I'm gaining weight so, I'm back
Several years ago, I used MFP to lose 60 lbs. and have been keeping it off for the last seven years for the most part. I am a mental health patient and the medications that I take are notorious for causing massive weight gain. Recently I have had some medication changes and sure enough, I've experienced some weight gain. I…

Seeking New Friends/Accountability Circle
Hi everyone! I’m here for weight loss and recently started my journey. I am not new here but it has been almost a decade since I’ve last used MFP. I’m sad I’m back and at my heaviest of 247! (However, I lost about 20lbs and have kept that off for months.) I am looking for friends to help with encouragement and…

Back on the horse…
Lifelong struggle with my weight. No support from hubby (who can eat anything and not gain weight) who thinks if I just eat salads for every meal, how can I not lose weight? I’ve done vegetarian, prescription medication, veganIsm, keto and low fat diets. I am open for new friends and to be a friend to others that struggle.

I am DONE!!
This is me about 12 years ago. I can see so much more self-confidence and self-reliance in my eyes. I miss that. Physical and mental health problems, nursing my Mother through dementia and grieving her death, along with comfort eating, have been the contributors to me gaining well over 70lbs since this photo was taken. I…

Yoga, Stairclimbing and MFP
Hello everyone! Technically I'm not spanking new because I was here 7 years ago when MFP helped me lose 60 lbs. by food logging. But I am now 7 lbs. above my ideal body weight so now I am back. I not only log my calories, but I do 40 to 50 minutes of yoga 4 to 5 days a week. I also do approximately 8 to 9 minutes of…

Feeling Guilty
Need some advice… 6 months ago I moved my dog and I from Canada to Switzerland to be with my boyfriend of 4 years.

Fibro and Fasting
I have just begun an extended protein sparing fast. I have multiple food intolerances, so fasting takes a lot of the guessing out of it. I am hoping to lose weight and also to decrease my inflammation and pain.

Serial Starter looking for some people to help me stick with it till the end this time.
If you go back in my profile I have said this a few times and I can't lie, it's frustrating as hell to admit it but I need to admit it.

I'm new at posting on MSP but not to weight loss. I once lost 80 lb and kept it off for maybe a year. I've lost lesser but significant amounts a few other times too. Unfortunately, I was not successful at keeping it off because here I am starting over again, just a few pounds down from my highest weight ever. I weigh 230…
