I wanted to thank my good MFP friends who have inspired,encouraged and helped me and figured you were sucjh good frends i wanted to share you with other motivated people. Just a note to all the new folk though if you friend these folks and they are nice enough to accept you need to be active. We (I include myself) want friends who are active on MFP and are here because they want a healthier life style. I am posting this in hopes of finding some elite MFPers. If i am posting on the message boards actively I will get 1 to 3 friend invites, but its usually folks who are active only a week or so. So here are my top friends in no certain order, iI will also tell why and how they have helped me. I sure hope they don't mind me throwing their call signs out for the world. To all my friends that didnt make my top list no offense I still need you and you still help me so dont be upset..

Wattsja- 194 pounds lost and just hit 420 days consecutive logging in. Very Supportive and active.

Tankplanker- P90X GOD!!! Helped me on many occassions with nutritional advice. 83 pounds lost , He is taking a little break
from logging in right now. He will be back stronger than ever.

rgoodearl- Another P90X success story, 285+ days logging in, extremely active and helpful with personal training and nutrion.

pauljsolie- Insanity graduate and over all great attitude, Paul was doing Insanity when I was on P90X. We helped each other
through it. Paul has lost over 79 pounds.

nhhairston and Bridgethairston- My Fitclub partners, FANTASTIC ATTITUDE,Bridget is like the energizer bunny, but because she is in such great shape, she is not on here a whole lot, (maybe 3-4 times a week) but if you need beachbody info, or have Shakeology questions ask her or nhhairston. nhhairston is my beachbody coach, he is the one who referred me to P90X. I was going to do insanity and his knowledge of beachbody probably saved me some knee injuries.

Michellular- Another Fitclubber, and another energizer bunny. Very upbeat attitude and has been very supportive. Over 300 days logged onto MFP. Very knowledgible in Turbo jam, Turbo Fire, and The Shaun T videos

Mandygal13-over 65 days(had a couple of missed days or I bet it would be around 250) and has lost 50.2 pounds(you go girl
and go green team) Mandy has really turned up her workouts UP lately. She vis ery active and supportive. Her
bootie is looking good in some new jeans she just bought.

Lorinalynn- She eats her exercise calories. 415 consecutive days Ladies if you need motivation her story tells it all. She is a
Warrior. With her advice I finished Warrior dash, Her photos of Warrior dash inspired me. To all you ladies starving
yourself I reccomend you read some of her stuff on the message boards.

jajfromga- Another fitclubber, recently started MFP and is in the process of P90X, has lost 12.2 pounds. Not real active yet on
the boards due to being new. Try friending him and give him some MFP support

Bigpelly- If you look at his page someone else has just sent a big shout to Pelley. He has logged in for a whopping 490 days,
now thats dedication. He has lost 153 pounds. Way to go bud.

You all are my inpiration and thank you for all of your help and support, Some of you just your success and your photos have given me encouragement. I hope that I can help people on here in return. I am starting P90X2 monday with nhhairston, and would love to add some ACTIVE members,P90x almost killed me but i made it thanks to all of you.

So I would like to see who your top friends are, I would love to read about them and hopefully add some folks. PS i got some inactive folks I will be deleting I only want active people who are committed to a healthier lifestyle.

    I only have 17 friends so this shouldn't be too hard.

    #1 is fatboy255 (thanks for the kind words Jake) He has been with me the longest and I have learned alot of good tips from him. His sense of humor and sense of committment is something to be admired. And he's catching up to me, better do another round of Insanity. I think he has done every Beachbody program out there.

    #2 is Amandanorylynn. She has been with me almost as long as Jake, she always has some positive encouragement for me when I get down. She commented practically every day on my blog when I was struggling through the 60 days of Insanity and for that I thank you!

    #3 is Zen_Master_B. This guy hasn't been very vocal and he logs in consistently every day and has a great sense of humor. I met him in one of my forum posts when I asked which is better, the Ninja or Magic Bullet. He responded with a comment about the JFK assasination, I almost pee'd my pants and thought I gotta be this kids friend. Thanks for being there for me 'B'

    #4 is SeanC86. He is a fellow Minnesotan and is currently in the military overseas. He is coming home soon and I've enjoyed watching his progress, even though it's on the other side of the world. I thank God for guys like Sean who have put their country first and have sacrificed to keep us safe here at home.

    #5 is peaches712799, I hold a special place in my heart for her, she and I met on another weight loss website which I won't name here and she has been a great source of encouragement for me. I'm going to meet her sometime in the near future when I get my car working well enough to leave the neighborhood.

    My older brother, marksolie is in my friends list and most of the rest I have only gotten to know in the past couple weeks. I've been kind of lax with MFP for a couple months so these people are my newest friends. I have to say that I am surrounded by probably the best and most active group of friends since joining MFP about 3 years ago while working on Guam. Great thread idea Jake.

    my newest friends from whom I gain much humor and support
    tootsnpops-super active newsfeed
    JodyGirl29-I know her from the other website as well
    MzButterfly32-kinda quiet but always consistent
    tsh0ck-what can I say, this guy makes me laugh, alot and founder of the ORLB
    MaximalLife-this guy IS Mr. MFP
    miseryhead75-a new friend, she liked my ORLB logo
    candiceforchrist-a Godly woman, she helps me to remember to keep the faith
    Elizabeth_C34-what can I say, this gal makes me laugh, alot. I could be friends with her in real life
    longhaul64-this guy is just starting out, he truly has a long road ahead and he has surrounded himself with good friends
    bobNV-is new to my list but very active here, looking forward to getting to know him better
    moran1917-she is my newest friend, always offering encouragement on my newsfeed, thanks for that.
