Seeking friends to hold me accountable

Hi! I'm Kathy, a 44 year old TALL blonde female from Yorktown, Virginia. I have lost 30 pounds over the last three months with MFP and Atkins diet. I'm looking to lose about 100 more pounds, though I could stand to lose about 125-140. I am looking for friends who will drop me a line every now and again (and the favor will be returned) to just check up on me and to hold me accountable. I promise to be reaffirming yet firm in returning support. All you need to do is send me a friend request... no one will be denied!
Thanks ahead of time for helping me reach my goal. Let's do this thing!

Hi,
My name is Valerie, and If you would like, you can add me as a friend. I've found such a wonderful support group here on MFP.
So much advice and positive encouragement...and don't forget, we keep each other accountable too. I, for sure, need that.
Good Luck and God Bless :-)0 -

Hi Kathy, I have been using this site for the past 2 weeks. I have really been thrilled to find something so easy to use! I have done WW and other things in the past and couldn't stay committed. My daugter-in-law told me about the site and it has helped me soooo much. I log my foods EVERY DAY and being able to see what I have eaten and how many calories I have left and how many calories any given excerise will burn for me has had an awesome effect on me! I would be happy to try to encourage you along the way! I never wanted to count calories because it was so much trouble to me. My brother who has had a weight problem stemming from a near fatal car accident and losing some of his walking abilities, has in the past 2 adn a half months lost 38 lbs ....counting calories! He wants to lose another 50 and has been doing great...he has been a real inspiration to me! if others can do it we can too! By the way I am 48 a little older than you but I am glad to find someone close to my age wnating to do the same thing I want to do!! Stay committed!
Oh I havent been able to figure out the ticker but I have lost 3.6 lbs since I started last Monday and am aiming at the 25 lb goal at this time.:)
