Single women in your 30s?
Hi!! I've met some wonderful people on MFP in the few months I've been on the site, and I'm so grateful for their support. And I love seeing pictures of their kids and hearing about the trials of balancing a family and getting fit. But I'd also love to meet some folks who are in a similar boat as me... I'm looking for…

Starting today... advice?
I'm finally getting off my *kitten* and starting BR today after work. Excited and nervous! Any advice from those who've been doing it? What worked for you and what didn't?

Week 2... questions / concerns / fear! Help! Thanks!

How do you keep motivated over the weekend?
Hi! I'm only a few weeks into this journey on MFP, but I'm having a hard time staying motivated during weekends. I have a pretty good food & exercise routine M-F, but I can blow it pretty well on the weekend without even trying. Any tips for how to stay on track over the weekend? Thanks!

getting started... weekends are a challenge / gadgets
I'm finally getting serious about losing this extra weight that I've been carrying off and on for the last 15 years, and it's a bit overwhelming. I like MFP because of the way it calculates cals/deficit and it has a huge list of foods! I'm down 10 pounds so far, but I still have 45 to go and it seems like it'll take…
