in Motivation and Support
Hey everyone,

My name is Camille. I'm 26 and live in New Jersey. I've used MFP two years ago but I'd like to start again, lose a few pounds these next couple of months, and get back to a healthier lifestyle. Most of my old friends on this site are now no longer active. I'm looking for people to exchange motivation, support, tips, and recipes with!

Let's do this!

    Hey I was 30 in February. Lost weight for my wedding in 2012 then piled it back on. Getting motivated again to feel in better health and look good. Good luck :) x

    Hey girls!! I'm 25 (ALMOST late 20's!) and love MFP friends! Accountability is huge for me, as I'm sure it is for ya'll as well. I like knowing people can see what I'm doing - or what I'm NOT doing that I should be!

    Where are you at in your fitness/healthy living/weight loss journeys?

    I'm 26 and I've been at this since 2011. MFP has helped open my eyes and was also a factor that helped me lose almost 50 lbs. However, life and such gets in the way, so I've gained about half my weight back since this time last year. I'm getting back on track though! Feel free to add me! ☺

    Wow 1000 days! That's awesome! I'm 28 my birthday is Wednesday. I just need to stop eating the way that I do cause I've gained so much weight so fast. Currently I am 144. I'm 5'2. Ideally I would like to be 110-115. When I started 3 weeks ago I was at 150. Motivation and support has helped tremendously!

    Hi everyone! I also fit into this group! My name is Chelsey and I am 27. I have been a member of MFP for years and I have lost weight from it and gained it all back when I get off track. Unfortunately I am such a yo-yo. But now I'm in it for the long haul because I am getting married next August and I want to look and feel good.
    I am 5'8"
