Just joined
Hi! just back from the doctor and need to take off some pounds. She's never been critical of my weight, I brought it up, but she obviously was glad I did. Its a long story as to how I got here (some 73 years or so), but the past is no longer an issue. Its where I go from here. Gotta start slow. Would love to hear some…

I want to win!!!!
Hey everyone I’m Deb :) Yesterday I went to the doctor and to my not so surprise when she asked me to step on the scale I almost balled up and cried when the numbers read 232. I couldn’t believe it. THE HEAVIEST I HAVE BEEN. I tried to justify it by saying that I have had a turmoil of bad, stressful, traumatic events…

tiny pounds and maintenance
Hi! I lost a bunch of weight last year but gained 4-5 pounds back and want to make sure I don’t keep going up, up, up and away! Heard good things about this app - logging food works for me so hoping I like it here!

Hi! Not my first time on MFP, I've been here on and off throughout the years, hoping to make this one count. I'm an almost 34-year-old Canadian mom to a two-dler, looking to lose more than 100lbs for health reasons (currently on blood thinners for life, would like to move to a different molecule, but I need to weigh less).…

Building community
I’m starting fresh after a chaotic summer and I don’t have any friends on this same journey. I’m a 40yo single mom of a teen with over 100lbs to lose. I know the system and what I need to do but would love to find like minded people to rally and keep us accountable! I’m also a new Fitbit user so I’m also looking for people…

Looking for Accountability Buddy
Hi! I'm an OA member and I am looking for an accountability buddy for daily fitness/workouts. I have schizophrenia so motivation is difficult for me.

Challenge to myself and perhaps some support, that would be nice
Log for 11/12/2022 I binged eat enough calories today to gain half a pound. That is 1600 extra calories than my goal calories. "Enough is enough" I told myself, like I'd told myself many times before, previously. And yet, it always feels different. Like maybe it'll be different this time. The difference now is that I may…

Well on my way...
I've not posted a lot, but I was in a very bad place a year ago. I'm a 5'-9", 61-year-old male and my doctor told me I needed to lose 100+ lbs. and recommended bariatric surgery. I was around 325 lbs. I started down that road and quickly became disillusioned with that option. I'm not at all suggesting it's not a valid…

I was doing so well before the pandemic
Hi. I am finally in a better mindset since the pandemic to get back to a healthy lifestyle. The pandemic hit me hard...and I felt like I really lost a lot by not being at the gym. I didn't do well with at-home workouts. I think I am ready to move forward again and get back to being my most authentic me. Looking for…
