I’m not new but I need more friends! I MFP, lift, eat, and read, read, and read.
I’ve been part of MFP for many years. For some reason many of my friends are now inactive or deactivated. I am not an active member around the forums but I am extremely active around my wall. I MFP, eat, lift, and read (a lot.) I do a Book Friday every week, post about my workouts and my success or struggles with it, plus…

My I-pod says that I need to be more organized and fix my Playlists because “Danza Kuduro” doesn’t go well “Jar…

It does not hurt all the time, but I can feel the ache once in a while. Well, actually I've been feeling it a lot since I started exercising. I've…

Looking for friends to “squeeze”….
…For information (such thoughts) I’ve been thinking about this for a while. I’ve been an active member of MFP since September and I finally decided that my FL needs to be expanded. I mean, yeah, I have wonderful friends, like a nutritionist (she is the best), a few cheerleaders (that love the WTG!), a few crazy ones that…

I hate asking but since there are so many experts around…
I’m a 5’2, 35yr old female. I need to lose about 48lbs. I’ve been tracking my calories and exercising since the beginning of September. I’ve lost about 8lbs and a total of 10.25” (overall). Exercise wise I’m doing a fitness program called The A.G.E. of Avedon that is mostly bodyweight and band exercises. I do one DVD every…
