It's been a while!
Hi folks, I've been around MFP for a few years but I dropped off the radar due to depression and anxiety, and now I'm starting from the very beginning again. A lot has changed in that time; I'm now vegetarian (I am trying to eat vegan but I'm currently struggling to let go of eggs), I am waiting for an assessment for…

Looking for interactive friends!
Hello folks! I am not new to MFP, I've been here a long time, so I don't really feel like I can post this in the new members section but hopefully it's OK to post here. I am 36, female and I've been struggling with my weight for my entire life. I've been working on my weight for many years with varying degrees of success.…

Need supportive friends
Hi Everyone, I've been going round and round this track for many years and I have hit an all time low. I am heavier than I have ever been, psychologically lower than I've ever been and I really feel like I could use some supportive friends to encourage me.

I sit next to an angry person
All day at work, I sit next to an angry person. This person takes all their frustrations and vomits them all over the office on a daily basis in the forms of loud exclamations, banging items around, claiming everyone is out to get them and it's all so unfair (you get the idea). They blame other people for their failures…

I'm just going to come out and say it, poo. It's very loose and I would like to know, is that normal for a newbie or am I doing something wrong? My diary is…

Newbie Question
Hi Guys, Apologies if this has already been asked, I couldn't find the answer online. Today is my first day of trying to eat paleo based meals and I'm not sure about dairy alternatives. I gave up milk and dairy about 6 months or more ago because I figured out that was what was causing my IBS. Now I generally have almond…

Paleo Help! Surprise Team Lunch
Help! My team have decided to go on a spontaneous lunch out today which is great, but this is my first day of trying to eat Paleo and I don't know what to pick from the menu to minimise any bad impact. http://www.thelounges.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/WEB-LO_Food_Menu.pdf Any suggestions?

Need someone to show me how it's done
Hi Guys, I've been around MFP before in a different guise and lost weight, gained, lost it, gained it (you get the picture). I would like to make friends with some people who have got this thing sorted. I'm looking for people who are interested in being fit, physically and mentally, people who are interested in eating…
