  • Long time MFP user here. I reached my goal but still use MFP for maintenance and nutritional insights. Feel free to add me if you wish. And reach out, especially if you're struggling! As the MFP newsfeed doesn't always show me everyone's posts. Congrats on making this commitment to yourself and navigating this stumbling…
  • Well done for recommitting to your health goals!
  • Welcome to MFP! I'm so sorry to hear about your husband's diagnosis. That must have been an incredibly difficult thing to find out. I'm glad he's doing well, though. Happy to connect if you want encouragement, tips, etc. I'm active daily on MFP. I'll send you a friend request.
  • Welcome! I understand the frustration of the scales not budging, all too well. And how it can make you want to give up. But there's always hope. Metabolism can be changed, too. I see you. You can do it!
  • Awesome! Loving this energy! Welcome. You can do this!
  • Welcome!

  • Hi Tammy! Welcome to MFP. It's a great community and a very handy app, if you can overlook the glitches. 😋 I've been on it pretty much daily for 7 years, in spite of them, so it clearly has its redeeming features! 😆 You can do this!

  • Progress photos are a great way to track! It's really good that you have an awareness around what might be stopping you getting the results you want. Mindful eating is definitely a useful tool for weight loss for so many reasons! You can do this!
  • You're not ruined! Fad diets can cause problems but more helpful eating habits can turn it around!
  • You can do it! Feel free to add me. It took me many failed attempts before I started slimming successfully but I have kept it off and continue on my health journey. I'm so passionate about it that I post to help motivate others who are just starting out, whether that's for the first or 4386th time!

  • Hi Daniela! That's OK, it happens. Just get back on it and be kind to yourself. Try AllRecipes.com. You can import the recipes to MFP so they're easier to track too.
  • Hi Michelle! The MFP community is quite an active one. Great that you've jumped in!
  • Hi there, welcome back! You can do this! Add me if you like, I'm practically a permanent fixture on MFP. 😋
  • I invite you to consider a different perspective: You're not starting all over again. You managed to do it before and during that time you learnt so much about yourself and gained new experiences to equip you with lessons and tools that can propel you forwards more easily this time! I understand that you may be frustrated…
  • PS. I forgot to mention: One thing you can do for getting motivated is to change your state. Your mind responds to your physiology and vice versa. You could put some upbeat music on and sing along, or you could become aware of your posture and change it. (How would the motivated version of you be standing/sitting, etc?…
  • Hi CandiJean83. This is quite a common problem so please know that you're not alone. Motivation is not something that lasts for anyone; it naturally ebbs and flows. It's something that can be cultivated, though. I am reminded of this quote: “People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing, that’s…

  • I've read each of the posts on this thread. I'm sending so much love to each of you going through challenges right now. My heart goes out to you and those concerned in each situation. 2020 started with my niece's funeral. I live a long way from my sister (my niece's mum) and the rest of my family, and as a result of world…

  • Hi there. I used to struggle a lot with emotional eating. I had forgotten I was a member of this group and actually came on to pop into another group when I saw this thread subject. Anyway, if you want to add me for support on this (or tag me in this thread), feel free to do so. I log all my meals daily so am on MFP…
