    Hi, joined 2 weeks ago and I love it. I've never calorie counted before and I love what it's teaching me about food and what exactly I'm eating. I'm really motivated at the moment but I definitely need friends to help me through the tougher moments! Nat x

    HI all! I am new too. I don't have too much to lose, but I am scared of the direction my weight is moving and I definitely need some motivation to eat better and exercise more. I think I have come to the right place!

    I am 40-years old, mom of two wonderful children (9 1/2 and 7) and I live in France.

    I am looking forward to heading out on this journey with lots of friends and lots of support. Good luck to everyone and may we all reach our goals!!

    Best -- Jen

I'm only going to be 20 but I have High cholesterol and know that If i dont get fit now I never will. I long to have a body that I can appreciate. I'd like to be online friends as a support system in any way I can. I want to make losing weight work for me too!

    Hi! I'm pretty new too! I've been on for 10 days and trying to keep myself going! I am amazed at how much more I THINK before I eat something because I KNOW that I have to write it in here! I think it will be great to have people to encourage me to keep on!
    This site is wonderful!!!

    Hi :happy: My nae is Shikitia Jackson and I just signed up with this website. I gained 100lbs when i was pregnant. I have tried for 2 years to shed those pounds but it has been a struggle :sad: It is hard for me to stay motivated. I hate doing it alone is why it is hard for me to stay motivated. I am looking for ppl who want to lose weight and can help me stay on track and I will do the same. I am 21 year in Atlanta, GA.

    Hi Lisa count me in too, I think support is key in losing weight the more accountability the better. I want to lose about 60 lbs, I also do Weight Watchers but I have noticed the two sites are very comparable. I live in Florida, but anytime you need some support feel free to send me a message. Just remeber a quote my mother in law often tells me nothing tastes as good as thin feels.

    I wanna have friends too. I was on this site before and quit partly I think cuz I didn't have friends. I just started again last week.
    Will you be my friend? LOL I feel like I am in grade school asking that.

    Hi Lisa, I am new to the site and I love it also. I started with weight watchers and I am following it to an extent. This is helpful because it does the calculating. I need to lose 100 lbs. I just started Zumba, a latin dance/aerobics/belly dancing class. It is so incredible and gives me such encouragement! I lost 6 lbs. last week before I started this site. Lots of fruits and veggies, lite cool whip and prayer!

    Hi All, I have been here for about three weeks and am just now realizing this would be a good way to "diet" with others. Since I'm here everyday this is much easier than going to a meeting and so many of the stories and blogs have really inspired and encouraged me. But am unsure how you go about "adding friends" to my site...help?:huh: Laura in Denver!

    Greetings,

    My name is the Glenda and I ran across this website the other day and I think this will ge good for me to keep me movtiated.
    It's so hard to stay movtiated when trying so hard to lose weight; However, maintaining is the issue for me. Well, about
    6 months ago I lost around 62.5 pounds and gain every ounce back. Now that I regain my conscience back, I think I am
    on the right track. At this point ....December 19, 2009 I weighed at 291 (I don't believe it) in the doctor's office. My doctor
    definitely gave me a scare about my heart. After a series of test I'm good now. Currently, as of today I have lost 26 pounds.
    With this I really need some fitnesspals to keeps us movitated and to reach our goal.

    Me too! I need people to hold me accountable. I just joined today, so I think it will take me a while to get into the calorie-counting aspect of it, but I've been exercising 5-6 days a week for the last month.

    Add me...and yell at me, please ;)
