Newbie - needs friends to join the journey (50lbs to lose)

Hello
I just discovered myfitnesspal and I like it very much. I somehow managed to get myself at an all-time weight high - and would like 2013 to be the best, healthiert and slimmest year ever :-)
I made some progress over the last months, started walking and exercising, but now I really need to watch my diet, as I love food (Especially pizza)....
I would be happy if some of you would befriend me, as losing weight is so much more fun together...
best

  • You can add me, I've been trying to lose weight for 2 years now but never had the will power to do it. I've finally found it and I've lost 8lbs already since middle of November. I've got another 72 to go and I get married next November so I'm really determined this time!

    Feel free to add me :) and good luck with your weight loss!

    Hi, everyone. I am new to this site. I am hoping it keeps me in check and accountable for my exercising and working out. I am also looking to make some friends and have an online support system. :smile:

    Welcome to MFP, a journey like this is better with friends. I'm on daily supporting and motivating my MFP buddies and they return the support and motivation. I also love pizza, the perfect food! But I work it in and balance it with my workouts. Feel free to add me as a MFP buddy. To a bright and cool 2013!
  • Hey welcome to the group =) I've lost 44lbs and a lot thanks to this website, just stay with it and you will reach any goals you set for yourself. Feel free to friend request me.
  • You can add me if you like. I've already lost 10lbs and 15 more to go (im like, yeahhhuhh) lol
  • I will add you! I lost 17 lbs in 2012 with MFP, and have a goal to lose another 12 lbs in 2013. I'll be opening up my diary and working hard this year to eat more proteins, complex carbs, and less sugar. I work out in the gym with weights 3 days a week, and do a lot of cardio by walking my dog and doing Agility training with her (it's more of a workout for me than it is her I think). If anyone needs some support, feel free to add me. :)
  • You can add me. Im trying to lose 50 pounds by August for my 30th birthday
