Hi, I'm Jenny and I'm 26. I've been on MFP for about a month, and I absolutely love it. I want to find some friends that share my interests. I'm a serious sci-fi nerd, I love hula-hooping and body mod (tattoos and piercings mostly) and burlesque. I've always been overweight, but as a life-long serial dieter I never thought a group like this would make a difference. Boy was I wrong! This has given me a sense of routine, which is something I just can't function without, and now it's giving me a way to make friends with similar goals.

My Stats:
HT: 5'4"
HW: 240+ (I never checked in those days)
SW: 192.8 (starting MFP)
CW: 185.6
GW: 129 (because I haven't seen a 12- on the scale since I was 13)

My lowest ever weight was somewhere in the 130's back in high school. I lost about 70 lbs that time but I did it too fast and in very unhealthy ways, so I gained it all back and then some very quickly. This time it's slow, steady, and FOR LIFE.

So... whaddaya think? Wanna be friends?

    Hi, I'm Steve a 46 yo from the UK.

    It would probably be easier to list what we don't have in common:

    I am a man
    I am 46 (47 next week)
    I don't have any piercings
    I used to be able to hula hoop in my youth but not anymore
    I'm not really a sci fi nerd

    In common:

    I do have a tattoo (or 3)
    I am on MFP

    But if you want support I am more than happy to provide it. I have been on MFP since January and found it an excellent way to keep count of my calories and motivate me to go to the gym.

    So feel free to add me as a friend but don't worry I won't be offended if I don't fit the profile that you want as friends on this site.

    I'm already your friend Jenny! YAY

    But who doesn't love more friends....

    About me:
    I love Boston Terriers, Salsa Dancing, Korean Food, Korean Language, KOREA and anything to do with it (I was an exchange student there), and traveling the world.I also love dancing of all sorts and all kinds of music, from punk to latin. I have tattoos, used to have lots of piercings but the only that remains is my nose ring. I have a new addiction to running and zumba. And i like friends on MFP that are interactive, and not like facebook when you add people and never hear from them again. I just took my before pictures yesterday,, maybe in 3-4 months when I've lots more than 5lbs i will post a (in process) photo along with it.

    HT: 5'7"
    HW: 197
    SW: 197 (starting MFP)
    CW: 193.2
    GW: 150
