in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone. This is a new to me - not the dieting, or any of the ideas behind it. For me what's new is the fact that I'm trying to get involved with a community. I've tried so many times to lose weight, but it's been a struggle. I know it all comes down to me and my actions in the end, but I don't have much support. Any friends I do have are either thin naturally, or follow unhealthy diets. I need a support system that encourages me, and will actually say NO don't eat that! I guess what I'm saying is, I need accountability! Can anyone help me on this journey? I will try to be helpful and supportive to you too! I'm tired of being overweight, feeling lethargic, and being unhealthy. (Whine whine whine, lol)

    I'll help in any way I can - send a freind request. I too have struggled with losing weight until I joined MFP (over a year ago). It has been instrumental in helping me lose almost 30 pounds (there have been times I've fallen off course but I am still here).

    hahaha (whine whine whine) i totally understand. You sound just like i do. you have to really really put yourself into this if you want to make an impact on yourself. ( i've barely understoof this) i think that feeling is a different feeling and a different feeling of resolve for everyone. Its everyone's goal to lose weight (keep it off) and be healthy. I used to only log when i was "trying to lose weight" so that basically meant i never logged my wingstop or meals at Chili;s hahaha. but ive finally understood the importance of logging EVERY bit that enters your mouth (ok probably not EVERY bite, but if it can coundt as a snack then yes it gets logged)

    I'm noticing that too. Also, I really didn't realize how many calories I was consuming. You think a bowl of cereal is just fine, then realize you just had 2 or 3 portions of cereal! Amazing how a "light food" like that is so many calories.

    We all need support, sometimes someone to nag you and tell you what you don't want to hear so that you will do it. I think you are in the right place and you really can achieve all you want if you want to. Add me if you would like!

    Feel free to add me, I can always use the support. I have had a hard time lately. Was doing good but once I gave way a little, it has been hard to get back into the groove of things. Welcome, this is a wonderful community! :happy:
