Anyone in Lubbock TX?
After many on again off again attempts at a fitness journey, I have started another one today. I would love to connect with others in the Lubbock area who are working toward similar goals. I have had to follow a gluten-free diet since 2007, and am ever learning new things.

Vegetarian group
Hi friends! I am new here and very excited and impressed with this tool thus far. My main reason for joining is motivation to improve overall health and nutrition. I am a vegetarian and find when I am lazy and unfocused, I do not eat adequate protein. I want to maintain my weight and moderate activity level (yoga, hiking,…
Old & New
I have a 15 year old granddaughter that I used to camp, hike and walk with when she was younger. I now have a one-year-old grandson who I want to do the same with. Except I have gained 100 pounds because of being inactive for so long. If this sounds similar to your journey I would love to have your support and friendship.

Hello
I wanna lose weight
Trying to get motivated
Back after many years aways. Getting in a routine and commitment is so hard to do, but Im going to try.
Gained weight rather than losing
Hello friends, returning back to MFP with a hope to keep my hope of losing weight alive. Need some real motivation and push. I do little to moderate exercise, love foods, drink enough water (1.5 to 2L) and keep adding weight to my body 😌
The journey has begun
Well hello my name is Thomas I live in the Portland metro area I love all things sports and being active. I have downloaded this app to help hold me accountable aswell as help track my food seeing a pen and paper are way to hard to use lol. In the past I have lost weight for the wrong reasons and know this journey is for…
I Need Accountability
I’ve lost the motivation to keep working at my goals. My baby was born 6 months ago and my goal was to return to the level of fitness I had before I got pregnant. I am there, but I’m falling back into my old habits. Late night snacking and negative emotions around food throughout the day are a problem for me. There isn’t…
How do I stop myself from failing?
I gained weight during COVID lockdowns - about 15kg (35ish pounds) so I now weigh in at 70kg (155 pounds). When I was at my happiest weight-wise I was around 55kg (120 pounds) so would really like to get back to that. I'm only 158cm (5foot3ish) so the extra weight is quite obvious and its mainly in my arms and stomach.…

Today is the First Day of the rest of this Girls Life...
At 57 years old I am restarting this journey today. I’ve decided that I’ve got to take control of what has happened to my body and health over the last 10 years of constant weight gain due to aging/menopause. I’m not a sweets eater but I do love my wine and bigger portions. Also pasta and rice… Having had a Mom who would…

Note to self - you need to do more work!
I lost 65 pounds in about a year. I was at my goal of a healthy BMI. Then I thought I could ease up a little to see if I could maintain my weight. I couldn't. Slowly but surely my weight crept up and up. Each time I saw a gain or felt the clothes get tighter I thought, it's okay, I will just start again on (fill in…
Hello from Australia
Hi, I'm new here. I'm 50 years old and am based in South Australia. I've had my Galaxy Watch 4 for a few months but only discovered MFP a week ago. I. Am. Loving. It! I have been walking daily for months, but this app has really helped me work out my food diary, and it has also encouraged me to start running.…

Hello everyone!! I'm currently starting a new chapter of my life and a big change that I would like to make at least is to lose the excess fat and gain some more muscle.

Welcome Me! 😁
Hello All, I’m new here, looking for friends for motivation. Have successfully lost 20lbs doing intermittent fasting, but I’ve plateaued. Stress from work and school, I’m assuming. Graduation is coming up and looking to push a little harder. Feel free to add me 😊
Hello Everyone
First time posting here, but have been using MFP for about 2 months now, and am down 10 lbs.
