in Motivation and Support
Hello!

I could really use some friends to help me with my weight loss journey. I would love to be there to support you, will you help support me? I currently have NO friends (on myfitnesspal, not real life of course).

I am a 31 year old tax accountant and dance instructor... yes, you read that correctly. As a dancer I was in very good shape as a teenager, but once 'real life' set in, the weight piled on. I have gained and lost and gained some more over the last several years. Although I am really in this to be healthier, I think in order for that to happen, I should lose about 60 pounds.

Please add me if you are interested. :)

    I'll add you, been on here about 2 months, lost 12lb doing this and Zumba twice a week (plus anything I else I can do around work and family life!) I have an under active thyroid that has made losing weight in the past really hard but this seems to be working. Was really slim when I was younger, but like you the weight has gone on as I've got older, 49 next month and hate the way I look in the mirror so decided to try on here, just found out I lost two pounds this week, normally only lose a pound so feeling great today :)

    Feel free to add me, I'm 8 weeks in and find that the friends thing actually helps - knowing that someone is reading your food diary and commenting, helps keep me honest and motivated.

    I have 60 pounds to lose, too, and will be starting a group for people with similar stats. If you are interested, just look for my recent post (from tonight, 9/29/12) that says "looking for support buddies with similar stats" and post if you are interested in being part of the group! Best of luck to you! YOU CAN DO IT!!! :-)
