Does your family support you?

:sad: Hey everyone,i just wanted to say how happy i am to join MFP.Its good to have people on here that I can relate to. My question to yall is,if you have family and friends that support you?Sadly I dont..I have alot of familly,but were not close.I have an older sister,but we dont really get along,even though in the past she has struggled with weight,i feel like she doesnt care to see how im doing. My mom is also the same way,she has suffered from diabetes,n when i found out about it,i helped her right away to change her eating habits. Its sad because i feel like i need their support,and if i try telling them that it will lead into an agruement. Plus i dont have too many girlfriends because most of them married and had kids and didnt keep in touch.The only person that I have right now is my husband which is very supportive,but cant really relate to because hes not overweight.Sometimes i just want a girl to talk to.So be grateful for the people that keep motivating you.Im so glad Im on MFP,and i thank all the people that have been encourging me...!!!

I feel ya girl!!!
My whole family is overweight - but not everyone is in gear with trying to fix it. We all say we will and no one does. My hubby is very supportive. He has a few pounds to lose but no where near what I need. It can be very frustrating!!!

Im always around for support - God knows I will need it myself!!!

My daughter eats very healthy so she is a great support. My mom believes a fat kid is a happy kid. She's in a board and care for the elderly now so her impact is removed physically and stress wise.

i have no support from family ( sadly not even my husband) and i dont really have any friends besides some awesome mfp friends so this site is all the support i get
