  • Welcome to MFP. It's a great way to track your calories and exercise. Add me to your group. The inspiration and motivation available within a group like this makes it doable. I have 40 lbs to lose, and I'm looking at a hip replacement surgery in 11 days. I'm terrified of what will happen when I can't lift weights or swim…

  • Hi Ladies. I've been on and off of FitnessPal for a while now. Using my iphone to record food has been so easy and really has worked to keep my on track. I love to exercise --- usually clocking 6 -7 hours per week in the pool or gym. But....I'm scheduled for hip replacement this spring and the pain is once again intense.…

  • Hello and welcome! I'm working on the baby fat too --- but as someone else just said, my "baby" is considerably older...she's leaving for college in a month.

  • Yes! I'm in. New to the program, I've lost 2 this week and hope and pray and PLAN to lose 3 more before Chirstmas. Then another 20 by summer. Just had surgery on my foot, so exercise is not an option at this point. Must watch the calories and drink LOTS of water.

  • Did you really start at 173 at 5' tall? If so, respond. I'd really like to chat with you re your success as I'm 5'1" and 161 right now. Seems like a whole new world for those of us without any height to help hide the pounds.

  • Kelsey -- did you really notice a difference in weight lose once you INCREASED your caloric intake to 1200? May I ask how tall you are and how long you exercise each day?
