Hi Valarie! Welcome to MFP! What are your fitness goals?

@bacon_double_cheese_burger - welcome! I was also curious what you meant by having an abnormal eating pattern. :) I'm not sure what's normal, and like Ann I figure normal is overrated anyway. @AnnPT77 - happy early birthday!

Hey there! Check out the "Gaining Weight and Body Building" part of the forum - they'll have some great advice for you. :) Welcome to MFP! https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/categories/goal-gaining-weight

I'm so glad you're around and looking to make healthier choices. :) Welcome to MFP!

Hey there - welcome to MFP! :)

Hi Cathleen! I have about 30 pounds to lose as well (I lost all the weight a few years ago and regained some over the last few years... so need to do it again). Welcome to MFP!

Happy New Year and welcome to MFP!

Hi TJ! Welcome to MFP. :) My hubby didn't hop on board when I decided to get healthier for several years. I kept at it and eventually he hopped on board as well without me having to harass him over it too much. I wish you the best in reaching your goals.

Hi there! You've totally got this. :) Welcome to MFP!

Welcome to MFP!

Hey there, Tracy! Taking care of yourself is *not* selfish. It's paramount. If you don't take care of you, you'll be less able to take care of others, or just in general less able. I"ve seen folks who didn't focus on self-care at all gain weight and lose mobility. I've seen others who didn't gain weight, but simply lost…

You've totally got this. :) Also a long time member who has done some back sliding. Fitness is definitely a lifetime journey. We'll get there.

Hey there - welcome and good luck reaching your goal weight. :) What are you doing to get there?

Hey there - welcome to MFP. Have you checked out our gaining weight and body building forums? Lots of really knowledgeable folks there who can help you out.

I totally get the 'all or nothing' mentality. I used to be a distance runner, but several years of injuries caused me to stop running, and I ended up stopping all physical exercise for a while. I still can't run, but I'm walking now and hopefully working on getting healthy again. You've got this. :) Welcome back to MFP -…

Welcome, and that's great. :) What goals are you trying to achieve?

Hey there - welcome to MFP. We have quite few members with under-active thyroids who have been successful. HOpefully they'll find this post and tell you what worked for them. :)
