Recently Joined, looking for motivating friends :)

Hello!! I'm 19 and have had MFP for awhile, but only have been using it for about 4 months now. I will be using the app for weeks, but then stop and fall of the healthy lifestyle wagon:(. For myself, I find it more difficult to go through this alone.
I am looking for fun motivating friends to help me stay on track. Any tips on what to eat and any exercises to do would be greatly appreciated!
Hoping to meet some great friends:)

    Accountability is definitely important! I'm definitely active on here and I love sharing exercise/food tips and advice :) Been using it for about 4 years now, and I've kept 60 pounds off so far (20-ish more to go)

    Feel free to add me. I lost about 50lbs and testing to see if I can drop more, just to see how my body feels. I never mind sharing tips on exercise and provide advice on what might work for others

    I'd love to be friends with you! I'm in the same boat, I have had MFP for a long time and am just now staying consistent with it! We will work on this healthy lifestyle together! :)

    Add me if you'd like! Anyone :)

    I need to stay motivated, and it's nice to get ideas from people's diary entries/workouts.

    I recently lost 85+ lbs but gained 40 back. Luckily, i have lost about 14 since I started back again.

    I suggest making sure you log everything you eat into your food diary everyday. It really makes you aware of how much you are eating. And drink lots of water. Feel free to add me! :smile:
