Great minds think alike - so let's be friends!
Hi, my name is Jessica (26, f) and I've been working on my fitness, weight and overall health over the last one and a half years. I thought it would be nice to meet more people with a similar mindset! My family and friends are supportive enough, but generally don't really understand why I am doing what I am doing. My tool…

On a Weight Loss / Fitness Journey!
Hello from Malaysia! :) Within the 5 years after I graduated from university, my weight jumped all the way from 48kg to my current 62kg weight. It was 65kg about 2 weeks ago, and I've got 3 kg down so far :) A friend of mine recommended me to try using the food diary and logging some of my workouts, since I've never paid…

Fitness Friends
Hello, I’m new to the mfp community and I would really like to make some fitness friends. It would be great to have someone who is motivated to lose weight and hold each other accountable. Feel free to shoot me a friend request if you’re down to come with me on this journey.

MFP steps not the same as Pacer or Apple Health
I want to use Pacer to track my steps, but when I sync (on both apps, I’ve synced manually and still having this issue)…the steps in MFP do not match the steps in Pacer. Help! MFP consistently shows I’m taking less steps than Pacer does. (And Apple Health, I tried switching step tracking to be from my Apple Watch and…

I'm new!
Hi y'all! I just left Weight Watchers after 6 years. I did lose a bit of weight, then gained some back, but that's just life. 😜 It's a great program for most people. I just needed a change. I'd like to lose 30 lbs. I really enjoy being active and want to lose weight again and keep it off! I'm always looking for like-minded…

Fitness tracker - some advice please
Hi everyone, I'm considering getting a fitness tracker to use alongside mfp. From reading up on them, I know steps and calories from steps can be synced from fitbits to mfp, but do any trackers sync across actual workouts (eg, spinning, weights etc) as I'm more focused on actual workouts rather than steps. I can't seem to…

Getting started again
Hey y’all!! Been starting over for the past year or so, and I’m tired of being on this ride. I’ve done great with counting macros/calories in the past, but had gotten bored, and honestly got tired of counting/ measuring. However, it worked so I’m giving myself that chance again, along with some grace. I think this time,…

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…

Returning newbie
Hello! I am excited to start my fitness journey, again. I have previously been a WW member and did well. I returned to it in 2020 only to find out that it didn’t work for me this time. I’ve been off track for a long while and my weight and health has spiraled out of control. I remembered using MFP a few years ago and…

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".

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…

Tracking Macros
I'm 52. Doing fitness freestyle but like to track macros to get back that abs. Doing resistance training for many years. Incorporating the 10K steps a while back and using this app to get the caloric deficit. Interestingly, I have that deficit but not really losing the amount of fat as expected. Guess there is more than…
