Hi! My name is Danielle. I am a 21 year old from Buffalo, NY. Currently I work two jobs and go to school full-time for mathematics (I was an engineering student been then I encountered physics....lmao). I have spent the past two semesters living off of fast food because it was cheap, easy, and fast. Now I'm working on trying to eat better and lose some weight. I currently weigh ~185lbs and want to lose about 50lbs. As of right now I don't have any exercise regimen because I haven't figured out how to fit in the time!

I'm looking for somebody who wants to be my weight-loss buddy! Somebody to motivate me, keep me on track, and be there when I need support. A mentor/friend of sorts! Any takers?

    Hi Danielle! I'm also at 185 lbs. I really want to lose at least another 30 lbs. I'd love to be your buddy. I find I need some motivation and support and perhaps some accountability. Feel free to add me as a friend.

    Feel free to add me, I've lost 40lbs doing T25 which is rather convenient at home exercise program that's roughly 25 minutes a day =)

    Hi! I'm a 34 year old mom juggling 4 sweet young kiddos with various special needs (Autism, ADHD and newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes) and want to get my health back like I did with MFP in 2013! I rocked MFP then and know I can do it again. I'm in 180s and want to see 150s again. Feel free to add me!
