Newbie looking for friends trying to lose around 50 lbs.

Hello MFP! My name is Miquan. I reside in Brooklyn, NY. I'm fairly new to this and seek support and accountabilty. I'll be doing this for a while and it wouldn't hurt to have some friends to do it with. Hit me if you're interested.

  • I feel you msoriano4. One day when I was at work, I had gone to the bathroom, washed my hands and did the mirror check...I literally did not recognize myself. Smh - I don't ever want to look like that again. I have too many health issues as is and like you a family to care for. Good luck to you and I hope we can be that push that each other needs.

    Feel free to add me. I've been losing since June but only on here for the last month. It's not easy but well worth it when you can post before and after pics. Make sure you get pics and measurements as these will be a better guide and motivator than the scale. Good Luck!
  • Oooh pick me, pick me :flowerforyou: I started at 195 on MFP (roughly 200 before) and I am trying to reach 150 pounds with 20% body fat. Would be glad to support your endeavors :drinker:
  • Feel free to add me! - I'm quite knowledge when it come down to health and I'm willing to give you all the motivation you need / want!

    feel free to add me if you would like. I've been using MFP since January and it has really really helped me and with the support of friends I have on here has really helped me stay focused and not give up. We can do this!

    I just joined 10 minutes ago and want to lose just over 50. I just got vacation pictures off my camera today and did not realize how I've let myself go! So here I am, determined not to be horrified by next year's vaca pics. Feel free to add me!

    Hi everyone,

    I just joined. I am also looking to loose 50lbs. My hope is that this site will keep me motivated, I usually have a great start and then let myself go all over again. The time has come to get healthy, get in shape, and to remain focused on this task. Add me and lets keep one another accountable!

    -Dee
