A Re-Introduction...

I'm returning to MFP after a hiatus that shouldn't have lasted as long as it did (4 months). I'm looking for new MFP friends, since all my old MFP friends have basically reached their goal weight and do not take MFP as seriously anymore. When I was a member here back in April/May 2011, I lost 13 pounds in just over a month. My husband and I are hoping to start trying for a baby early next year, and I am looking to lose roughly 30-40 lbs before we start trying. I am planning on maintaining weight-loss while trying to conceive and still sticking around and keeping a healthy, balanced diet once we do become pregnant! My original starting weight was 216.5 lbs. I was down to 203.0 lbs. I am not sure what my current weight is, because I want to start weighing myself at the same day/time weekly.

I am looking for ladies in the 200 lb. range who are looking to reach a goal weight of 140-150 lbs. But, I am willing to friend anyone who is positive and supportive and would like a positive and supportive friend in return! =)

  • You have me! :-) I started at 203 lbs and am at 166 lbs right now. I'm still nowhere near where I'd like to be, I'm not at a comfortable weight yet, so I'm still sticking it out and pushing along. I know you did the treadmill a lot before but maybe you can look into doing different things. If you have a Wii, that would be something different - our bodies grow tired and bored of the same exercises, so be sure to switch up your exercises this time. :-) Add some cardio, do some strength training, and you'll start seeing the numbers drop again in no time.

    Good luck! And remember, I'm still here! *hugs*

  • I have been using MFP on and off for a while, but I am recommitting! I am at my highest weight now (222 lbs) and my goal is in the 150s range. I would love some friends to keep the motivation up! :happy:
