So hard to pick just one- so I won't, but I will say that I have never found such a supportive group of people in my life. It's what has kept me going, and I am super grateful.
I have to say the same thing! I can't pick just one, though I could probably narrow it down to around 30 people that I really depend on. I might be biased, but I personally think I found the most motivated and supportive people EVER! The vast majority of my friends log in daily and comment like crazy, sometimes I feel like I don't deserve such wonderful people!
AND - there are people that I'm not even friends with that I love to follow around the forums. There is such a wealth of knowledge here!0 -
bump.... .while I try to at least narrow my list down to three... possibly one....0

id have to say my 2 fav girls who heal me heaps and if it wasnt for them i wouldnt be here, id of given up by now....lk and Fesse, but i would also like to say i have many amazing friends here and love them all so much, there support and encouragement is what keep me going,0

I have 2 that are very dear to me becuase of the amazing support they give, they force me to open up and download the burden of my world on their shoulders. I am not going to name names though just because I don't think that would be fair to all of the MFP people on my friends list. Each and everyone is special to me and they are on my friends list because they offer such great support in all different ways. They have all conquered so many different struggles. Battling ED's, OCD's Men, Women, Weight, Happiness. Truely each and every person on my friends list not only fill my days with laughter and giggles, but inspire me and keep me moving forward to making me into the person I once was. ♥0

i agree with this. it would be unfair to name names because it'd hurt the feelings of those who thought they were close to you but now you feel they dont feel the same way...duh, did that make sense? there's some MFPeeps i'm closer to than others, but each and every friend i have on here is an inspiration to me in one way or another. besides, i tell the ones i would name on here at least weekly how awesome they are to me. i love you FF :smooched:0 -
My is Adellepuppy for sure... I love ALL of my peeps - but she somehow just seems to know just who I am, and when I need a pick-me-up. She has a beautiful soul. She makes me smile!0
-
I CAN name 1 person and that person is me, cause no one else gives me the power, the strength or the encouragement to do what I do.
Aww damn it. You stole my answer, man. I was gonna say me. Haha.
But since I'm already a pillar of strength, QueenRox is my foundation. And that's that.0 -
Hmm..Everyone on MFP have been very supportive ..Hard to narrow it down to three
..
I got Alicia who is always there to support me...
Other fantastic friends .. Myukniewicz ..Angela.. Martiwillet ...Nightowl..
Glad I've met you guys 0 -
lkm, ff, cm2t, fesse, juls, Thisis4me, SoldierDad...there are just so many ppl on here who make me smile, feel loved and special. I love all of my MFPeeps and I want you ALL to know how important you are to me!!
:smooched:0 -
mrscates - she goes way above and beyond with motivating, giving tips, reminders, information.. she doesnt have to do all that but she does because she cares, and because she knows it works. she is living proof that you don't need a fad diet, or pills to reach your goal.
Anibus - he is another living proof that its possible.. but he smells like pickles so he's my #2
Taso - smart, dedicated, motivating!
DeadlyDame - she's not smart, or motivating, or dedicated... but she sure is funny as hell LOL i joke! she's all of the above 0 -

Glad I've met you guys thanks! and believe it --- I'll always support and encourage!
BTW you're in my top list too... it's so hard to narrow down!0 -
Almost all of my MFP friends are awesomely amazing, but someone who definitely stands out is jzim! She's so supportive and a total rockstar. I'm so glad that she and I are friends 'cause she is a HUGE motivator, and wants absolutely everyone to be the best strongest them that they can be.
Like I said before, there are so many great folks on here, and most of my friends are really amazing, but I wanted to definitely shoutout to jzim.

I love when people tell me way to go and great burn but deep down that doesn't drive me or help me cause that is just the after effect of what I have done, that doesn't get said and done till the dust has settled so to speak. I think we all deep down inside need to give OURSELVES props before anyone else, cause no one makes you wake up every morning and make conscious decisions in eating and working out other then ourselves. No MFP member is standing next to us when we take the high road, no MFP member is their in the back of your mind telling you to get on that treadmill or add that extra 5 lbs to your dumbbells today or telling you that you best go to the gym instead of slacking off....
SO LETS GIVE IT TO OURSELVES AS THAT MFP FRIEND THAT YOU TURN TO!!!!!!! HOOOOORAY!!!!
From the most motivational song I know
Have Heart-Armed with a Mind
"caked up and faked up,
she's obsessed with the outside.
nothing earned, too afraid to fail.
so she leads a hollow life void of insight
loving what you see, but you fear what you think
because of your mind and your body
there's a missing ****ing link
that leaves you vulnerable, susceptible to pain
you're a garden of potential submerged in the rain
i said true beauty, cant be seen, with the eyes
ARMED, armed with a mind
i'm gonna strengthen my action with thought
make use of the gift i got
and walk fearless because i'm armed-with-a-mind
a weak offense when you step to this
mind over matter is power over fists
i walk fearless because i'm armed with-a-mind
i walk fearless with a mind far greater than just a ****ing fist.
spineless and mindless. you flex your muscles and not your ****ing head
a deep man with a strong point made without one thoughtful word said?
"huff and puff", the fierce fists will do the talking
cant speak for yourself so your "crew"'s with you walking
tell me whats worth fighting for...
and it better be something greater than an evening of the score
boy, your true strength sleeps behind your eyes!
its the absent minded fool who's afraid to think,
to extend an open hand,
to dare to earn a thing.
its the gift inside our heads not to take for granted..
because an unexamined life is a seed unplanted.
as the animals, they cant reason
but as humans we can.
so are you just a wild animal or a rational man?
our bodies bring us nowhere, might does NOT make right.
theres a gift inside your head"

