I found my journey on this site quite enlightening I am now accountable for not only my exercise but my journal and I have noticed my bad food habits for sure please add me and we can encourage each each other, I have lost 80 pounds in my twenties within 8 months but now that I'm older it has taken me to 50 lately about a year & a month... I have been on this for over a week0
-
Thank you both for the encouragement ^^0
-
I've been on here for a few months and it's been helping me so much! I absolutely love it! Feel free to add me!0

Progress will seem slow but as long as you stick with it you'll realize in the end that time flew and you won't hardly recognize yourself anymore! Keep at it and you'll reach your goal!!0

You can do this!0

I'm here for you girl. Add me. I could use the support as well!0

We are about the same age and weight! I'm almost 26 and lost about 50 pounds (25 of that being on MFP). I love it here! Trying to start back on the weight loss wagon can be tough but the friends that you add and suport you get from that makes it easier! Good luck!0

Feel free to add me. I'm 5'6" with 52 lbs left to lose (started with 65)0

Hi Erika! I'm roughly about the same height and weight and age. XD More than that I'm just up here in Arkansas. Sorry, I always find it fun when I see someone from my region of the world on such a global site like MFP. I know this will be a great tool for you on your journey! Remember, you already did the hardest part. Starting!0

I would like to lose 100lbs I will add you and we can support each other:-)0

HI Erika, I live in Mississippi, too! The best advice I can give you is to follow this site with discipline and daily. See what other people do and eat and don't feel discouraged! If those in your home are overweight and don't eat very healthy, do what I do. Buy your own healthy food and prepare your own meals. Don't let anybody discourage you from reaching your goal. Best wishes.0

congratulations on your loss so far use that as a motivation and keep powering through0

Great job so far! I will go add you as well as I'm also looking for friends here. I'm 29, 5'5.5" and would love to be in the 180s. Less would be nice too, but I'm shooting for that first, then I'll reevaluate. So that's about 80lbs to go (down 14 so far).
I also used to live in MS as my DH was stationed there. That place was horrible on our waistlines! Haha! I know you can do this! How exciting for you and what a wonderful goal to have. Can't wait to journey this with you0 -
congrats so far! I started at 290 and I'm trying to get to 150! you can add me if you'd like!0
-
hey, we're in the same boat...that move sounds exciting too!!
you can definitely do it by then...just keep positive0 -
I love this site xD Thank you everyone for the welcome0
