Hi guys!! My name is Josette and I'm a 34 year old mother to four kiddos. Tomorrow will be a month that I've been using MFP app and today I decided to check out the forum. :o) I am proud to say that within this month of working out 6 days a week and counting my calories, I have lost 19 lbs. I was hoping to find some folks that would be interested in being my friends to help keep me motivated. I'm the type that becomes obsessive about my current passion but after a few months it dies away. I've gone down the long road to better health in 2009 and lost 90lbs but I'm sad to say, I became lazy and unmotivated and gained back more than half the weight I lost. I don't want that to happen again, it terrifies me. I figured if I had friends that had a similar goal, we could motivate each other to stay focus and not fall off track. Any takers??? :o)

    Jenny, I received your request.

    Kelly, I don't know how to add anyone. This is my first time ever logging on to the site. I want to add you but I'm not sure how. :o( Also, how do you add that cool ticker? I made one but I can't figure out where to attach it.

    My fitness Pal is a great place for motivation. Just add a lot of people and log in everything, even if you have a day where you went over your calories. Congratulations on your weight loss. :smile:
