in Introduce Yourself
Hi All!

I have been on MFP for a few weeks now and I love it. I am working hard, and although I am losing slowly, I am losing. I've really been moved by the support and love everyone on this site shows. It is awesome that we all have a common goal we are working towards.

I have decided that I'm no longer going on Facebook. I used to go on way too much and i am turning my focus to MFP. I have a few awesome friends on MFP and I really would like more. Please feel free to add me if you are also on this positive journey and looking for support.

I appreciate each and everyone of you. :)

    Hello and welcome!
    I am sure that you are a tad frustrated with losing at a slow rate, but remember that the slower the weightloss the more sustainable it will be. So, CONGRATS :)

    I applaud you for the FB sabbatical :) I am on it all the time, but I also have a large support network there.
    However, if you want support here, i am happy to to connect.

    Good luck and nice to meet you!

    Slow and steady wins the race, right? You are doing fantastic, keep it up!

    LOL, I was surprised this morning when I went to MFP before Facebook! It's just as addicting but maybe a little better for us, right?

    Love MFP, but can't seem to get rid of FB, I'm addicted!

    However, MFP is a GREAT source of motivation and support for my weight loss/healthier lifestyle journey. I'm sure my FB friends would laugh if I asked them anything about calorie counting or exercising! I love this place and am glad to have the support system!

    I have also strayed away from FB lately... much more REAL support on myfitnesspal ;-) i agree that this site might be just as addictive as FB lol.
    I too am looking for friends for support if anyone wants to add me. Every additional friend is extra motivation to succeed in this weight loss journey.