My friend mfp and out bhb301(Brenda)....If it wasn't for her I would have never joined this site...She doesn't always comment on my stuff nor do I hers, but she knows I'm here for her and I know she's here for me when needed. She's not scared of hurting my feelings(which is done easily I might add), but she's not afraid to encourage me either. I love her and she is probably one of my very few TRUE friends in my life!!
Also I don't think this thread is to hurt feelings, I would like to think ALL of our friends know they are appreciated as we encourage and interact with each other on our personal pages....I think this is more or less to really say that person who you know is there no matter what, especially when our friends lists are growing and growing.0 -

Aww, can... You sure know how to make me feel special. I appreciate your garlic breath...it keeps haters at bay.0 -

Love all my MFPers.
I most probably wouldn't have done nearly as well as I have without this site and some terrific support.
That being said I really enjoy my friend WhitneyW78.
She is positive, supportive, encouraging, and helpful.
She is hilarious and cracks me up daily. She is a terrific inspiration and has accomplished so very much.
Love her attitude and slightly warped view of her end of the world....lol.
I enjoy "her ramblings" and look forward to reading her blog everyday and go into withdrawals on the weekends.
Keep on...Keepin' on....0 -
to many to talk about !!!
V, Fesse, LKM, Sun, Roj, Pammie, Foxy, SJD, IS !

That said i think everyone on MFP (on my list or not) is Effing great and all rock! so there !

I really have too many to name, which is awesome. Thank you to everyone who keeps encouraging me 0

ok if I had to pick one and only one that it would be without a doubt Ninyagwa (Nicole). She is supper supportive, funny, and not afraid to call you out if she is concerned or whatever.
However there are a couple of good ones to mention~~ FaerieMoon - super supportive and funny, LeeKetty1176 - also highly entertaining and supportive, I honestly don't think there is a day that goes by that he doesn't comment on something that I did, plus he did the walk across america challenge that inspired me to get my big *kitten* moving again! And I can't forget Fesse! She is awesome!!
Well I could go on and on cause all of my friends are awesome but I will stop there! :happy:0 -

I want to say...
*karincakes* for her serious dedication. She gets out there and does it, over coming pain and injury like it's nothing!!
*nam14uk* has made a serious transformation and amazes me when she posts up those 1000+ calorie burns. You never hear excuses from her!! She just DOES it!
:flowerforyou:
*Blush* thanks Rach!! Those high burns get harder to hit but I love that challenge!
There are loads of friends on here that initially pushed me. Initially it was Laughingdani and her huge zumba burns when I first started on here! Dani made me realise that you can workout enough to burn big numbers (even though she may not have known it)! Then Karincakes who was and still is so dedicated to P90X that is something to most definitely draw inspiration from as well as pushing through with the running despite injury - I have total faith in you for your upcoming race!!!
The list goes on but that's it for now!0 -

I have so very many who are valued and keep me motivated - but I have two people who have had major impact and I'm proud to be able to call them my besties. And they mean the world to me beyond mfp but in RL as well. MöbiusMan and SunLovin1. They have both had AMAZING success - mobi has conquered health issues through sheer discipline and I don't know anyone else whose done that without meds. Sun is a trusted friend who has lost weight and sculpted the most AMAZING arms and shoulders. She does this all while working a kick *kitten* job and raising her sons. Like she said, she is my doppelgagnger separated only by the cheddar curtain. You both know it but I love you both more than posts can say. Cannot WAIT for the road trip meet up!!!0

OMG Brian!! Thanks so much...that is an honor coming from you! You too would be one of my top friends on here...I know that I can look to you for advice and motivation when I need it! And I know, that you know, how to get this journey done the right way, but also know how to live your life still! You are a true inspiration to me and MANY people on here...so thank you for that!! :happy: *hugs*There are too many to list, like you said, but as far as "the Struggle", and someone who motivates me by doing, and who I see simply as a warrior, is tjradd73. I don't think failure is a word in her vocabulary, and she is just always so consistent and locked in to what she is doing. She is fierce and I'm so glad to know her and have her in my corner. She'll probably kill me for writing this, but she should be praised for how awesome she is, and how awesome she has done! She's also a future member of the 100lb club and anyone who can do that is a total bad *kitten* in my book!! Thanks Tara....Big hugs to you and lots of love for helping me more than you could ever realize!!0
