190 lb, 5"5. :[ Any one want to be my friend?

I have few friends because I'm so fat and always irritated. I hate how I look in pictures. : I It doesn't help my already low self-esteem any.

So it's time to get down and do this!

If I could get down to 130, I'd be soo happy... But if I can only do 140, then I'll be much more than satisfied.
I hope I can do it.

    Sure! I started about two weeks ago but I log everything~ I have low self-esteem as well. It's a bad habit! We both have around the same to lose. Add me back if we seem to have enough in common!
  • I just found this site today, you can count me in!

    Friend request sent now! Anyone else that would like to be friends I'd be more than happy to help motivate and support!
  • I am 5'4.5" and I began at 207 (my biggest EVER.) I wanted to lose 47 to begin with but have added 15 more onto my goal. I have tried many things and MFP is the only thing that has helped. Feel free to add me!
  • Hi my name is Lisa and I will be your friend. I have about 30lbs to lose and have just got back on the bandwagon today. By the way, you look great in your pic but I feel the same way and therefore I do not have a profile pic. We can do this!

    You can do this! I started at 225lbs and just kept pushing through. I started off small with exercise and then began to include running and other cardio/strength exercises. Do not get discouraged if you only see a .5 lb loss some weeks. Just keep moving! Also watch your clothes and how they fit. That kept me more motivated than the lbs on the scale.

    I have low self esteem too and I'm shorter and weigh more than you do! It sucks! Feel free to add.

    Been on here since February, I try to log everything!! Hard when out of town, or when company comes, but I am pretty faithful about it.
    To be successful you really need to log your meals and exercise, this helps you see what you really eat and do!

    Feel free to add me, but please include a note where you saw me or I may not accept....

    Good Luck everybody on your journey to fitness!

    hi all,
    just started on here and could certainly use friends! I dont expect massive wieght losses because i have already been dieting and lost 4 stone, i have never really been a big loser each week, my best has been 4lbs but its usually around 2, but now i am on Atkins i am hopeful as long as i can keep in ketosis that is..
  • Yes, add me!
    I'm 5'5" - 168 [gained 30 pounds in the last 8 months] aiming to get back to 128.
    I'm trying to kick my sugar and carb addictions and trying a non-cult version of Paleo for at least a few months.
    My diary is open if that helps other people too!

    You can add me if you like...
  • Added you, been on here for a month and lost 5lbs. Though I'd like to say you're beautiful, so please don't you forget that and of course people want to be your friends. Low self esteem really sucks, but I've find just walking a little more and slowly introducing myself to a healthier lifestyle has began to make me feel full of beans and ready to go. You've taken the hardest step, which is trying to change those naughty habits you have (mine's comfort eating). I'm 5"10, but I hope you don't think my height is a problem we can both support each other :)!

    Let's fight the flab, we can do it :)! xx
