Career-driven fitness pals
Hi, I'm looking for fitness pals who are in a boat similar to mine: trying to get ahead at work and get/stay fit. It's tough to balance the stress from work, and also the time crunch makes it rough, particularly in winter when it's dark and cold outside when I leave for the office and when I get home. So, who here works at…

Comfort eating during chronic pain - looking for friends
I lost more than 50lbs using MFP a couple of years back, and have done well maintaining until recently. I took up running long distances and apparently injured my hip in some way the doctor has yet to figure out and fix.

They've got a great site with lots of short videos and interactive tools, and you can connect it to facebook and such. Just had to share with everyone on here--we're already…

Looking for friends in similar situation...
So, I've been on MFP for a while and have some great friends, but I'd like to find more who are in a situation similar to mine. I'm turning 24 this Saturday, work an 8-5 job, and live alone. A lot of women my age I've seen on MFP are married and have babies, and honestly I get depressed and reach for chocolate or peanut…

Goals updated -- maybe I should try harder?
First off, about my journey: I lost 50lbs over the last year and a half, then gained back 15 over the holidays this year. Now I've lost 5 of those and am trying to get rid of the last 10 for good. This morning I updated my goals and MFP said to lose 1lb/week I should have 1390 calories/day. For the longest time I was…
