Hey, would like to make some friends :D

RosieQ19 · September 2013

Hellooo all, I hope you're all doing well!

My name is Rosie, and i'm 19 from the UK. I've had this for a while now, but I haven't really used it seriously in all the time I've had it. However, I recently looked at my scales and had gained EVEN MORE weight and decided it was time to take action and JFDI (Just effing do it, not sure if swearing is allowed here, and JFDI is my new motto haha). So today I thought I'd bite the bullet and join the gym. I'm feeling so happy and proud to have done that, was a big step for me, i'm quite shy. So here's to everyone on myfitnesspal for taking that step and beginning their weight loss journeys *raises imaginary glass* and a lot of you are half way through, or struggling or may have even finished.

So basically I think it would be great to be 'friends' with some people, anyone really! I'm a friendly person and I'd love to have friends to keep me motivated and I'll try and do the same in return and motivate you or give you any advice I can. It would be appreciated and not just that, but I do generally love to talk about anything, not just weight hehe

Please friend me if you wish! I joined a local gym about two years (and 65 pounds) ago, and felt that all eyes were on me. Then I discovered that everyone else was just trying to get healthy like me and had no desire to watch any of the newbies! I started with one class a week and gradually progressed to, at the current time, five classes a week. Started with aerobics for older adults and now take three aerobics-type classes and two strength-training ones. I joined MFP last November and really like the way it is structured. The food database is really impressive -- at least for American foods. I know there are a lot of UK folks (some among my friends too), so hope you find all your biscuits, crumpets, and all that lot there! I also got myself a Fitbit One, which has helped my motivation to move more. Anyway, I'm glad you're in a gym and getting a handle on trying to lose unwanted weight. I'm a sane and positive person and would be happy to support and encourage you.

RosieQ19 · September 2013

Thank you all! you're all so inspiring, and i've already had quite a few requests so far. I'm really happy for all of you as you've come so far in your personal journeys and I only hope I can do the same!

Also, thanks for all the kind words, and I look forward to becoming a happier, healthier individual

Hi Rosie! I’m Emma and I have lost about 40 pounds in the past and have 5-10 to go. I’m also 19 but I’m from the east coast of the U.S. I'm sending you a request!

Jim_1960 · September 2013

Hi,
I recently took stock of where I was after the summer, reset goals and also joined a gym.
Best thing I have done and fully understand the sentiments being expressed.

Anyway, anybody can feel free to add, I login every day, my diary is open and love interacting having fun at the same time (lol).

If you want to extend FL to include some of mine, we are running Find a friend Friday today.
Posting is ready if you fancy joining this amazingly funny yet committed network.

TINAHUNTER1969 · September 2013

Sounds like you are in the right frame of mind this time and mean business!

I talk about all sorts too and am a sod for changing subjects without telling people (I think people should just mind read!!)

Feel free to add me, I'm on here most days and try to be encouraging but I can nag too if that's required!
