    Every time I get on here I don't make any friends :( I'm not much for blogging but could use some encouragement if I had people on my page to cheer me on...

    Hello!

    Looks like there are a lot of us!!

    This is my first time here. Looking to lose... enough! Im currently 224lb. I had a baby 6 months ago and have hardly lost any of the "baby weight". Clearly it was not baby weight. Ugh.

    I need all the help I can get. This is SO HARD to do alone. Im really going to need help.

    I need some buddies in this! At 267lbs I have...well, a whole person to lose. She doesn't have to go home but she cannot stay here.

    Last September, when there were 14 weeks left to the year I started MFP and made losing 1lb a week my goal. And I did it which is great but now I have turned to the next goal. 80lbs off by the end of 2013.

    I lost those 14lbs with every bit of weight loss kung-fu in my arsenal. So long as it's safe and reasonable, I will try it. My recent blood labs would suggest that I am pre-diabetic. Not cool.

    So yeah, I'm in! Add me!

    I started out at 276 this time around (at one point years ago I was about 298), and am now around 170, took about 3 years, hoping to get down to 130 one day, but would even be happy to stay where I am if it came to that LMAO.

    That being said, you can TOTALLY do this! Take it one step at a time, don't worry so much about the big picture. :flowerforyou:

    I new to this, but in the same boat. Would like to friend you and maybe help each other out.

    I'm am going to turn 49 next week, my motto is "fit by fifty". This is day 2 for me. I currently weigh in around 235, and I am at my wits end. It's time for a change.

    Hello! I am new to this application, :) I used to be at 243 lbs, however, took up kickboxing, and lost 50.. then my classes ended, and I went back up another 10. recently took up cardio with working out 6 days a week, and doing sprints with my walking incorporated, doing 45 min a day. I lost 6 lbs the first week, however my body is not used to eating 1200 calories a day, so of course, like every other person trying to lose weight, I forced myself to eat less. I am no up another 1.5. Can always use friendly advice, and the last article I read helped me understand exactly what I need to do to lose the remaining 50 lbs :)

    I consider having 40 pounds to lose a lot and used to be 198 and am 145 now. So far its been 6 years and the last 40 pounds is very hard so I can also use a lot of supportive friends. Would love to help you, too.
