Helllloooooo Out There!

I'm not really new to MFP... but I never really paid attention to the forums. I've actually been on here for a few months now, and haven't really lost weight. Kind of discouraging, still all in all, I'm a pretty happy camper. I lost 100 lbs on my own a few years back but can't seem to take anymore off.

Maybe joining forums and saying hi to people will encourage me to work even harder to see even a 5 lbs change! SOOO HIII!!!

    HI! I've only been on MFP for 2 weeks, so I'm a newbie. Congratulations on the 100 lb weight loss!! I'd be happy to have you as a friend so I'm adding you now.

    Well, hey there. Welcome to the forums.
  • I just joined, ooh...I'd say almost an hour now. There is power in numbers, so I'll share in the support that's offered out there. This is the missing link to lose my last 20 lbs...Keep track of my consumption and output ! I have plateaued for the past three years, so I would love to hit a new lower plateau that I can maintain with little effort and every day lifestyle. Cheers!

    Thanks Everyone!!!!

    I've tried many different diets, I typically like the low/no "bad" carb ones. No bread and stuff, but on the weekends that doesn't always happen!!! Out of everything I have tried, I never once tried to reach out for the support and to support others myself! Maybe it'll help :) I'm always happy to listen to other people and motivate them along as well!

    Hey good luck with your weight loss, 100 pounds is amazing! I find I tend to faf about if I don't come on here and there are some lovely people too! I also find it helpful to have my diary open to friends so they can advise me when I am not eating the best of foods and also helps you to get ideas for meals too when looking at your friends diaries too!

    Hellloooooo back at ya.
    I'm back after a month off - but with little success prior to that. Also hoping that with the help of a few friends might just push me along in the right direction ... so good luck to us :-)
