New Friends I can talk to on a DAILY basis!!

Hi, my name is Nichole and I joined MFP a little over a week ago. I have met some really amazing people on here. But so far no one that I can talk to and relate to on a daily basis. My problem is that I lose focus really easily and just give up. I need a motivation and accountability friend who can help me stick to my diet and I can help them do the same. Ideally I would like them to be near me in goals. I am 5'2 and right now I am 173 lbs. my goal is to be 135 lbs.
If this sounds like something you would be interested in please feel free to add me as a friend or message me! I could really use all the help I can get!
Also feel free to ask me any question you want! I am pretty much an open book!
I hope to hear from anyone looking for the same thing as me soon!

    Hi... I've been here for a while but our stats were pretty similar.

    5'3"
    SW - 185
    CW - 110
    GW - 105

    I'm on MFP everyday and honestly I wouldn't have been able to do it without my friends here. Good luck.

    Anyone is welcome to add me :smile:

    What's wrong with the 80 people on your friends list?

    This is my first day really getting into this website but I am hoping to really utilize it. I think accountability would really help me stay on track as well. Feel free to add me so we can motivate each other.

    I didn't say anything was wrong with them. They are all amazing people as I already stated. I love when they comment on my losses and posts. But I would love to have people to message daily. I haven't really found that yet.

    Ok good luck with that.
  • Hey there! I have been using MFP for a while now but slowed down around the holidays... I've been picking back up though and have also been looking for more daily motivating friends. I am 4'11 and my starting weight a year ago was 141... I got down to 111 and am back up to 118. Feel free to add me :) at this point I am trying to focus on eating healthy (I love open diaries) and working on toning/ feeling stronger!

    I have just started up using this program and I am looking for the same as you. Need someone to help me out daily, and someone I can return the favor. I think even encouraging another person helps keep you on track. I am the same height as you, about 2 years older, and have more weight to lose. I'll send you a request.

    I am also looking for friends around my height, age, and weight loss.

    Hi,
    Pretty much in the same boat as you. I'm 5'2 as well, and a I have lost a bit of weight without tracking calories and I am now at about 150 looking to get down to about 130. I am not very good so far at completing my daily entries, so I would really appreciate some accountability buddies. Request me if you want!
    Cheers,
    Sally
