in Introduce Yourself
I am finally getting serious after I quit losing weight.. I am a part of the biggest loser completion and determined to win. I am looking for friends to keep me motivated.. not sure how to request friends. I log daily no matter what and want to figure out how to finally beat the scale because I keep going up and down.

I also have the jawbone up.

    I, too am finally becoming serious. I have had this account for over a year, but can't seem to stay with it. I need the motivation also. I go to the gym regularly and meet with a trainer once a week, but cannot seem to be serious about my food intake. Now I am since I weigh the most I have ever weighed in my life. Not sure how the message board works though. This is the first time using this. Would appreciate any help, encouragement and comradery that can be offered! Let's see if together we can finally make the weightloss be part of a lifestyle of healthy living! Thanks!

    Hi Bruma,

    I'll send you a friend request. I'm also finally getting really serious about my weight and health, although I've been a member here for over a year now.

    My new doctor recently told me the most encouraging thing I've ever heard in my weight battle: he gave me a small physics lecture based around e=mc2 and told me that according to the laws of physics as long as I'm consuming less energy than I'm expending it's quite literally impossible not to lose weight. He then told me to make sure I eat 20% less AT ALL TIMES. No holidays, no exceptions (he pointed out that one 'bad' day can see me consume more calories than I've saved all week). Since then I've lost 6.5 kilos and counting - an average of a kilo a week. MFP has helped me with this because it makes my intake and expenditure accountable.
