Hello From MISSOURI

Exqitblkprl

Hello all of you wonderful people! My name is Pearl and I'm here because I'm an emotional night time eater. Which has landed me in the horrible shape that I'm in now. I'm making 2009 mine. I'll be 54 years old this year and for years I've kept telling myself I can't be a fox when I get older if I don't start taking necessary steps now. Well, older is here and I'm not the fox I want to be. So I'm taking charge now. I've said enough is enough and I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. I am so done with being the fat girl. I want to rid myself of 80 to 100 pounds of artery choking fat. My sister found and joined this site and shortly after told me about it and viola!!! here I am. I love the tools this site has and I hope to make loads of friends who know first hand the struggles of losing weight and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I wish each and every one on this site the very best of luck and happy healthy living!!!

P.S. Could anyone tell me how to add friends to my page. I have looked high and low, obviously I'm missing something because I don't see a place where friends can be added. Think it's a classic case of can't see the forest for the trees, I'm looking so hard, LOL.

welcome! I have been here nearly 3 weeks now and LOVE this site. The people are great, the tools are great, and the support is great!

To add a friend click on their profile, and at the top next to their name there is a place you can click to add them, and then the person will have to "approve" it.

Good luck on your journey!

I would like to know the same thing about finding and adding friends.

Oh Great age1389 I will do that now. I'm not sure where Ozark is from here either. Maybe a couople of hrs or so probably. But that's ok, I'm glad to know another person from MO, lol.

When you create your ticker, go to my home, click on settings, click on change signature forum, and then paste the code the ticker gives you there. It should then show up. Good luck on your weight loss journey and welcome to MFP :flowerforyou: :drinker:
