Looking for friends with 50 or so pounds to lose

Hi-
So Ive been on MFP about a year. In that time, Ive made some great friends. However, I took a hiatus over the winter due to some personal things that threw me off track only to come back and find that so many people have deactivated or given up. Almost my entire supportive bubble has gone MIA... Part of me feels guilt for not being here to support them, part of me remembers that no one can want success for you, but a support system is SO essential to success.
I don't want to be one of those people that give up- I want to be here and I want to be a success story.

About me: I'm a 26 year old single mom from Brooklyn with about 50 lbs to go-- And I've already lost the first 50 over the course of 2 years (marathon, not a sprint, right?). Well this go around, Im committed to reaching my goal before the end of this year.

I work out 5 days a week, and I recently invested in a bike and also taught my 6 year old how to ride a 2 wheeler so that's something we do regularly now.

So if you're as dedicated as I am, if you update regularly, if you want a cheerleader and a shoulder to cry on... I'm your girl.

Happy losing everyone :)

    I started out with a goal of 50-60 lbs to lose. I've lost 32 lbs already and have been on mfp for almost a month. I love the support and stories of everyone. I don't have anyone in my real life that really understands how it is to lose 50+ lbs. Feel free to add me and anyone else also.
