    Okay, first - totally agreed on jzim. She was one of my first friends on MFP when I started in April, and everything that's been said about her - TOTALLY agreed. She's awesome and her dedication and achievements motivate me to keep on trucking.

    Lachsis - Sandy is truly one of the best friends that I've made on MFP. She's made a huge impact on my life in the short time that I've known her. I love her to BITS and can't explain how much her support and encouragement means to me.

    500lbstomarathon - Gary has quickly become a very good friend to me. I am inspired by everything that he's achieved and am so blessed to be in his circle of friends.

    LeeKetty1176 - Lee's rowing challenge has gotten me up off my *kitten* and working out so much harder than I ever thought I could do. His friendship and support have been huge in my success.

    Kinda79 - Kinda is another super close friend of mine that I look forward to talking with an confiding in. Her encouragement makes all the difference in the world. Her HUGE burns make me want to work so much harder.

    gdr1976 - Glen's words of support make me want to work harder. As I was just telling him recently - I don't like to let people down and knowing that he's looking to me makes me want to be better.

    MassiveDelta - The changes Micah has made in his life really make me want to strive to go further. His accomplishments in the triathalons show me that it can be done with hard work and determination.

    The rest of my MFP family - I want to be better because of so many of you. I love you guys and I am thankful for all of the supportive, kind, inspirational words that you've provided me. *squishes* to each of you.

    Friends that inspire me:
    The ones that had the courage to face their eating disorders.
    The ones that keep up the motivation in the face of pain and illness.
    The ones that recognized that they needed a change in their lives.
    The ones who stay here to help others.
    The ones that do everything they can to make this place fun.
    PERFECTLY SAID!

    Every single on I have is really special to me. I have to say OneBryteSmile is always there cheering me on, even on my worst of days. She's helped me pull through more than she knows. And garrettsmommy is always helping me with any question I have, when it comes to the beachbody products and she's so supportive. And anytime I need anything she's right there to help. Also there's quara, you've never given up no matter what. I love that about you! And of course my sis MyriahTurn30, she's helped inspired me to become a healthier version of myself. If she can find time to workout with 2 young kids and look as great as she does, then there's no excuse for me.
    But in all honest anyone who's every given me a great job, or Way to go, you've helped keep me going. You've all made me want to work harder, and for that I thank you all!

    Great post! Well... I'm so thankful to all of my MFP friends but Sknopps is the one that introduced me to this site and I really feel like she saved my life. At a starting weight of 335 pounds, things weren't looking good for me. She has been my number 1 inspiration and I am so very proud of her & thankful to her for encouraging me on a daily basis ;-)

    My husband.... Chewy7410. He is my daily inspiration and I love him so much!!

    Totally agree about Jzim as well! I have followed her journey for only a short 60 days but she is such an inspiration!!

    BCFossett~ Her encouraging words & scripture continually lift me up and help me through this journey!

    500lbs2Marathon~ Gary probably doesn't know my name but he inspires me so much! I follow his blogs, sites, & page fanatically (don't worry, I'm not gonna like stalk him or anything! lol).

    Genem30~ Him & I are neck & neck with our weight loss and a little friendly competition makes me happy :-) He's also super funny & I enjoy reading his posts! lol

    kylee_marie~ She's a new local friend I've "met" on MFP. I can tell she's such a hard worker and is rockin it!

    And to all of you guys who comment on my posts, diary completions, weight loss, etc. You guys are all so awesome and keep me going! Without all of you guys, I would not be where I am today & still going strong!!

    Nyodra, Bearpie, BekJ, rmsrws, astovey, GenerationD05, BecomingMyself, iamahealthychick, mosneakers, Namaste1983, ADTeachTX, maab_connor, eed_bookworm, VeganGal84 (& hopefully I haven't forgotten anyone but if I have. I'm sorry.. you know who you are! lol) I still have such a long way to go... but with all of my MFP friends.... you're helping make this a wonderful new lifestyle :-)

    I keep my friendliest pretty short, not into large lists because I want a more personal feel and to be able to support fully back, but those I named above have gave me beyond and above the encourage I needed at times they probably didn't realize I needed it most. I am not an emotional person and wouldn't mope around looking for attention, the people listed above for one reason or another have done something that would make it impossible for me to delete them off my friendliest which I trim to around 50 - 60 as people stop logging in. I enjoy everyone I have on my list and you kow if you disappear for a few days you will get pms from me everyday from 3 days on til about 12 days. I want everyone to suceede! Thank you friends for everything you have done.
