Been awhile...
...since I introduced myself. I’m 36, and I’ve lost close to 50 lbs. in the last 16 months. I am now doing weight training and liking the results (was only doing cardio previously). I’m on MFP every day, and I like to post and interact regularly. Feel free to connect!
Minneapolis area?
Going to be in Minneapolis overnight in a couple weeks...anyone in that area? Comment or message, please.
Minneapolis area?
I am coming to Minneapolis on business for a couple days in May...wondering about a good local gym and a restaurant I should try while there. Suggestions?

Workout jams...
Name a song you love to workout to...something people might be surprised by. Mine would be “Real American,” Hulk Hogan’s entrance song. Still gets my blood pumping 💪🏻 And...go!
Runners...best shoes?
For outdoor running, what’s the best brand of running shoes? I’ve only used Nike, but someone recommended Brooks to me recently. Have also seen serious runners with Saucony shoes...what do you recommend?
New exercise(s)...
What new exercise have you picked up recently that you’re now into? It’s hard for me to get excited for any of my workouts besides basketball at this point...I’m open to suggestions. I also run and hit a heavy bag.
Add me...another one looking to increase the friend count...
I work out 4-5 days a week, and I’m trying to get better at logging ALL my food EVERY day. Happy to share journeys with any of you.
Body parts...
What body part (if any) are you working on now, or planning to work on? I’d like to get bigger, more toned biceps.
I met celebrities today...
I met Celtics legend Antoine Walker and Bryan Cranston today...how awesome is that. Ice Cube put it best...today was a good day 😎
Breaking through a plateau
Any success stories on breaking through a plateau? I haven’t lost any additional weight in the last couple of months. What can I do to break through? For those that have broken through a plateau, what worked for you?
What’s everyone up to tonight?
Any big plans? Anything fun?
Partner not interested...
How many have lost over forty lbs. without their partner being involved? Mine hasn’t don’t much to lose weight...I’ve lost 45. Definitely would make it easier to stay motivated if she was interested. Thoughts?
Lost 45 lbs. in a year with MFP and exercise
One of my progress pics is my profile pic. I still have a ways to go...want to lose at least 25 more lbs...but I’m at my lowest weight since high school. Feels amazing.
Biz trip to NYC...what should I eat?
Trying to be good while I’m alone in the Big Apple, but if I do a cheat meal, where should I go?
Gotta get outta bed...
Need to get a workout in before I head to work, especially after eating junk food last night. Someone motivate me lol
Feel like chatting...
Anyone feels like chatting tonight...keeping from eating late...etc...let me know 👍🏻
Couldn’t have pulled off this look before
Gotta say I’m proud of myself...couldn’t have pulled off this look before I dropped 45 lbs. It really does feel good 💪🏻
First time in the community...just wanted to introduce myself
Hi there. Using MFP and discipline with exercise, I’ve lost about 45 lbs. in the last year. Lowest weight I’ve been at since high school. Working for more! Feel free to say hi 👋🏻
