Hi, Vicky! So glad you reached out! Feel free to add me, as well. I have some incredibly supportive friends, and I can't help but think that you'd benefit from their encouragement, too!

Hi Vicky!

I would love to have you as a friend on here! I was the same way - on the site for a while - and once I introduced myself and became more active I noticed I was holding myself more accountable. The encouragement I get from my MFP friends is great.

My weight loss goal is similar, and until recently I was trying to do the MFP without friends or support. It was challenging to log in everyday, and to be responsible with my nutrition and activity choices. I'm trying to add lots more friends too, as the transparency is a big motivator for me!!
(Would love lots more friends, add please!)

Hi Vicky - You can add me too. I started on myfitnesspal.com yesterday (but I am on weight watchers as well - paying $$ for quite a long time). I started this as I have been slightly frustrated with my progress. If I can be of any help to you it would be my pleasure & I wish you great success!

You should unlock your diary so your friends can give you advice that way too. Good luck!

happythermia

Add me! at the very least, I'm entertaining!

bendyournotes

Hey guys! I just joined the site today. I have tried MFP in the past, but without much support or really getting into the community, it just wasn't working out. Here's to round 2! Feel free to add me, and if anyone has any advice, I'd love to hear it!

I was up to 217 about 5 months ago....im now around 170. Howd I do it? Moderation, moderation, moderation......and some excersize. When Id get home from work, id literally eat til i went to bed.....Im suprised I was only 217 at my heaviest. I got sick of being slow, out of breath, and out of shape for a 33 year old...so I decided I was gonna do something about it. Best thing to do to lose weight is TRY not to eat so much(at a time) and when you do eat, try to eat healthy. No pizza, no fast food, no sodas, etc(trust me, its hard but sooooo worth it when you see what it can do to your body)......next and probably most importantly, try to find stuff to do to increase your health. For example: watching tv? during commercials, do jumping jacks or run in place. I did that for 2 months and lost 20 lbs. Run at least a mile every other day. Find heatlhy foods that take away the cravings of bad foods that somewhat taste like the good ones. My example(and I have a bunch): Those Quaker Stila bars taste just like pop tarts. If I get a sweet tooth, most times i'll eat some fruit. Another thing, and its a pretty big deal....DONT STARVE YOURSELF! Eat but dont go crazy. Snack a few times a day on low cal and low fat foods. It all sounds hard but once you get in that mode and you see results in the mirror, it becomes addicting to improve your health and body. Having a hard time with the taste of certain foods? I did as well, but you end up getting a taste for things and youll forget what some of that other crap tasted like. I drink fat free milk now as opposed to whole milk and I wouldve probably puked that stuff up before I got on this health kick. Anyway, there are a million ways to lose weight, but most consist of excersize and eating right, but if you stick with a diet plan and stay motivated, youll do fine and be where you wanna be weight-wise in no time.

Hi Vicky,

Ditto on your sentiments. I'm a bit slow w/ things so I still need to figure out how to "friend". It's really quite pathetic actually! But once I get it down, I'd be happy to share tips, advice and encouragement. Good Luck!
