Looking for friends with 80+ to lose

mncmom3

HI Everyone,

I joined this site on the 2nd. I have met some amazing people on here and am looking for more people for my support network. I am a married stay at home mom of 3 (ages 5,3 and 1-1/2) and trying to lose 100 lbs by next Jan 1st. I am doing great so far- 12 lbs and 15 inches down and many more to go. I looked into bariatric procedures and attended seminars but want to do this on my own through a healthy diet and exercise. I try to keep things positive during this process by encouraging my friends.

One thing though, Please do not add me unless you are serious about your program. I am really looking for friends who have lost or are in the process of losing a significant amount of weight.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post and for the support!

Welcome, and congrats on your success so far!

Feel free to add me if you like. I still have about 80-90 pounds to go before I reach my ideal weight, and I am definitely here to stay! I'd be happy to have another person serious about their lifestyle change on my friends list

Feel free to add me, I haven't weighed myself yet but I joined on the 1st with my mom so hopefully I've lost

Thank you so much for your replies . Requests have been sent. The support from friends so helpful. I didnt feel like getting my workout in and my friend had a kick *kitten* day- so it inspired me to get going. I felt so much better once I was done. Things like that are what this is all about. Good luck on your journeys!!

you can add me too if you like! I have around 85-100 lbs to lose before i reach a healthy weight range for my height. i started working out since the 1st and i am proud to say i am down a few pounds. i struggled a bit in the beginning, but i have really hit my stride i think. i too am hoping to lose most of the weight by next january.

Feel free to add me....we are all on this journey together to support and encourage....sometimes we need to lean on other mfp members and sometimes we can be a huge support. We will fall, but we will get back up.....we CAN do this!!!

87 down, 20 or so to go, and I'll re-evaluate from there. Feel free to add me if you'd like. I'm on regularly and try to be supportive and motivating to my MFP friends.

I started my weight loss program seriously last week Sunday. Hopefully by the summer I will lose at least 25 lbs. it would be wonderful to join you in your. As soon as I figure out how to add you, we can compare our results. And please feel free to add me.

I just joined yesterday...still trying to figure things out. I have already lost 45 pounds, but still have about 80-100 pounds to lose. I just started a 12 week weigh loss challenge, and would love some support and motivation to keep going, so if anyone would add me, I'd appreciate it!!! Thanks, Angie

Anyone can add me as a friend. I am just starting my journey to lose 100 lbs. I was on this journey once before and lost almost 50 lbs. but due to many medical issues I gained some of my weight back. Some of my medical issues are under control and many are still a mystery & I am still undergoing test. But I cannot use the unknown as an excuse any longer. It is time for me to take control of what I can & make the changes that are needed to move forward with my journey towards a healthy life.. SEW :flowerforyou:

Hi, feel free to add me! I'm a mom too, though i have only one 14 months old boy

Please add me, I am a newbie to myfitnesspal but I am down 28lbs since giving birth 6 months ago and could use a good friend.

Nice to meet you! I am also only looking for friends that are serious about doing what it takes to lose weight. (This diet and exercise stuff isnt for wussies.) To me, that means logging in DAILY. I think this process only works if you are diligent and honest in your logging. I delete friends that don't log in.

It also means surrounding myself with POSITIVE people. The pity parties, the ones who threaten to throw in the towel, the whiners, etc. I just can't let them bring me down. I have a very big goal ahead of me so I only look forward.

I started my diet almost 7 months ago and as of today I have lost 60 lbs. I am officially 1/3 of the way to my ultimate goal of losing 180 lbs. I can do it, I just have to do what I've already done two more times!

I work out a lot, and thats been the key to my weightloss. I am new to running. Started in August at 300 lbs. Ran my first 5k in Dec. Have another one next week. I'd like to do a 10k by the end of the year.

If any of this sounds like we'd be good friends to motivate each other, feel free to add me. But dont add me just to ignore me. I'm not a friend collector. If not, good luck to you.

Adding you!

finding_sammi

feel free to add me anyone. I started last Halloween and am 23lbs down so far with 79lbs to go. However the biggest deal for me so far, is stopping the vicious cycle of starve and binge which I'd been locked in for the past 4yrs, and also stopping drinking which had been a big problem for me... I'm all about lifestyle change not quick fix )

anyways, best of luck everyone... we got this!
