in Introduce Yourself
I need friends BUT friends that will actually interact with me .... Some of the friends I already have don't even talk to me :-( lol
I'm on a 100 pound weight loss journey I know I can do it on my own I'm clearly already doing it BUT it would be nice to have a little encouragement.

    I am also on a journey. I am starting out at 345 pounds. My goal is 185. Let's do this together!!! On of the best motivations I have found in the past is accountability to someone else.

    I am looking for a support group that would motivate me and support me to lose some weight. I try really hard, but have had no success. I feel I am gaining more weight.

    The door is open, c'mon in. :)

    For those of you on this thread that would like help and support, please feel free to add me - will be happy to pay it forward in the way that others have done for me...

    The past is done. The future will be here soon enough. What you have to do is focus on today & today only. Its all we have to work with.

    I woulda been dead in 5 years if I hadn't made this commitment. All signs were pointing that way.

    Just a few things the MFP tribe and common sense has taught me:

    1) This is a thing you DO, not a definition of who you ARE. Just like laundry. Take the emotion out of it wherever possible. I cannot stress this enough.

    2) My approach? This is a lifestyle change, not a diet. So there is no finite number of days that I am trying to get to. I will be logging in and logging food for the rest of my life, because:

    a) This program works
    b) I don't want to die young and I was headed that direction

    3) Try to remember - We are the results of the choices we make every day, whether those choices are good or bad. Make as many good choices as you can, and the ship will stay steady. At the end of the day, we are the man in the mirror. We are accountable to ourselves and no one else. I can help you with getting there, but the doing is up to you. Leave rationalizing at the door, and be honest with yourself. Its the only path to long term success

    Cal tracking is considered a good choice (whether boring or not) because it tells you where you really are (just like your check register tells you your balance) - remember to be honest with yourself all the time. Ultimately, you will achieve that which you are seeking much sooner.

    If you will commit to doing the work, your MFP tribe will commit to helping. Why? Because that's what we do. And we have ALL been there.

    Three months ago? I couldn't move. Saturday? I burned 2100 calories exercising. Because? I wanted to.

    You got this.

    Hi - today is day 1 for me "again", and I'm not really sure how to post to a message board because i've never done it before but i'm trying and hope this works. I'm Type 1 diabetic, have been for 13 years and recently my HA!C was TOO HIGH, so for me it's not just about losing the 10-15 lbs. for the millionth time in my life, it's truly about my health and i can't afford NOT to "STOP BINGING", which is totally my issue. I believe that support of others will truly help. So today is day 1, i'm approaching it with a positive attitude and using Fitness Pal every day to track my results. If anyone can share how, when they get the urge to binge they can deflect it and not give in i'd be very grateful, i feel as if i've tried everything but will keep trying!!
