in Introduce Yourself
Hi Everyone!! One of my friends just told me about this website today and so I thought I would check it out :) I've been trying to lose weight for a while now, but it seems to be slow going. Slow and steady wins the race, right? :) ha. Anyways, I thought I would join here for support and motivation! I look forward to hearing from many of you!!

    Welcome to MFP!! As people have said, you'll always find support and motivation here =) I love the accountability it offers and that you get to brag about your accomplishments or vent when times get tough. -- Kari

    When you click on someone's profile, there's a green "add as friend" button to the right of their profile picture, then you just have to wait for them to accept it. Welcome to MFP! I'm living in VA Beach at the moment, though hopefully moving to TN later this year. I wish you all the best on your journey here. I've been talking about dieting and working out for so long, but never did anything about it until a friend recommended this site. It's so good for me to be able to set a calorie goal and track my food intake. I'm fairly new here myself (been here about 5 weeks or so, I guess), but if you need help or motivation, let me know!
