in Introduce Yourself
I started using MFP on June 1st at 260 lbs. I lost about 30 pounds over the summer but once school began (I teach college Spanish) my weight loss has slowed to a crawl. I have lost an additional 6 since mid-August. My eventual goal is to get to around 150. Although I am generally eating well and exercising, I have let myself slowly increase my calorie goal and slack a bit on logging. I need to get back on track!

I log and comment daily and try to be a really positive supporter. I have a few really great, supportive pals on here but would like some more to help keep me motivated. I am not too picky but would like friends with similar stats and/or weight loss goals, who log and comment regularly, and who are interested in making a change to a healthier lifestyle by moving more and eating better but less--no 800 net cals a day or crazy "diets" for me! If that's you, please feel free to add me.

    HI Im Amy and have been on here for a year or so and hav enot reached my goal... because I have not been dedicated to losing weight... but then my father got sick and I graduated Cosmo school and got licensed. Now I am his care giver and hes back in the hospital. I have not started to work yet although that is about to change once we get him stable. My fiance works and pays all the bills. Makes me feel like a loser and what do I do... drink here and there and not work out and eat stuff thats comforting and not good for me. I miss the 148-154 lb girl who used to hit up the dance clubs and all the guys couldnt catch their jaws. I know its been 10 years ago but Im just as sexy just I had gained 80+lbs. Ive lost 18 of those 80 and wanna see 155 if I can. I think as you get older trying to meet or beat your old weight will make u look ill... something that I dont wanna look. I dont wanna draw that kind of attention. SO I need more support buddies who will email me or fb me when I hav eno logged in. I wanna be harrassed to death about working out and eating right. I wanna see if this approach will help me become the sexy 31 year old I know I can become. So let the challenge begin!!!!

    Hi, I will send you a friend request. I am currently at 245lbs and my goal is to first get to 200 lbs and then go from there. We can do this together.
