Again and again
Hi! I’m Amber, and I’ve done this a few times! Starting over again. I lost about 55lbs with MFP 6 years ago... gained that back and then some. Female, 29, 5’4ish with 100+ lbs to lose. If you’re in the same boat, add me? I’m a distance education student (this term at least, probably back to campus in the Fall) and I have a…

Not new, but starting anew!
I've been back and forth with MFP and Weight Watchers and other ways of losing weight for the past 4-5 years. The first time I used MFP I lost over 50lbs! It was so easy! The last few tries have been rather difficult. I think what made me successful in the past was having a good list of accountability buddies who posted…

I'm not new here by any means, but I am making a come back and looking for new friends.

And then add me if you want a new…

Young and Unemployed Support Group/Thread?
Hey all! Looking for more people in my situation - young and unemployed and looking to use the time off work to crush some health goals :) When I was on MFP in the past, I was in university, and some of my MFP friends and I had a group (or maybe it was a thread) where we posted about being in university and trying to…

Journalling
Anyone find journaling to be a successful tool in beating cravings/avoiding emotional eating? I tried to get to the gym last night and gave up waiting in -15C windchill for a bus that was 20 min late. If I waited any longer I felt like my legs were going to fall off (and I didn't want to experience the same waiting for the…

Hi!
I joined this group a long time ago but haven't been active. Just wanted to say hi! I am a recreational swimmer and am going to up the frequency of my workouts for weight loss/increased fitness. Took lessons as a kid, and just finished some adult lessons a couple months ago. Thinking of taking some one on one lessons in…

Not here to meticulously count calories
I'm not here to meticulously count calories or every second of exercise I partake in. I did this before, using this site, and it landed me in deep water. Fortunately that water wasn't so deep that it was entirely over my head. I've been a yo-yo dieter since the age of 14 (or maybe even earlier, I can't remember). My mom…

Starting over
Hey there! I was on here before with great success with weight loss, but a bit of emotional scarring. I started with the 1200 cal food diary but some days I restricted calories to the point where I was only eating about 6 to 800. Even though I lost nearly 50 lbs, it was a nightmare. I'm back here to do it right. I've set…
