Reconstruction in July. I am still on trelstar but onc switched me to (AI) Exemestane in late Nov 2016- because it's supposed…

Hello fellow shortie! I was 5'2 3/4" (you know how important that 3/4 inch is!) but I have shrunk to 5'1" at my most recent doctor appointment. I gained my weight after getting married and after having each of my 3 children. I have about 60 lbs to lose. Like most people I lose some weight & then I gain it back. I am…

Good tips/ thinking here. I was thinking some of the same things. Apply yourself & you can do this!

Hi. I'm new on a re-start after failing last year. This will be my year to get it done. Unfortunately I have 60 lbs to lose- ugh! But I will do it & on the right track so far. What are your goals?

I would definitely say to plan ahead as much as possible. I enter the foods into my diary before I eat (while preparing). I tried to say calories are calories (last time I tried to lose weight) but unfortunately your body does process calories differently- at least mine does. The nice thing abt MFP is you are not limited…

Ladies add me as a friend. I am "new"- a re-start. I need to lose abt 60lbs. It is hard- believe me I've tried everything. But we can change our habits & we can do this! 2015 is my year to get to my goal!

Ladies you sound like me. I'm 43 with 3 children. I've been up & down in weight but mostly up since marriage & the kids. Now it's time for me to commit 100% to losing this weight this year. It's a need not a want. My goal is to lose 60lbs. I'd love to have your support. :)

I ordered 21 day fix but haven't started it yet. I'm trying to clean up my eating first. There are great 21 day fix tips/ideas on Pinterest!

I would love a friend in Spain! What are your goals? If age matters, I'm 43. I report this because I'm sure some people might prefer to have friends with similar age as they are going through the same stage of life/ same problems, etc. Either way, feel free to add me as a friend if you wish. I just started over (was on…

I just figured this out too. I'm using an iphone. I can't just click on a name- it does nothing. Go to Friends, tap the + sign, tap e- mail, you'll have to enter the username to make a friend request. Let's do this!

Hi Sarah, This is my re-start. I am only on my second day. I used this app last year for approx 4 months had some success (lost 10lbs). Then I got plantar fascitis, stopped exercising, summer came & de-railed me. Gained it all back plus 2 lbs. :( This is my first time using the community & I think MFP friends will be…

I am doing the same thing: focusing on getting my diet/ eating straight first, then adding the exercise. This will be a lifestyle change for me too- I never want to gain all this weight back again. I would love to help each other stay on track. I will try to add you as a friend; I'm educated but I'm not quite sure how to…

Please add me as a friend. I am new to the community feature & think friends on the app wld be helpful. Just re-started MFP yesterday. I have been up & down weight-wise (but mostly up) since getting married 14.5 years ago. I want to lose 60 lbs and I will do it this year!
