Newbie looking for friends and support!

So I signed up for MFP awhile ago and never really gave it a shot. I saw the app on my phone and that drew me back in so I figured Id actually give it a shot this time. I mean what do I have to lose other than weight right?

Im a 29 year old stay at home mom and have decided that it's about time to change my ways. As a bunch of people have already said, it's a lifestyle change not a diet. With the help of my husband and my brother (and hopefully some friends here on MFP) I am looking forward to losing weight and getting healthier.

I am thinking about doing Ripped in 30 (completed the first day today), maybe start the couch 2 5k program, and probably family walks in the evening. I want to at least do Ripped in 30 for one round to see how that works and from there make a decision to do it again or do something else, although I have heard good things about it. I am also going to start counting calories and making better choices with healthier eating and quit eating and drinking junk.

So if theres anyone who wants to be my friend and wants to support each other feel free to add me!!

    Hi,

    I haven't branched out to adding friends other than my family and personal friends so far, but I would like to. You can be my first! :) I am very motivated. I tried MFP over a year ago and gave up. This time I joined a Weight Loss Challenge at my GYM and am learning new things everyday that I would love to share with others. I brought my mom and aunt in on the healthy kick as well! Here for Support!!!! :) Nice to Meet ya!

    Feel free to add me, i think im motivational through my actions and support. Those are great programs to get you on track, but i think finding what makes you the happiest is the the ultimate goal. Good luck
