in Introduce Yourself
Do you guys think may be we could all post here if we wanted friends added for support? We could just all post here and you can add whoever above you that you would like?

Introduce yourself? May be talk about your goals and what you are looking for out of your MFP friends?


I am Megan, 24 female, looking to loose and keep off forever about 60ish pounds.. want a lifestyle change not just a diet.

I like to give positive comments



(Remember to add people towards the end of the list as they have probably gotten less friend requests!)

    Sure! I'm all in for positive support. Frankly, I am not certain how conversational I'll be... but I'm in!

    I'm 44 and 50 lbs overweight. I have lost 10 lbs since January just by adding working out occasionally back into my life. However, I'm going to try to take this all a little more seriously. I had lost 50 lbs ten years ago, but gained back 40 of it after having a child and getting too lazy to watch what I eat or work out regularly. So... I'm actually 25 lbs down from my peak. That said, I'm still 20lb over obese, so that's my first goal.

    Sounds great to me.
    I work full time as a Paramedic in the UK.
    I`m 42 no kids, I have a great hubby and two dogs.
    I put on weight after an operation on my feet 3yrs ago.
    I was bursting out of my uniform.
    I lost 2stone but then it started to creep back.
    So here I am trying again, all is going well so far.
    I have thrown away my larger uniform.

    Great to meet others and give support.:smile::smile:

    Love having supportive friends who comment and get on the site everyday! My name is Keri. I'm 24 and engaged to be married next year. My highest weight was ~230lbs, and I've got about 20 more lbs to lose to get to healthy BMI range. I've done Weight Watchers in the past, but I found doing it this way makes me feel more healthy. Add me :)

    Hi everybody!!! My name is Anne and I recently got type 1 diabetes. I was in the hopsital for a good part of a week because i was very close to dying :( i lost alot of muscle mass and water weight and now i gained it all back. I want to get down to 150-145 so that means i would need to lose at least 28 lbs. I know i can do it (it might take me some time) but i would like as many friends as i can get since they encourage me!

    Anyone is welcome to add me!!!

    Love friends on MFP!

    I am 65 with 25 pounds total to lose. I have pretty good eating habits, but can always improve. I like the support people give on MFP.

    That sounds like a good idea. Im Jeannette, 30 yrs old, I want to lose 75 more pounds (lost 25 already). I also want to get in better shape and lower the risk of hypertension (runs in the family and i want to avoid it as long as possible.)

    I like to see what other people are eating to get ideas. I also like the motivation of seeing other people succeed at their weight loss and fitness.

    Please feel free to add me.

    I'm Dijon, I have lost 40 lbs so and am aiming for 20 more, and ultimately 20 more after that. Which will but me at 160, a place i'm pretty sure I have never been. I just joined the National Guard and really wanted to prepared for that come Jan. 14 when I g to Basic training. I need supportive people who I can call friends because unfortunately I don't have much from my spouse. She keeps bringing junk into the house and my self control and free will are hard to restrain. Hope to talk to you all soon!

    Love this!

    I'm Colette from London UK, have about 50lbs to lose. Have lost 25 already although my ticker says different, I have been breaking down my weightless into small manageable goals and then starting from zero once they have been reached.

    Anyone who is motivational is free to add me :)
