Hello 👋 from Florida!
After a looooong hiatus (several years!), I’m back for some accountability as I get back into shape. I’m in my late 30s, just had a baby and I’m in the central Florida area. I’ve got around 50 pounds of fat to lose. I would love to connect with other ladies in my area with similar goals!

Late 20s new mom
Let's start by saying I've been overweight practically my whole life. I had weight loss surgery in 2017, and after stating I'd never gain the weight back a million times, I gained about 70 lbs out of the 100lbs that I had lost, back. I became a mom in October of 2021. I need motivation and support to keep me going and hold…

Hello, Cardiac/Liver patient here
Hi there, my name's LC. I've been on here before and was doing very well. I finally made it to the first plateau of my weight loss (went from over 260 to under 220) but lately, I keep blowing it. It starts out simple- I'm tired, or not feeling well, hubby doesn't cook and so we end up eating out and I rationalize to myself…

Weight loss
I’m a 32yo male and this is the first time in my life that I am putting serious effort into shedding weight. A few years ago, I was 180lbs with a BMI of 24, but over the past few years I’ve let myself go and peaked at 242lbs (BMI 33). My goal is to lose roughly 60lbs and get back to my healthy BMI by the end of this…

Introducing Myself
Hi I am Bill, I am 46 and here to get into better health with good nutrition and exercise. Also I am recovering from a recent shoulder surgery so I am a bit limited in the exercise part.

Well New to Premium
Although I had this app for many years, this is my first time I have gone premium and actually using it to my full advantage.

Hi everyone! My name is Michelle. I'm sort of respawning and trying to lose weight for the first time in years.

Starting a new journey - Couch to Marathon
In 2013, I lost my wife aged just 21 to Ovarian Cancer. She was a professional footballer, and we were both in great shape. That year I ran the Great Manchester Run - 10k without any specific training. Fast forward 9 years, and life has hit me in the midriff. Working to provide for our 2 children meant things like…

Can I be successful again?
Back in 2011 I was very successful in my weigh loss goals with the help of MFP and Fitbit. Many things have changed since then but I'm hoping I can do it again. Looking for friends for accountability and motivation (30+ years old and needing to loose 60+ lbs a bonus).

Trying this again
Hi all! I'm going to attempt this weight losing journey once again. I feel like it's almost useless for me to even try. I don't eat because I'm hungry, I eat because I'm bored. Even though I have a ton of things to do, I can't seem to stop picking. If it's there...I eat it. Any suggestions how to overview this? I hope…
