Hi,
I've been on this weight loss journey for about 2 months now but what I'm lacking are some real serious MFP friends who will also be there to support me and keep me motivated.
Here is a little about me.
I'm a working mom of two who finally realized... I CAN!
I went to the doctors to talk about my weight loss and I weighed in at 240lbs!!!! That was the heaviest I've ever been. I'm only 5 foot so that's quite allot. He even suggested that I may try for a Gastric Bypass surgery. I was really considering it. One day my friend invited me to join her at her Zumba class and I've been hooked ever since.
Ever since my first born, I've been up and down but always been way over weight and extremely unhappy with myself and my lifestyle.
It's been a month now since I've started my lifestyle change and I've been kicken' butt! I lost 20lbs in my first month. It was hard and it took every ounce of determination I had but I did it! I have lots and lots more to lose and now I'm looking to find friends on MFP to help me going 'till I reach my goal.
I will always be cheering for you but also keeping you accountable and offering advice.
Please add me and we can help each other

Great job on your weight loss!!!! I just recently started a weight loss program and tracking with MFP at the beginning of this year and it has really helped me. I lost about 15 pounds my first month, but started to see a slow down in weight loss, but that didn't discourage me too much as I have continued to drop clothing sizes. It is exciting to see our bodies transform and to help us build self confidence in ourselves. It is definitely hard work and a total lifestyle change, but if done right, it is worth it in the long run and easier to keep up with it! I will be happy to add you as I log in daily and love helping to motivate!0
