I'll give and take some support here :)

Hello everyone,

My name is Ashley, I'm 25 5'3, about 180 pounds. I tend to go through phases where I'm really good at working out and watching my intake. Then I "get too busy", stop working out and start eating what I want. I'm hoping that joining this website and having to answer to someone other than myself will keep me motivated to be healthy.

I'm going on vacation to Italy soon, so hopefully I can keep myself on the right track :) I'm fairly new to the MPF website. I've had the app for awhile but didn't realize there was a whole community!!! I'm looking for friendly, positive friends who can encourage/support me (and hold me accountable). I'm pretty good at being supportive as well. So if you are looking for new friends too, add me!

    You (and anyone else) are more than welcome to add me! I'm usually on and very supportive! I used to go back and forth about eating right and exercising too. But I am on track with help from some awesome MFP pals!

    Hi all, feel free to add me! I'd like to get some friends on here to motivate each other and keep each other accountable! I'm 28 years old and the pounds started creeping up. So much so I saw pics of myself and thought "who's that fat girl?" Time to do something about it!

    Hi Ashley,

    I completely understand what you mean by getting to your goal, then getting 'too busy'. I have the same problem.

    Feel free to add me and we can keep each other on track with some positive feedback!! :)
