Need Friends!

sbpeters93

Hi. I just joined yesterday. I stumbled upon this website when looking for a good calorie counter application for my I-Phone. I'm determined to make this work! I've been overweight for several years. According to the BMI calculator, I need to lose about 35 pounds. I'm at my heaviest point currently. I lost my mother to cancer in November 2010 after a short 5 month battle with the dreaded disease. I lost some weight during her ordeal but I am now 15 pounds heavier than I was at my lowest point with her. I know this current gain is due to depression since I can't get over her loss. I'm a busy working mother of 2 and since January, have been spending just about every Saturday at my mom's house getting it ready for sale. It's a very long and tortorous process! I need to make this work this time - if nothing but for my Mom! This website reminds me of Facebook and I am a HUGE Facebook fanatic. So, I need some "friends" but don't know how to send a request. Sooooo, request me as your Friend so I can get started!

Count me as a friend, welcome to MFP. The people here are really friendly and supportive because everyone's in the same boat! I'm so sorry to hear about you mum - you need time to heal but having a goal of some sort will help you both mentally and physically. I've sent you a friend request xxx

Welcome to MFP! It is a great a place for support and encouragement...for weight loss as well as for life in general. I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom. What an incredibly stressful and sad time this must be for you. It takes great bravery to pull yourself out of that kind of place. I would be happy to be a friend to you on this journey. I'll send a request to your mailbox. Good luck!
