@inickel711 I have MFP connected to my Fitbit, that's how I track my steps. I know MFP can be connected to other apps as well. I don't think MFP tracks steps on its own, but you can just get a basic pedometer for $15 or find a free app on your phone (but then you'd have to keep your phone on you at all times).

Mother of 14! WOW! Welcome! You've got this. Just remember what you're here for, keep logging and do your best.

Best of luck! Just keep tracking, get your steps in, and be mindful! You've got this!

Good morning! Congrats on taking your first steps to get your life back! I am back on MFP after losing nearly 100 lbs and gaining it back after 5 years. I'd love to be friends on here to share motivation and support.

You got this! Slow and steady!

I wouldn't say hard. I would say it's more a matter of motivation and self-control that's hard but isn't that what is always hard when you start trying to get healthier? My suggestion is to take it slow and just start with tracking your food every day and getting your steps in. If you're tracking every day you'll see where…

Same. Best of luck!

Morning. I am back on MFP after a few years of hiatus. I too am trying to be more social and have friends who will help me with accountability. Please feel free to add me.

@tristatriesagain please do!

Good morning! I am fat and 40, but I'd like to be 40 and fabulous before my birthday in February. I'd love more motivation and accountability buddies. I sent you a request. :)

Good morning @ellatwo ! Thanks for the reply. I'd love to have a sort of accountability buddy. That's a great idea! My only real "plan" is just lowering my carbs and sugars and trying to stay under the calorie goal MFP gives me lol. So I don't know if that really counts as a plan or not. Sodas are definitely one of my…

Here is a good link with some exercises to avoid and exercises to help repair it. Do a google search or youtube search and you'll find many more. But to answer your question simply, planks are not supposed to be good for diastis recti, but the good news is you can still repair it even several years after having your baby.…

I know you've heard it before, because everyone has, but when you're bored or wanna binge on something but know you're not hungry just got for a short brisk walk. Something short, five or ten mins. It'll boost your mood and get your mind off of the food. Added bonus is you're moving more too! Totally agree with logging…

New workout shoes. Night at the movies. You got a lot I would have said lol

I would hope so! I can't afford a gym lol Seriously though, there are tons of other options instead of going to a gym to workout. I have dumbells and kettle bells and DVDs and YouTube and DailyBurn instead of a gym.

I got mine just over a week ago and am loving it. Of course I got the old one because it's what I could afford, but I think it works great so far. The tracking is fantastic and so are the challenges. I was able to add lots of mfp people to my team and so I'm able to see how I'm measuring up and get extra motivation from…

The OP deactivated their account. I don't think she'll be responding any more. :/

Awesome job! Thank you for sharing and being an inspiration!

I like daily burn. I have a roku so I get to watch it right on my tv. It's easier than searching for a video on YouTube (for ME). I personally think it's worth the price.

Awesome!

Add me please :)

You can add me. I love her videos. :) There are also a few walk away the pound groups on here you can join.

Great! Way to go! When can I get a basket? Lmao. Seriously though, awesome on the 16 lbs! I've been on here for just over 20 days, but don't have a working scale soooo no clue if I've actually lost anything. Haha

I've been using Daily Burn too. I'm also doing the True Beginner and totally loving it. My 7 year old (who's super fit and in competition cheer) loves to do the dancing workouts. I've been doing the True Beginner series for about a month and I think I'm ready to start adding some variety to the workout by doing maybe…

It's occurred to me that you probably need my name to connect lol - Amanda Keller

me too! me too! Just got my Jawbone today and after checking my contacts and connecting FB I found I have ZERO friends with a Jawbone...BOO :'( My email is - amandalyn.keller@gmail.com Thanks! :)

My jawbone was just delivered today! None of my friends have one. :'( Feel free to add me too! I could ALWAYS use extra motivation! :D

Would love more MFP friends. Add me. :)

I've got 150+ to lose. Just need help staying motivated. I'm in. Add me! :D

Hahaha Yeah... I'm adding you!
