Looking for friends at goal or close to goal

samanthahix12

Hi all!
Over the course of a year and a half, I lost 50 pounds and came within a pound or two of my ultimate goal weight. I ventured into maintenance because I felt good where I was. I began to slack off on exercise and logging my foods so I am now 10 pounds away from my ultimate goal weight. It only took about 8 months for this to happen.
Suffice it to say, I didn't do a great job but I am reeling it back in. My friends list has gotten smaller since I was such a slacker so I'm looking for friends to help support me on my journey of getting back to my UGW and finally onto maintenance.
I love MFP and the great people I've met through it. I know I would not have been so successful otherwise!

Always looking to add. I've been at 10 lbs from my goal for over a month now and struggling with these pounds. I'm feeling happier, but frustrated with the stalemate I'm at, so any support is always welcomed.

I gained over the holidays as well and would like to lose 10 to 15 pounds. Feel free to add me.

I'm a similar story, I lost 50 lbs and reached goal in 2013. It took a year to lose it and I've maintained it for almost a full year, but this past few months I started creeping back up. I'm up about 15 lbs from goal and ready to get back in the saddle. Let's do this!

I'm about 3lbs away from my original goal - might lose a few more when I get there. Feel free to add me...

I am at goal. Feel free to add me.

I am in a healthy weight range BMI but technically about 5 pounds out from goal weight and definitely have more health and fitness goals - my result goal is more about toning up certain areas and eventually strengthening once I get here. However it will be a challenge not just to maintain but break that plateau to take it to the next level. I guess that's why they call them plateaus More about the "physical result" than the actual weight number for me.
Feel free to add me - happy to support and expand the network a bit.
Thanks and good luck

Those last few are hard! You know you're at an already healthy wt, but would like to lose some "vanity" pounds. Those just don't seem as important and those "cheat" meals keep adding up! Feel free to add me.

shrinkinginQualicum

Hi! I was doing well, then had a bad summer (hubby's health - I binged on ice cream), plateaued like crazy in Sept/Oct, and was doing great in Nov/Dec. You know what happened at Christmas! I am 10 - 15 lbs over where I want to be as well. Love to have another friend, add me if you wish.

I'd be happy to join in but feel kinda left out based on age etc. Not at all interested in those in it for ego reasons. At least that's how too many of these seem to be.
Lost 76 lbs over about 9 months. Been on what I call maintenance for almost 6 months with decent results. This journey has been one of discovery and change. Learned much about myself and what I see as my addictions. Jokingly referred to as a seafood problem. (See food and eat it)
Being a sedentary creature by current lifestyle, despite having a very active life up to age 50, I cannot relate to those gym rats posting frequently.
Still, would be willing to share experiences getting to where I am today. Perhaps someone could use the occasional non judgmental support of a fellow traveler. And I could use encouragement about returning to a 'slightly' more active routine.

Hi all! I've been on MFP since summer of 2013 and maintained (I have a 5 pound range that I allow: 155-160) for a year now, with the exception of a little fall back this past summer where I slacked and gained almost 10 lbs. I lost that weight, but the holidays have added about 3 pounds. I'm working hard to get rid of those once again.
I'm 45, just shy of 5'7", and lost 23+ pounds with MFP.
I'm always looking for new friends on MFP. I like the social aspect of the app (I usually log in from my phone) and it keeps me checking in everyday.
I exercise 5-7 days a week. I'm a runner (nothing serious, 5ks), into yoga and Pilates. I also love the elliptical. I check in to MFP everyday, my diary is open (I log 5-7 days/week) and I don't do any special diets.
