Lacking motivation..friends?

I've lost 20lbs which I find amazing seeing as I come from a family of..well..fatties haha!! I never thought I'd lose any weight at all but so pleased that I have! Recently I've found it harder and harder to get myself up and willing to go to the gym and end up sitting on the sofa with a packet of Doritos watching a film..help. I seem to have no will power anymore so I'd like to get motivation from you wonderful people and of course return the favour!

Please feel free to add me :D

    I'd love some new friends! It appears that everyone on my friends list has given up.
  • Hey there! I'm brand new to the site and could use some friends in this adventure! All of you feel free to add me to your friends list. I've just moved from the States to Finland and I find that my fitness habits have TOTALLY slipped!!! And, we won't mention the eating habits that have gone south!

    Need to get the fitness back on board!! :smile: Looking forward to workout out with you all!

    I am a newbie. I started a raw food plan after being at my all time high in weight and spending two weeks making a lame attempt to lose something and only managing 3lb in 2 weeks. So I looked at the raw food diet and here I am. Day 5 and 5lb off so far. My motivation is really high but I will need your help to keep it like this. It is my birthday tomorrow and I am ignoring it - my long term plan is for 1 year tomorrow to be 6 stone lighter and hubby doesn't know it - but a shopping trip to New York is my goal.

    Please add me and help me

    Hey add me! I've been on MFP for three years and it's helped me to lose all the weight I wanted (and then some!) so I'm done losing weight, but I still use the app to keep me in check and maintain an overall healthy lifestyle. I'd be happy to help any of you (and I'm sure there are some days that you'll be able to help me :D)

    Anyone can add me, I am slowly starting to get some friends on here to keep me motivated, I just started, I usually start to get over it in a couple weeks so hopefully this will keep me on track!
  • Just signed up for this site today. I'm stressing over how to make this work in the long run. Right now I plan to focus on nutrition. I know I can lose the weight from healthy eating (2 rounds of weight watchers), but maintaining the weight loss always causes me trouble. Once I hit my goal I eventually stop tracking food and I haven't found an exercise that my knees and shoulders will tolerate.
