  • I am with you. I have been on MFP for a few years, and just like SparkPeople, it only works if you are honest with it, and honest with yourself. I had lost over 80 pounds going in to late 2014, and due to some issues at work, stress ate myself back in to a hole. I have gained a more positive perspective of late, and hoping…

  • Fair enough.

  • Same exact boat with SP, lost around 65 pounds and then hit a plateau over the holidays, and just feel out of touch with SP. Been on MFP for over a week now, although I joined it in December, and never followed thru. SP has gotten a bit convoluted in some parts, and skips out on the real science of tracking. Feel free to…

  • Did the same thing with Spark People, and decided to come in from the cold using MFP. Feel free to add me.

  • First off, thank you for your service! Second, welcome. I too am new and was working on getting up the nerve to post an intro, but felt compelled to respond to yours. I am a veteran as well, and have been out of the Navy's Silent Service for just past 13 years, having spent 10 years in. After years of struggles with…
