in Introduce Yourself
My name is Jessica and I am looking for friends that have the same goals in mind. I've been trying to lose weight for a while and I think that having friends to hold me accountable is just what I need. I would like to share this experience with someone and I think it would be easier not to go through this alone.

    Hi Jessica! I haven't been on here long, and only lost 5 lbs. - haven't even been tracking my food or exercising much this week - got off track - however, thanks to two of my fitness pals, tomorrow will be a better day - your pals WILL motivate you and keep you going on days when you don't feel like it! Exercise (anything) and water are key components - also, trying to eat 6 small meals a day will keep your blood sugar at an even keel to keep your metabolism burning........apple slices with a little peanut butter really helps me. Send me a note to let me know how you're doin! -keep on swimmin, swimmin, swimmin! - Sharon

    Welcome to MFP. It is a wonderful site. I have been using it for one year now (my one year anniversary was yesterday) and have been able to lose 65.5 pounds (I have about another 15 pounds to go). Just take it one day at a time, log in your food intake (as much as possible) and start moving and you will see some positive results. Feel free to add me as a friend :-)

    Hi Jessica. My name is Marlana. I started on this journey 3 years ago. I am trying to take it slow so that it is easier to keep off. I had 80 lbs to lose and so far I have lost 40. It has not been easy. I have had a lot of stress in my life as of lately...disabled husband and my daughter diagnosed and fighting cancer, but if you want it bad enough, you can do it. There is nothing that can stop you if it is what you really want. I never realized that until my daughter was diagnosed. Stress is one of the biggest hurdles when losing weight and I was able to do it at my age (48). If I can do it anyone can. I have been a big girl for most of my life and now I feel so much better. I know I am only half way there but I also know I will get there.
    You can do this!!!!! And don't let anyone tell you different.

    I just signed up and have about the same to lose. I've been on another program but stalled out and stopped applying myself. I actually think I'll get more support here, so I am open to building a friend network here.
