable, I can not get comfortable on this journey. Good luck.0

Hi, on Day 2 and so looking forward to shifting this weight - just too scared to weigh myself though ?!?! Thought I´d try and slim down a bit first and then weigh myself so its not too much of a shock !
Amazing how I already feel like ´someone is watching´ so Im aware of every single thing that Im eating - for sure I think this will work!
Good luck to everyone and well done to those high achievers - thank you for the inspiration!

I have been using MFP for about 6 months, but every day is like the first day. It is conscious decision to "start over"! I am running my first half marathon in November in Savannah GA. Feel free to add me if you'd like. 0
-
Hello to all, this is my first day also and trying to figure out the right way to do things. Good luck every one!!!0

I am just into my 2nd week - have found it really hard the days that I'm working and stuck at a desk for 8 - 10 hours, plus being winter here no time to do anything on those days and find I graze all day and go over my calories. I love days off as if the weather is good I get outside with my horses and burn lots of energy.
I'm not a very disciplined person so am finding this really good as it makes me stop and think about what I'm eating & just how much I put into my body. I am hoping to not only lose weight but also develop healthier habits along the way.0 -
hey Day 2 for me, I went overboard with my calories today but I really like that 'myfitness pal' will give me da egde to keep track of my calories, I am finding this website easier to navigate, which is a plus - for a start0

Hi - I'm on day 2. Yesterday I just used the phone app to log what I ate (and to meal plan for the week!). Today I've found the forum which I'm hoping will give me the support, inspiration, motivation, and meal ideas that I need to make a sucess of this.
I've know for a while that I need to "do something" to sort out my eating habbits and weight. I hate not fitting into my clothes, I hate dressing to cover up rather than show off, and above all I hate that I seem to eat without thinking about the effects it will have. I'm really hoping that logging everthing that goes in, will make me think more about what I'm eating and why I'm eating it.
Yesterday (day 1) was great (after the inital shock of weighing myself.....), I stuck with in my 1200 cal limit, and enjoyed cooking up a huge batch of heathly, tasty, low cal ratatouille which I had for dinner last night with teryaki salmon, and had for lunch just now with a wholemeal pitta bread nom nom nom!!!!
As I've only just found this forum I don't have any friends yet - if anyone wants to friend me please do, hopefully we can inspire and motivate eachother along!!0 -
I'm on day 3 now, so Monday was day 1!
Typical that I've been poorly and just want junk food...
Lost weight on here before but fell off the wagon, so back on again and need some inspiration. Need to lose 30lb before Christmas, that's my long term target and achievable if I put my mind to it!

welcome!
I'm on day 3 now, but every day feels like day 1 tbh, haha!
