No more yo-yo
Hi! I’m Cheryl. Like many people out there, I’ve been on a weight loss and healthy living journey for a long time with many ups and many more downs. I’m determined to have only small ups/downs as I stabilize my healthy (and new again) lifestyle then level out with a new mindset and habits! Some of us have more weight than…

My yo-yo needs to stop
Hi! Like many of you, I have struggled with my weight most of my life. A couple of years ago I reached my all time high (239#) and lost 44# (yay!).

Including when to progress to another exercise or weight for the…

I, like many of you, have struggled with weight my entire life. I was actually pretty happy with where I was about 8 1/2 years ago - then life happened and I…

Would you like to be support buddies? :-)
Hi fellow myfitnesspals, I've been using MFP off and on for a while. I started to use this site as a way to track what I eat and how much I work out - as a lone activity. I'm not very used to receiving or requesting support from people - usually do things on my own, in just about every facet of my life. I've heard from…
