MFP friends anyone?

[G3m81]

It’s that time of year when we all start thinking about going on a diet. Anyone on my fitness pal who wants to make some friends for motivation?

Yes, I do. Haven't done it for ages, but it does help. I have forgotten my password and need to reset it. How do you add friends?

When you open the app there’s three dots in the bottom right corner and it says more. Once you click on that there’s an option called friends, press it and you can add them if you know their username or through Facebook

Thanks - just pm’d you

Yes please!

My username is DeathlyHallows2 if anyone wants to add me?

I have PMed you.

I’ve added you all, best get my Fitbit charged up and ready to go!

Thank you G3m81 for adding me. I've sent a friend request to someone who is hopefully AFridgeTooFar

I weighed myself this morning for the first time in months and I am very overweight (to the point where it's a miracle my health has not yet been affected). My eventual goal is to get my BMI down to 30. This may take some time.

Hiya, I’ve pmed if you want to add me

My username is mysk_girl if anyone wants extras - I've lost 2.5 stone in 2018, and need to lose the same again this year, so it's ON

Mine is samzy_133

Kicked MFP into order, it kept reimporting the same activity over and over again. I did not cycle for 13 hours today...

Also, blood donation is listed under cardio exercise 👌 walked there and back as well to get the steps in...

I need some friends! It's only me on mfp so its getting a bit lonesome

I'm ArianaDumbledore

I should have put 'saw you on mumsnet' too! I'm just the mystery person

😂

Should rename it mumsnet fitness pals!

If my total calorie intake was green instead of red I would friend
MFP thinks I need 1200 Cals per day to drop weight. How the hell does anyone manage that? Any tips?
I was +250 yesterday & +350 today thanks to a ‘healthy’ homemade veg smoothie.
Any tips for FILLING low cal stuff? I’m starving!

I manage that usually by changing the goal manually! I'm going to aim for 1200 basic, but then eat my fitbit calories, or my fitbit - depending on how hungry I get

well done socks - I can't give blood anymore, too anaemic but I used to do it regularly! I'm B+ so they got a bit greedy for my blood a couple of years back and I was giving every 5 weeks!

My username on MFP is Chocciebunbuns (I was clearly hungry when I signed up)

I'm on a restart from today I lost a fair bit over the last couple of years but I've slipped back in the last few months.

Why can't I see anyones food diary? I wanted to see what everyone was eating for their 1200 kcal , is that super nosy??

I've just changed my settings, so you should be able to see mine now (it's not that inspiring though - there's always crisps lol)

Because I'm quite big (over 100kg) it's given me a daily target of staying under 1900kcal. Even that has not been easy.

I have been overeating for a long time and it has become habitual; I'm hoping that keeping a food diary will help to retrain me to eat "normally".

Sometimes I get through 4 packs of crisps before breakfast, but I still dutifully write them down thanks! Also inspired by the waffle with roast dinner, a lot easier than making roasties!

Hey, I have added those who put their usernames on the thread.
