OK, gonna jump right in here! I have about 85 lbs to lose, and maybe even more, but for right now I've set my goal there. I just joined WW and here, and I am really looking for a place to come and be encouraged, supported, and lifted up. I only have 10 weeks on WW (that's all I can afford and it's a special thing at work).…

For me, I will be using WW and MFP simultaneously for 10 weeks. I only paid for a 10 week program through work. I am hoping that I will be firmly established enough with those 10 weeks that I can keep up the program on my own. I signed up here on MFP so that I might be able to find like-minded people and set up a support…

Hi Beth, I am new here and new to WW. I've just finished my first week on WW, my weigh in is tomorrow at lunchtime! I am hoping this group gets a little more active, I need the support! ~ready~

Hmmm. This has been a very interesting thread to read, as I have just started WW. I have about 85 lbs to lose, and I have been trying to lose weight on my own for almost 20 years. Twenty years ago, I needed to lose 30 lbs....now, well, it's a lot more than that. I also just joined here, but I was on another tracking site…

Hi there! Do you guys participate on the Group for Chronic pain and weight loss? I found it yesterday while exploring here. I just joined here yesterday. I have RA and Fibro, and I am so scared to start exercising even though I know it would probably be good for me. It's like someone said, if I am having a good pain day…

Yes, it is rather like a game! And it does make you *think* about everything. You have to decide if the points are worth it. One thing I decided was absolutely worth it was the points for half and half in my coffee! Not giving that up, no way, no how! ~ready~

Hi, I plan on using MFP to track loosely; I will NOT follow their guideline of eating over 200g of carbs a day, that's for sure. I know that I do better staying away from the breads, pastas, rices, etc. So I will input my food here, and I've manually inputted some nutritional goals, but that's clumsy as well. I make a…

Hi All! I have just joined MFP, WW, and now this group! I've been trying to lose weight for way too many years. I have RA and Fibro and I just know that if I can finally dump even half the weight I need to, I will probably feel better. I suffer in pain every day, but I don't think I have the RA/Fibro has bad as some…

I just joined WW as well; April 29 was my first meeting. I joined a 10 week special at my job, but I do intend on sticking with the points program after the initial 10 weeks are done. I just can't afford to pay for for more than this special. I hope to be able to establish a good enough pattern and routine within these 10…
