🌻It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Summer!🏖
Hi, I am Ceri. I can't remember if I introduced myself here or not. I came to MFP after Spark People closed down. I am a leader of the 5% Seasonal Challenge that we had on Spark for nearly 12 years. It was difficult but we transitioned well and have found many advantages that outshine any disadvantages here at MFP. I am…

1st Month almost completed
Trying my best to change my lifestyle back to that of eating healthy and exercising regularly. I was very committed to diet and exercise about 3 -4 years ago, and just suddenly stopped.

A pal to stay motivated with
I'm also looking for someone to help keep me motivated and hold me accountable, and in return I would do the same. I have a habit of making excuses for myself so I think feeling like someone else is keeping me in check will help. I think doing the journey with company is better, too. Let me know if you're interested!

Daughter of the King
Hi. I'm Jodi. 54 yo. I'm in Wisconsin. Need to lose weight, a lot of weight. Lost 25lbs on Weight Watchers, since March 9. But I'm allergic to protein so it's been difficult. I can only have 5g of protein a day. I'm using this app to count my calories. And maybe to track exercise. Nice to meet y'all. 😊 💝
