Hello everybody, looking for new friends

I've done a lot of lurking on the forums. Now I finally feel brave enough to post my own introduction. I've used MFP previously and lost 35 pounds, but I got off track and regained most of that weight. Now I'd like to try this with others who are on the same journey I am, so I'm looking for some friends for motiviation and support this time. I hope you all reach your goals to become healthy and happy.

    I'm in the same boat....this time I'm reaching out to others. I'm hoping it'll keep me more accountable and that I can pick up some tips when things go sideways ....if your interested you can add me.

    Hi Everyone! Similar story for me too. Lost 30lbs using MFP and gained 20 of that back. Starting the week off right today. Hoping to add some friends for support this time around. Thanks and Good Luck to everyone.

    I'm in a similar situation, of having been successful here once but gaining it all back. I'm also looking for some motivation and will add you and anyone else looking for a friend! I'm a 29 year old female from California here to lose about 50 pounds!

    Joining you in the same boat! Returning to MFP after a long absence in which I have regained all I lost and more :/
    I feel a renewed motivation this time around, and am looking for new accountability buddies, if anyone would like to be friends?
    I'm 33, from the UK and work from home so am going to need constant distraction to stay away from the fridge I think! :D

    I have done the diet thing before and succeeded, but with the stress of work I alway gain it back. I want to make permanent life changes to completely succeed this time. Some friends to help motivate me would be nice.
