  • Yellowknife, Northwest Territories! Cold as 2&3!49 up here right now. Can’t wait for Spring. Feel free to add me fellow Canucks!
  • I’m 48. Struggling with weight of course. Struggling with exercise. Always looking for more motivation and to do the same for others. We all need extra push sometimes. Feel free to add me. Cheers!
  • I'm struggling with the food and a lot with the exercise. Coming off heart surgery 2 years ago I can't convince myself to work out again - walking is the extent of my exercise. Trying to get back in the gym but have such a mental block... can always use the support on both fronts.
  • Please feel free to add me. I try to do my best at logging meals and exercise regularly, and sending words of encouragement and nudges when folks need them to try and keep myself and you accountable. That's the best we can all do I think. I'm 48, with 66lbs to lose. :smile:

  • Always looking for accountability buddies, so feel free to add me as well. Will try my best to support and motivate.
  • Likewise folks feel free to add me. Wish there was a "add friend" button. Can't remember everyone's member names once I leave this post!
  • Likewise. Feel free to add me. I'm trying to get back into the swing of this after being away for a few months. Will provide as much support as I can. And look for the same in return. Likewise to others who want support. It's a lifelong struggle for me and many of you may be the same.
  • incredibly dedication to make it this far, well done! congratulations!!
  • Ba haha... well, let's see... I'm figuring this is as close as I'll get on the percentages, so here goes... 20% Irish Whiskey 50% Dark Rum 50% Red Wine Oops, wait now, I'm over... I guess that explains a lot!
  • Potato chips, any kind, gotta go 'till bag is empty!
  • TR - I know what you're going through. Been there with the passing of my own father 3 years ago. And the last 6+ months of my own health issues have resulted in me packing on the weight again. I don't know where I am on the scale officially, but I know I'm close to where I was when I set out on my original journey here on…
  • Hi everyone. I'm 44 and have had struggles with weight my entire adult life. I go on diets, lose lots, then gain it all back and more. I am genetically prone to an apple shape so I am always contending with that side of things. But MFP has indeed helped me stay accountable to my friends on here. It works. And I am always…
  • A wonderful story of triumph. Thank you for sharing it with us. So happy to see a realistic approach to body transformation. Too often we want the quick fix, the instant gratification, but there is no such thing. It takes time and it takes patience and it takes mental fortitude to get there. Congrats on your success!
  • Feel free to friend request me. I only ask for the same in return - a little motivation and support and an occasional nudge in the right direction - or a shove if that's what it takes! Cheers.
  • Wow, thanks for sharing that. I know I eat way too much sugar. But ever since I quit smoking I think I replaced it with sweets. Most days I'm on the fringe (according to MFP anyway) but I have really been learning that my cravings are not just habitual. The other foods in my diet could be sabotaging me too.
  • Amazing job! Well done. Be proud. You are doing awesome. Keep at it. :-)
  • Anywhere in Canada! but Banff would be especially beautiful
  • Hey Mike, I have been struggling with weight issues my entire teenage and adult life. Since joining MFP, I have found that good friends with similar issues that are honest and supportive really helps. While I have lost 30 lbs to-date, I still struggle with sugar and carbs. I need just as much support today as you do. Feel…
  • Kelly, feel free to add me as well. As I said in my note to Alicia above, I will provide the same level of support and be brutally honest with you if you are willing to do the same for me. Cheers!
  • Hi Alicia, I think you'll find plenty of good friends here with the same sorts of challenges. I myself have been fairly diligent at the workouts, but it's the late night snacking (sugars and carbs) that are my downfall. So I am always looking for fellow friends on here that are willing to kick my butt when it needs to be…
  • I think it's impossible to create the shape you have in your mind - we all do it, but we can't make our body into shapes it's not genetically designed to be. Sure, we can reduce weight and that will change some areas of our body, but we all have to accept that our bodies are preconditioned based on the genes of our parents…
