edited September 2024 in Motivation and Support
Hey everyone, I've been on my weight loss journey since November 2009 and have lost 30 lbs. I am still hoping to loose another 15 lbs. I've been on MFP now for about a year, but I haven't committed to logging calories in the past 6+ months like I did in the beginning (current circumstances have changed). So, I am going to really give it another try again. I LOVED the wonderful support shown by friends and members here, and I would like to ask anyone to feel free to add me as a friend. I will do my best to support you as well.

How many of you are from Alabama? I live in north Alabama and would love to have more friends in the area as well. Even if you're not from Alabama, I'd love to hear from you! I would just like to build up my motivational network of friends here on MFP. A lot of friends I once interacted with more than 6 months ago are no longer active on the site. To those friends who have pushed me when I wasn't feeling it, you're kind words and determination do not go unnoticed!

    I live in Scottsboro Alabama. I have been on MFP for about 4 and a half months now. I have lost 53 lbs. since January( some before MFP) I love this site and try to support and motivate friends as much as possible, but a couple of days a week or so, I do not get to comment on here, as I get too busy sometimes. But most days I read others posts and comment. Any one can add me as a friend if they would like. All I ask is if you like to use foul language, then please do not add me. I am a christian lady and do not want to hear or read nasty junk.
