    I am a very new newbie! I am looking for upbeat motivating friends. Heck even if you are the exact opposite, I'll be your friend too. Besides...during this weight loss journey we all have some not so upbeat days. My name is Dee and I have been losing weight since February (72 pounds so far WOOT!) and I have decided to reach out and find some other people who are also on this journey. Add me if you want to be friends or.message me if you just want to talk.

    Smiles ~ Dee :flowerforyou:

    In my 40s. Indignant lifestyle changer. Obsessed with pugs, pickles, books, and checking MFP every two minutes. Many complaints, enthusiastic believer in quackery, over 6 feet in platforms, enjoys long flame wars about carbs. Live in San Francisco by the ocean, so pretty much in paradise.

    I really would like to make more friends, nonsense aside. I like all kinds of people from all walks of life. Except for people who endlessly post "hilarious" gifs. You're dead to me.

    Looking for some motivation!!! Not new to dieting or exercise but i'm looking to finally stick with it and hoping Myfitnesspal will help! I enjoy exercising but I enjoy food more which is the biggest problem!! Never been much for tracking calories or exercise, will do it for a few days then quit. Time to change all that nonsense!!!

    Hi. I'm in Hertfordshire. I'm 34 years old & work full time.
    This isn't the first time I've lost weight, however will be the first time I've kept it off!! This time is different....
    Getting married next year & want to look stunning, doing this for myself mainly as want to feel a million dollars!
    I've been using this app since February 2014 & so far to June I've hit my goal of losing 2 stone!
    I've now added another stone that I want to lose & need to find the motivation to do it. I'm determined :)
  • Hey everyone! So I'm 18 and I want to lose about 50lbs within the next couple of years. I really am trying to practice healthy habits so I actually keep the weight off for the rest of my life.

    Hello

    I am from Hertfordshire. I am 28 years old

    I have always been happy with my weight but I have always wanted to tone my thighs. I always found myself doing it for two weeks then as soon as I saw results I would stop.

    3 and a half years ago I met my lovely partner who is a chef... danger danger.:sad: Anyway here I am now trying to loose the weight and tone my thighs. I started this journey at 149 lbs in March this year . I am now at 127 lbs. Woop woop! I haven't got a goal because it's more about how I look. I ideally want to be a size 10 on my bottom, like I was before. I am currently a size 8 on top (pear shape)

    Being on here, reading different post has really helped motivate me so I wanted to say hello to everyone. Well done to everyone who has started this journey or already on the journey.

    Add me, my diary is open so we could motivate eachother. :smile:
