Trying this again - need friends

inconc3ivable
Posts: 2
I don't think anyone even saw my other forum post so I'll make another one, since I do still need friends.
So, for the millionth time, I'm trying to lose weight. And now that I'm actually 18, I can use MFP and not get in trouble for it.
I'd honestly like to get down to about 100lbs. Being only 4'11/5' (depending on who I ask), This is very much a healthy weight for me. But, I can't do it alone. So, I'm looking for some friends on here, preferably fairly close in age, with similar goals. Also, I'd prefer mostly female friends. I just feel like we can connect more. But that doesn't mean I'm completely opposed to male friends on here.
Personally, I won't be doing any lifting, or anything like that, because I don't really want or need muscle. Just figured I'd throw that out there.

Hey!
I'm pretty new to this myself etc and could do with motivation etc.
I was the exact same as you when i first started, not wanting muscle etc but after researching muscle is sexy! I do advise you re think or maybe just don't cut it out completely! Its a great way to loose weight and you will also look amazing
Hope that was kinda helpfulfeel free to add me

You really do need to rethink the weight lifting. It helps so much. Muscle burns even more calories and it will help with lose skin. I started lifting as soon as I started to lose and has helped so much. Also I am way older than 18 but you can add me if you want.0
