    Hey guys, Im Adam, recently getting back into fitness and setting my goals really high this time. I have extreme dedication for short periods but tend to have a week or two of pure laziness and pizza every now and then. The people on here are great motivators so would be stoked to have more friends to kick my *kitten* when falling off the wagon a bit :-)

    I'm Lee (not Jimmy lol) anyway....Started losing weight 3 years ago when a new gym opened near by and have lost 4 stone and more. I then put a bit back on as I was looking scrawny and a few things happened in my life where I lost motivation. I have continued to go to the gym and never had more than 2-3 weeks off the gym, I've continued to tick over but diet has been patchy. I joined MFP to track my diet and it worked for a while but I lost motivation. I am ready to get back on the horse!

    Loads of people on here for support and advice.

    Anyone add me if you like!
  • Do you guys think may be we could all post here if we wanted friends added for support? We could just all post here and you can add whoever above you that you would like?

    Introduce yourself? May be talk about your goals and what you are looking for out of your MFP friends?


    I am Megan, 24 female, looking to loose and keep off forever about 60ish pounds.. want a lifestyle change not just a diet.

    I like to give positive comments



    (Remember to add people towards the end of the list as they have probably gotten less friend requests!)

    Hi Megan! I am a 21 year old female and I am about the same! I'd ALSO like to lose a minimum of 60 lbs! Max. of 80.

    About me, I lost 45-50 lbs after high school and gained it all back thanks to contraceptives 3: But feel free to add me!

I am on and off here many times through out they day and love give support as much as I like to get it
  • Hi everyone!

    My name is McKenna. I am 21 years old and I am a female. I am looking to lose a minimum of 60 lbs and a maximum of 80 lbs. I had lost 45 lbs a long while ago but gained it all back :(

    A little about myself:

    I have been a chunky person since about 12-13 years old. I just loved food. I loved it because my guardian was basically neglecting me and I got sent to live in a foster home (aunt & uncle's house) and they had cupboards of food. Crackers, cookies, chips, candies, E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G! Plus there were no kids my age to play with outside, so I just sat inside and didn't do anything and got very depressed. So now I have depression/anxiety disorders and the meds increase my appetite to this day. Like I said earlier, I lost 45-50 lbs and this was the end of senior year/right outta high school. I got depressed cause I was in a very bad relationship and he just LOVES big girls so he basically put a lot of fattening ingredients in my food without my knowledge. Fast forward to present day 2012, I am 228 pounds (same as sophomore year) and 5 feet 10 inches tall.
    What I hate when people say is "Oh you were born this way" -- I don't think human beings were intended to be fatzo's and chunk babies. And "You look fine, you're just tall. **** you're almost 6'0!" -- Doesn't matter, I'm not confident in myself and I wanna have kids and a hubby someday and be able to live my life as a healthy, fit person.

    So novels aside LOL, Please add me so I can get support from awesome people like you! We can do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi Irene,
    My mom has a thyroid issue as well. So I know exactly what you're going through. People always call us obese and fatties all the time. IT HURTS! Good luck to you! YOU CAN DO IT!

    Hi everyone
    My name is Naeome, I'm a 22 year old college student. I have lost 14 lbs so far, but still have about 30 lbs to go. I need some support and advice because it seems as soon as I get under the 200 mark it seems that the next time I weigh in I'm back to 200. I've been using my fitnesspal for a while, I just have never come on here, but I think I will start getting on here daily to support all my friends and hope that they can support me in this also. Anyone can add me.

    Hi, I'm 46 next week. I'm a teacher. I've lost 5 lbs so far and would like to lose another 5-10 or thereabouts.
    Please feel free to add me!
  • Good idea... I'm Emily and I have 20 lbs to lose, not losing much yet because I was eating all my exercise calories. I love to eat!!! I am going to be pretty serious about no sugar for a few weeks, and adjusting my calorie intake. I hope to help anyone who would like to be friends on here :)
  • This great idea! I have not quite figured out how to add friends but please feel free to add me, support is critical. I am old enough to know better...but young enough to try & get away with it anyway! :laugh: I am fighting a heinous 10 lbs that I refuse to let defeat me!!!
