in Introduce Yourself
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!

    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 :P

    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 :)

    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!

    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,

    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:
