Is this group alive? Looking for LA friends.

Found: Fun way to stay motivated
Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you know a little technique that I've started using to help motivate me on my fitness journey. A while back, I saw where someone had started a virtual trip. This got me thinking of how I could do the same thing as a way of keeping myself motivated on my fitness journey. It took me a while…

What do you think about the "If you're . . . and you know it" Weight Watchers adds?
Just want to know what my fellow MFP'ers think about the Weight Watchers tv ads using the "If You're Happy and You Know It" song. You know, the one where they seem to be implying that it's OK to use food as a way to help with any emotional situation. Let's hear your thoughts on the subject.

Thanks MFP!!
Last year in February, when I took my physical at work, I weighed over 300 lbs. At that time, with the Dr's encouragement/prodding, I told myself once again that I was going to lose some weight and get back in shape. I had been telling myself for years that I needed to do this; but had little success. Although the Dr…

MapMyFitness Syncing Question
If any of you MFP folks out there use MapMyFitness, I have a question. What is the mapping of exercises between the two systems? All of my machine workouts in MapMyFitness are coming into MFP as "Elliptical". Any help will be appreciated.

Serious Question - No really
I have a serious question and wasn't sure if the Exercise board was the proper place to ask; so, I'll just ask on the general chit-chat board. I've seen some discussion on similar topics here anyway, even if they were in fun. In your opinion, what is a good option for workout undergarments? When I do a lot of cardio on the…

Big Events you are getting ready for?
I think that upcoming events are a big motivation for people to get in shape and maybe lose a few pounds, or many in some cases such as mine. I haven't really thought of it specifically for me until I was letting my mind wander (it does that often) last night. Next year will mark my 20th wedding anniversary as well as my…

Another 100+ thread . . .
I know that there are already a number of threads going for folks that want/need to lose 100+ lbs. Well, here's another one. I'm going to phrase my friend request a little differently. I'm a 46 year old guy in Southeast Louisiana and I would like to join with others of similar interest in addition to the need for weight…

Finally made up my mind
Hi everyone. My name is Paul and I've finally made up my mind to drop the weight. I want to be here for many more years to harass my dear wife and my kids. I also want to be able to teach my future grand-kids some serious mischief. I am in relatively good health except for my serious weight issues. I need to loose 100+…
