I had friended a bunch of people when I first started using this. But it's like half don't even get on anymore. My support is seriously lacking! It was nice at first having people be encouraging. I am not sure how the support groups work on here. I try my best to be supportive and encouraging and I am looking for people who are willing to be the same way through this journey.
Thanks
Jamie

  • Just added you :flowerforyou: . No worries with me logging on-I've become a bit addicted to MFP but looove it here. I have met so many super supportive friends and it's really helping me! Good luck to you and I look forward to being one of your new buddies!

    *****Add my friends! They are an amazing group of people!

    Thank you so much. That's great, I am quite addicted to this site as well, I have been on everyday since I found it.
    I will certainly give your friends a look, :happy:
  • I think support and encouragement are as much a necessary tool for weight loss as the right foods and exercise are! I haven't logged on for the past month because I knew I was slacking on eating right and exercising consistently....but I recently braved stepping on the scale to confirm that I've gained 13 lbs (give or take a few that I keep yo-yo'ing back and forth on) in the past 2 months. I definitely need a consistent support team to rally around me when I'm feeling hungry, irritable, or dont feel like going to the gym....I look forward to meeting a bunch of new supportive friends :)

    I've had the same problem - most of my friends don't log on any more. I've had to hide people in my feed b/c it was discouraging seeing all the "so and so has not logged in for____" messages.

    I'm on here everyday becaues when it gets tough to "be good" I need the accountability. I could use all the active friends I can get! :)

    I'll friend you! I'm on here daily, I've converted my addiction to Facebook and stupid computer games to this sitenow! So I'll send you words of encouragement or a kick in the a** depending on what you need. We are all in this together and this site keeps me from annoying the crap out of my family and friends.
