Hey everyone,

So I've been on MFP for about a month now. The first month has been really hard, and I think that might partially be due to the fact that I can't help I feel I'm in this alone. I don't have much of a support system. Both of my roommates are over-weight and neither of them seem to be willing to go on a weight loss journey themselves.. But I definitely want this and I don't want anyone holding me back...

So I guess what I'm trying to say is if there's anyone out there willing to add me as a friend? I'm on MFP a lot, and would like to have some friends to support me, and I will support them on their journey as well!

    I added you! I am brand new here, but I have already learned how important it is to have that support system. I'm lucky that I DO get a lot of support in the rest of my life, but that wasn't always the case so I know what it is like. You just have to remember (and I keep telling myself this) that sometimes you have to put yourself first and make yourself important.
