    We're all here to help one another out, and it helps reading everyone's food diaries for new meal ideas. Anyone can add me as a friend with a brief message =)

    Hi everybody!!! My name is Anne and I recently got type 1 diabetes. I was in the hopsital for a good part of a week because i was very close to dying :( i lost alot of muscle mass and water weight and now i gained it all back. I want to get down to 150-145 so that means i would need to lose at least 28 lbs. I know i can do it (it might take me some time) but i would like as many friends as i can get since they encourage me!

    Anyone is welcome to add me!!!

    Love friends on MFP!

    I am 65 with 25 pounds total to lose. I have pretty good eating habits, but can always improve. I like the support people give on MFP.

    That sounds like a good idea. Im Jeannette, 30 yrs old, I want to lose 75 more pounds (lost 25 already). I also want to get in better shape and lower the risk of hypertension (runs in the family and i want to avoid it as long as possible.)

    I like to see what other people are eating to get ideas. I also like the motivation of seeing other people succeed at their weight loss and fitness.

    Please feel free to add me.

    I'm Dijon, I have lost 40 lbs so and am aiming for 20 more, and ultimately 20 more after that. Which will but me at 160, a place i'm pretty sure I have never been. I just joined the National Guard and really wanted to prepared for that come Jan. 14 when I g to Basic training. I need supportive people who I can call friends because unfortunately I don't have much from my spouse. She keeps bringing junk into the house and my self control and free will are hard to restrain. Hope to talk to you all soon!

    Love this!

    I'm Colette from London UK, have about 50lbs to lose. Have lost 25 already although my ticker says different, I have been breaking down my weightless into small manageable goals and then starting from zero once they have been reached.

    Anyone who is motivational is free to add me :)

    I think this is a good idea.

    I'm Danny - From VA and I joined almost 3 months ago. I have lost 34 pounds already and am almost to my goal to get down to 195. I'm not sure if I want to keep going after my first goal, but I have thought about going down to 185... I'm 6 foot tall but don't want to be too thin

    This is definitely a lifestyle change, so please feel free to add me - I am on the phone app every day and try to log in to the website as often as I can...

I've lost 5 lbs so far, got 75 more to go! To help my weight loss, I'm currently doing JM's 30 Day Shred - just finished up day 3 on level 1 and I have a recumbent bike for extra cardio. Would love to connect with others!

    This is a thread started by someone with a Dalek as an avatar. How could I NOT respond. :)

    I'm 38 and have been trying to either lose or seriously tone the 20+ lbs I managed to pack on between getting married and having the Mirena. Well, Mirena's out, amazing husband is finally onboard with getting back into shape, I have the C25K app on my phone, and an exercise bike in my home. I'm ready to get back into shape.

    I'm always on the lookout for motivational and optimistic people in my corner!

    Let's do this!

    Allons-y!

    Im Duncan, professional beach bum (diving instructor) for 25 years, now doing something "sensible" (university degree) to get a "proper job" as my grannie used to say. Thank goodness there is only 9 months to go.

    I teach movie making during the summer in a private school just outside London, and when Im not freezing my small furries off in the north of England, I live in the Sinai desert in Egypt, teaching English and scuba diving.

    During the summer I gained weight, so this winter will not be one of discontent! I'm getting rid of it!
    Begone!

    Add me if you you fancy a chat.

    Sounds like a good plan to me. :bigsmile:

    My name is Suzanne, 27, looking to lose my last 50lbs or so..I have been on this journey for over 2 years now, (Started April 2010, Joined here in Sept '10) and my weight is still going up and down...my biggest gain was over majority of the Summer, and now trying to get back on track again, so yes, looking for support through the good and the bad. :smile:

    FYI- I struggle with emotional and binge eating due to stress, boredom etc..so I'm working on downsizing that habit too.

    Hi all :)
    My name is Kristen.
    I'm 26 years old.
    I'm 5'0"
    My highest weight was 206.
    Current weight is 187.
    My ultimate goal weight is 120.
    I was heavy up until my teen years where my lowest weight was 112. After my 3rd pregnancy I went into a depression and started drinking, not watching what I was eating, and just didnt care.
    My main reason for getting healthy is so that I can be here for my kids. I want to be able to keep up with them and also have more confidence in myself.
    I will be re-starting TurboFire and I also have Slim in 6 :)
    Good luck!
