    Hello fellow Houstonians!! My name is Sharon and I joined this group in hopes of being able to support one another through a long, but worth it, journey! :)

    I've always been overweight and I've tried many different ways to lose weight. I'd lose some weight, then gain it all back. No more excuses, I'm going to lose the weight and lose it for good! Please don't hesitate to friend me! One can never have too many friends :D

    Good day Houstonians! My name is Christine and although I'm not new to MFP, I've been inactive. So today I'm restarting my journey to get more fit and adopt some healthier habits. I'm a 30 year old newlywed who lives in the Pearland area. I would love to make some friends on here to help motivate me and I'll do the same!

    Hey y'all! I'm Angela I'm 30 years old. I'm from League City. I'm trying to lose about 50 pounds or at least 4 dress sizes before my wedding. July 2015. I have a while but it's been hard. I could really use a workout buddy but so far none of my friends are interested. :( I go to 24 hour fitness on 646 if anyone is interested in a workout buddy!

    Hey y'all! Im Shaleen, I've been in Houston for officially 10 months this week. I moved from up north so its been a bit of a challenge but when it comes down to it I believe that my move here has helped me realize a lot of things including its time to get serious about loosing weight and Im so excited for it. Ive been large my entire life - my parents never modeled good eating or working out behavior so its time to re-teach and re-learn!

    Im always looking for people to get together with and walk - even do other work outs together. I live on the south eastern side but Im always willing to explore more of Houston.

    Feel free to add me as a friend - make sure to say hi or something in an email. :)

    Have a fantastic day!

    Hi Everyone! I'm Anna and live in the Katy Area....I am not new here but in the past have been quite the inactive member of MFP. I am going to change that this year. I want to change my current lifestyle to a healthier one, however, its kind of tough when you work full time, are a full time student and a single mom. Good Luck to all!

    Hey all! I'm Angie. I've been in Houston for almost 2 years now. I have been on mfp for over a year but have been pretty inactive. I'm hoping to change that. Within the past year, I had been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and pcos, which has made weight loss unbelievably difficult for me. I am at a point now where I need to make some changes for my own health and I finally feel ready to do that. I'm in the Spring/Tomball area. If anyone wants to request me (or perhaps looking for a workout partner), please feel free:)

    Hi Everyone!

    David here. 35 in four days. I have about 30 lbs left to go. My main motivation is my son. I don't want him to grow up embarrassed that his dad is overweight. His mommy cooks so well! I'm just having to learn to eat less. I'm not an emotional eater, just a volume eater, and as the youngest of three boys, that makes sense. I always had to compete for food.

    I've lost 60 before on WW, but gained back about 30 of it. This time I want to make it down below where I was with WW and then maintain.

    Anyways, looking for a few friends, so feel free to add me!

    -David

    Hi!

    I haven't logged on here in months. Not sure if I've previously introduced myself. My name is Nae. I will be 30 in early July. I'm hoping to finally shed the weight that I've gained from emotional eating and depression. I was diagnosed with infertility 3 years ago and I've been on a downward spiral ever since. I'm currently pursuing the adoption process through CPS and I would like to deal with my weight before I finally become a parent. In desperate need of support and motivation. So here I am. Lol

    Hi Everyone!

    My name is Dom from the Energy Corridor. I'm 31 years old and I really can't remember a time when I was thin. I had been a fat kid, then became a fatter adult. I've been trying to fix that and had some success where I'd lose 30-40lbs but gain it all back. Now I think I am at a point where I can do this. I've dropped 77lbs so far and would like to lose another 30-40 but I don't have a set goal. I do a lot of powerlifting at the 24hr Fitness on Dairy Ashford and Westheimer but I have been adding more cardio into my workouts as well.
