Default MyFitnessPal

I just got an IPhone last month and have started using the app my fitness pal. My username is skithetrees7B. I would like to find some friends who are also using this app for a support group. I think you just add the app to your phone, then add me to your list of friends. No one in my personal group of friends is interested in calorie counting. Of course most of my friends are pretty fit while I am on a journey to lose 100Lb. I started at 222 and am at 204 now. I haven't lost or gained any in the last year.

I like MFP especially the food log. Same username Justdazed, add me if you'd like!

I have to lose 75 - 100lbs, so far so good although I'm in a bit of a rut at the moment

Feel free to add me! And anyone else feel free to as well! stephanie1133

Love this site! I started using it May 8th, which was over a month into my restart, and have had wonderful success with it. I like it much better than sparkpeople, fitday, or several of the other sites I've used.

Thanks everyone! I used to log my calories on a blog, but would miss a lot because I either wasn't at a computer or was too busy ony computer working to log in. I think MFP is just the right fix.

You can all add me too. Neast

Question....Do you eat your workout calories? MFP automatically adds them to my food total and I have been eating them.

I don't add my exercise on MFP just for that reason. I track it all in my fitness app that grabs GPS maps of my runs/bikes, so I would have to manually transfer them over anyway.
I figure any exercise I do is bonus calories as long as I'm not hungry and have enough energy, I'll play with eating calories back when I'm at goal weight.

and I'm okSpinach on MFP

I think the calories they give you are pretty low. Having dieted many times I know if I stick to 1400 a day religiously I would lose 3-4 lbs per week. So adding in calories for exercise is good. I still lose weight on it.
