Friends who actually comment...

Hey all, so I've been on here on and off for awhile but I'm actually sticking to it the last few months. Although I have more to go, I'm officially down 22 pounds. I'm really excited to see how far I can take this. But I'm having a hard time finding motivating friends that actually check in or comment once in awhile. It seems lately when I look for a little advice and ask questions all I get is the like button pushed. That doesn't help and beats the purpose of this app. If you're looking for the same and need a truly motivating friend feel free to add me.

    Add me. I've been here a while. I'm down a bit over 100 pounds. I don't use the diary part as I write ask my food in notebooks so I can look back if need be. It would be nice to have a friend to have conversations with.

    Feel free to add me to your list. I enjoy interacting with my friends beyond the "like" button as well.

    I feel the same way. I am struggling to stay motivated and friends are not very useful. Please add me if you want.

    I just sent you a friend request. I also prefer friends who actually interact, comment, beyond clicking "like".

    I agree. It makes it much more motivating seeing comments rather than likes. Feel free to add me

    I tend to ignore automated posts, but if you are actually saying something real, then I will usually comment if I actually know anything about the topic!

    I agree with this one, often I just ”like” the automated posts, especially the ”so-and-so completed her diary” things, but try to comment on personal statuses and weight loss.

    So far I find this app very interesting, as I never really took any notice of the food that I eat, but if you need a goal to stick to too loose weight I think this place is a step in the right direction, just stay focused and think of the benefits loosing weight does helping you get fitter and stronger. Just saying Phil

    In the same boat. If anyone would like feel free to add me too. It seems as though people don't stick around here. I am only down 12 pounds so far and have roughly 80 to go. Would like to train for another Spartan race and and trying to balance food, exercise, work and have 3 little ones. Would love to talk to people who are serious about a lifestyle change :smiley:
