    Hi there! (: Feel free to add me as well. I've been struggling to loose that last 20 lbs for many years now, and I'm FINALLY starting to make progress. (woohoo!) Here's to hoping we can all keep each other motivated!!! Mind over matter!

    Hi, I'm Christa too and just started again on MFP in January. Feel free to add me.

    I'm finding that I'm having much better luck this go around, and I really think that I just had to really want it bad enough to put in the effort required. I was trying to do it before without changing how I was eating and that does not help. Becoming familiar with actual portion sizes and learning how food makes me feel is helping loads this go around!

    I have sent you a friend request too, joined MFP 12 months ago but just didn't have the motivation to do anything, however since January 6th this year I have felt like I wanted to succeed in losing the 100+ lbs I needed to, friends are important as they do motivate, encourage and nag if you want them to :tongue: I log on everyday too so good luck you can and will do this :flowerforyou:

    Im Krista.. Im trying this thing again. I have 130 lbs to lose! Whoa, that number seems impossible to reach. . Ive never been successful on here because I've never been dedicated .. I have so much weight to lose thiugh and even though its possible I may give up again, I know I will always try again. And again..and again... until . I either lose the weight , or die trying! I only have a handful of friends on here and although they have been awesome motivators and support system for me one can never have too many friends so, I would love to make some more to help me (and vice versa) through this challenge! So, if you have room for me, I'd love to become a status in your news feed and a motivator for you on your journey!! :-)

    I feel the exact same way. But I have not thrown in the towel yet just like you I have a lot to lose but the fact that we are still here is a good sign.

    First off believe in yourself and dont beat yourself up if you fall down. Brush yourself off and get up again:flowerforyou: Then DO NOT under any circumstances weigh more than once a week and always at about same time of day and same weight clothing or bare naked! Set a reasonable goal in the beginning 1/2 lb to 1 lb a week and as you succeed at that you can increase to about 2 lb a day more than that you are going to defeat yourself you have a woman's body

    I'm starting over (again), too! :) I logged on here for a year straight and lose a total of 40 lbs. Then I gained 15 of it back. I created a new dairy to have a totally fresh start. I look forward to beginning my journey again tomorrow!

    Quite certain you cannot succeed in this without failing and learning. Otherwise we'd all be on 500+ day streaks.
