Hi, I'm looking for friends to help keep me motivated because I am easily discouraged. I'm trying to lose about 60lbs altogether and I could really use some help from others to keep me going. Thanks.

    Welcome to the journey. Lots of folks on here to help you and support you if you're willing to do the work. I find logging as I eat and checking calorie counts before I order helps me make better choices than if I log at the end of the day. Like you, I have a hard time staying motivated and I have quite a bit to lose. Happy to be part of your support team if you want :smile: It's just a day by day deal and a decision to be healthier. I don't diet, but I do appreciate and understand the need to be conscious of my behaviors. That being said, I'm also working on being kinder to myself. Good Luck!!!!!! You can do it!

    Welcome to MFP !! Its a fantastic place for support and motivation. But like everything else, you get out of it what you put in. Get some friends, particiapte in the forums and ask for help. There are so many fantastice folks here - its just incerdible. Take a look at some of the success stories - that's where I go when I start to think about giving up. Feel free to add me as a friend :flowerforyou:

    Hi Everyone, I am a 60 year old female trying to lose 60lbs. I will need all the help I can get!!!! Would like to have a few buddies on this journey. I am not on any diet, just trying to eat healthier, excercising a little more. Any suggestions would be great.
