Looking for 40+ friends - goofy, silly and slightly weird a plus
Hey y’all! I’m restarting MFP after a long break. I would love some fun folks to do this with because I know chatting with folks going through this too is very helpful to me. I’m 48, an empty nester mom in Texas. I need to get my motivation back on track to be healthier and feel better. Shoot me a friend request if you’re…

Hello ! Time to take care of my health!
In February 2022, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. I was about 100 pounds overweight and mostly sedentary. Back at the beginning of the pandemic, I joined an alternative site and was successful in losing around 30 pounds, but I lost interest in logging meals and eventually…

Hello Fitness Pals
Many have been where I am on this weight loss journey. I just started speed keto to help me lose 40 pounds. Over the past 5 years, stress, motivation, and discipline have been the main factors in the weight gain. Summer is coming quickly and I really do not want to be embarrassed any longer. My vision and mindset are clear…

Hi! Back on the wagon (again)
I wouldn't say I'm a yo-yo dieter, because I've been heavy most of my life. I once lost 60 pounds on WW, but then gained it all back over a course of time. Had some minor set backs with health and am just feeling crappy. I like to say menopause and the pandemic have not been kind to me since I have a job where I sit all…

Good morning! I'm back again.
Hey everyone. I'm back on the wagon after turning 40 this year and being very close to the heaviest I've ever been (nearly 300 pounds!!!). Being 40 and out of shape is no fun! I'm starting this journey by easing myself into things in hopes that I don't burn out too quickly. I've joined an easy walking plan and am tracking…

Hello MyFitnessPal Community! First Time User
Hello All: One week ago I started to change the way I eat. My plan: eat smaller portions and limit carbohydrates in particular. So far after one week, I do notice a small difference in how I feel--very positive! I plan to try to lose one pound a week for one year, so my plan is to lose approx 50 pounds in one year. I weigh…

Auto Add Vitamins Option
Hi! It would be great to have an option (like a check box) to automatically add something daily like vitamins or foods eaten daily. Or possibly select multiple days within the calendar to add the item to.

I'm a female in her mid 30's living in Yorkshire UK, who needs…

Gains?
Hey, everyone! I'm Jeffrey. I'm new to MFP. Discovered it through the Garmin Connect app. Fitness is my favorite journey. Diet, however, is not. I'm trying to gain weight. I'm 5'11". I started at 130lb. After my 1st year, I'm at 150lb. My end goal is to hit 175lb. I lift & run 5-6x/week. I hit a plateau, so I started…

Need new friends! Add me :)
Hi everyone! My name is Michelle. I'm sort of respawning and trying to lose weight for the first time in years. I had some success with MFP a few years ago and got down to 180 ish, felt in really good shape. Then I had a few crazy years where I broke up with my ex, was in a car accident, got laid off, and my best friend…

A New Chapter is Being Written!
I am returning to MFP after taking a long break. I would really enjoy having friends to journey with. I am a 59 year old father and granddad! Ready to connect.

Returning to MFP again...hopeful!
Back to try again, I seem to lose focus on tracking everything when I want to eat bad food. I am very hopeful this time! I am over 60 and it isn't easy but I am determined to lose 40 lbs.

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).

New Again!!
Greeting! :) I used MFP years ago, I made a lot of progress, friends and experiences. I'm looking to recreate the supportive community, I should have never let go of before. We can do this, again..!!!

Hi, I’m new—F, age 54 😄
Praise God! I’ve lost 70 pounds since last June and I’m trying a new app, since I stalled out. It’s a true answer to prayer. I only need to lose another 25 to 30 pounds to be at the high end of my ideal weight (160 lbs). Trying to eat more plant based—since the doctor said that I need to lower my cholesterol. Now that it’s…

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…

Anyone seeking an accountability partner?
I am a 53 year old mom, grandma & paralegal trying to kick the habit of yo yo dieting. I need an accountability partner to keep me consistent with planning healthy meals, portion control, walking every day & stop late night snacking! If anyone is looking for the same, let me know ☺️

Add water history log
It would be beneficial for all users who track water in MFP to be able to see a history log of your water, like the time you logged water and amount logged for a certain day. Multiple times I’ve thought I’ve logged water when I didn’t or vice versa (because life happens). Having a log to review in MFP would help with that.

Hi all! I’m back after a long hiatus and would love a buddy (or 2 or 3!) for accountability. Let’s do this together!

Back to MFP and ready to crush it
I’m back to MFP. I tried Lose It for awhile and then manually tracked in a notebook. I think I just need accountability to keep me going. If anyone is looking for an accountability friend, feel free to add me. I started doing Carnivore/Keto in October and have lost 30lbs. I haven’t been exercising other than yoga but…
