in Introduce Yourself
I have been on here for awhile, but have made no friends. I want to get serious about this, and I need some encouragement...even going to the gym alone gets lonely.

    Hi.. feel free to add me too, I've been doing MFP for a month maybe and I love it! It really makes me accountable for what I eat and the friends I have here are going thru the same thing I am..not like my "Facebook" friends!!! LOL Definitely more comfort here!! Just remember this is a lifestyle change..little steps, change one thing at a time and maybe that will be easier for you!! Good luck!!

    Hi all,

    I joined this site on my own and would love to be part of a support group. I'm not sure how to add people? I have a lot to lose. At last weigh in, I was 45 kilos away from my goal weight. I have lost weight before, but put it on again. Up, down, up, down, up, down. I usually get triggered by stress, life events and sometimes, by progress photos (there was a notable case where the difference between one photo and another was 17.5kgs and I couldn't see a difference between the two - it was absolutely heartbreaking).

    I'm looking for people to swap stories and encouragement with. People with hints and tips on how to stay on track and motivated and people who I can help do the same on those bad/frustrating days that we all have.

    Drop me a line sometime :)

    Hey there,
    You can add me as a friend, I'd love to chat about all things, getting healthy and all that! It's great your on your way to a healthier you!!! I work out alone all the time, I don't go to a gym, my lifestyle does not allow it but I work out at home and keep the music loud or watch really good stuff while on my elliptical.... Stay positive and know you are not alone here!!

    feel free to add me. I'm in the same boat as you but need extra motivation other than when the scales make me happy!

    You can add me if you like. I have a long, long way to go and am still surprised at how motivated I am - we all need some encouragement to keep going sometimes - and pushing when we feel like slowing down!! Lets do this together :happy:
