Needing supportive friends

Hi all ....
I am not new to this having been around for a bit over 18 months now. I had a great group of friends in the early part of my journey and they helped me get rid of all the weight I needed to lose.
I am now in the second part of my journey which is maintaining the losses while building a bit of muscle to go with it all - so my weight is increasing a little but the tape is still showing improvements.
Unfortunately along the way I lost many of the supportive friends that I had and I am now at a point where only 3 of the people on my friends list have commented on anything I have done in the past 3 months. Its kind of depressing to see 30+ people congratulating someone on reaching 10 days and then have nobody comment on me reaching 450. Its not all about me though I try to give back where I can .....
Add me if you think we can help each other continue to make ourselves better.

I know how you feel! I have several RL friends who use MFP and none of them are encouraging... which, of course, is rather discouraging. Luckily, I have a lot of RL support at home but I'd like to have an online community as well.
Best of luck to you!0
