It seems my friends have left me...

Options
There are a few good supporters left, but most of my supportive, uplifting, & encouraging friends on here have disappeared. If anyone is a motivator and in turn wants motivation, please add me. We are in this together. I am not seeking quantity of friends here, but quality. I'm 26, 336 lbs (began at 370), and working to lose 2 lbs (at least) per week. I keep my diary open and try to be encouraging. Add me so we can venture the journey together. :)

    I have PLENTY of days for sure that I don't eat so great. What i try to do is not wait until the next day or the next week to do better. The very next meal. HOneslty, I pretty much eat what I want, just in better quantities.

    So true what you said, if you slip up, get back on ASAP. My past failings haven't been in the slip ups, they've been not getting back to it. I have at least 100 to go. Sending a request :smile:

    Hi! I'm Alexandra. Many of my good friends have left too, I need to get around to doing a friend 'cleanse'. I'm aiming to lose a total of 60lbs. I started a few weeks ago at 196, down to 184...

    DLynn127....Looking forward to it!

    Alexandra....Good progress so far. Yes, unfortunately, I'm cleansing mine. Only those who haven't logged in in a really long time. Trying to support those who may just be out for a while! I'm trying to lose 200 total. Yikes! But down 32 so far and feeling more encouraged than ever!

    Have just sent you a friend request. I've lost 72lbs to date, started at 320. I log every day, just reached 490 days today (I think!). Anyone who wants a friend who logs honestly and regularly and tries to cheer everyone on is welcome to add me :)

    A lot of my friends have gone too. I'm pregnant and my cravings aren't exactly helping my healthy lifestyle. But I do try to make up for it. I don't delete anyone so add me if you need an extra friend

    Me too... only because I'm eating healthy! But if I eat what I normally eat I would triple my goal!!

    Hey! I need some more friends too :) I admit to having this problem of being really good for a couple weeks, then slacking and gaining it all back, rinse & repeat. Trying to stick at it this time!! I'm 5"1' and at 150lbs - hoping to lose 20lbs.

    Hi! I would be happy to add you. I absolutely love supporting and encouraging people. I try to do monthly progress checks with all my MFP friends to keep each other going, and my friends have appreciated my efforts. Anyone else who wants support can add me as well ☺️. I believe the same thing that we're in this together!

    You can add me. I started at the end of March and am on here everyday. I'd like to lose about 50lbs, have finally gotten my diet under control, and now I'm gettingh fitness plan underway. It's definitely so much easier to stick to it when you have a good support group!

    How many times a day are you eating? What I do is never really avoid foods I want. I try to have quality foods too. Some are higher in calories, but are great for nutrition. Are you having a snack between meals? Are your goals set so that they are better for you. My nutritionist wants me to eat between 1500-1800 calories, but MFP tried to give me 2300.
