in Introduce Yourself
I have been on MFP for a while, but typically forget to log unless I'm in a super diet mode! Last year I was given a weight loss pill by my Dr and I lost 30 pounds, still far off from the 82 that I'd like to lose, but five months after the pill ended I gained all my weight back! And I mean ALL OF IT! So this time I am going to try it healthy, my main goal is to eat a low carb diet. I need distractions from snacking so I am looking for some weight loss buddies that I can swap stories, recipes, and just daily events back and fourth!

Anything else you'd like to know please ask!!

    I'll be a weight loss buddy too. I'm new on here as well. My father was just diagnosed with diabetes and I'm realizing how prevalent it is in my family. I need to loose 50 lbs. I'm so scared of becoming a diabetic. So let's all encourage each other to stick with this and have some fun and get our lives back!!!! It's a new year, a new start to a new life!! Yeehaaa :)

    I joined MFP five days ago, and wish I new about it when I started my weight loss program. I started working on the Ideal Protein program on December 21st, and it was really hard for the first week [not to mention the holidays], but I held strong and now I think I've got the hang of it. I struggle with family meals when my kids have their usual meals and I can smell what they are eating. I had no idea how hooked I was to empty carbs, but its the no-no's in the early phase of my current program that really kill me. This evening I smelled peanut butter and I started drooling like Pavlov's dog. I'm not sure if I'm looking to lose another 50 or 70 lbs. 50 lbs will put me at high school weight, but 70 lbs is the top end for "normal" at my height. Who makes up these numbers?

    Anyway, I'd like buddies!

    Hi all, I am somewhat new. It has been a while since I have been on here. I did weight watchers and got on my treadmill EVERYDAY. I was able to loose 25 lbs. I need encouragement and will help provide encouragement. Losing weight is very hard I know but once you get into the groove of it and eating healthy, it will be easier. Feel free to add me as a buddy. I look forward to seeing our progress.

    I'm game for new buddies also.

    Here are some of my tips to share--
    I measure everything when im at the top of my game, I try not to eat late dinners or snack after 8pm. If I want something I eat it with MODERATION, if you tell me I can't have it Im likely to eat it anyway.. For Soda always diet with lots of ice, add lemon to water for extra flavor. For those of you that don't have an app of MFP grab a quick calorie book to monitor during your day.. Walk on your lunch breaks, and don't forget to reward yourself, be truthful when you add your intakes if not your only hurting yourself.
    Good Luck.. Jess

    Hi my name is Kayleigh and today is my first day on mfp. I need a buddy as Well to help me stay on track. I have been dieting since May 2012 and went from 255lbs down to 199 but still have 35lbs to go and it seems like these last few pounds just will not come off. So I have recently started on bee pollen along with a B12 vitiamin now I just need a buddy.

    I am working creating a cheer leading section so that my friends and I can keep ourselves motivated. We all have different reasons for wanting to lose weight but we are all insecure about it and need lots of encouragement. Anyone can feel free to add me!

    Hi. I had my third child 5 months ago.. since then I've lost 24lbs and still have a lot to lose. I'm currently 187lbs and my main goal is to be at or beneath 170lbs by the end of February. I'm very motivated right now. lol Hoping we're both successful!! :) Oh.. yeah I'm suggesting you make mini goals for yourself. I have a little celebration for myself every 10 lbs. I just had a celebration for hitting the 180's lol and will do it again when I reach the 170's.. even if the scales say 179.9!! Hehehe!!

    I did the diet pill bit too. It took me about 2 years to gain almost all of it back. I'm doing it the old fashion this time too. I find that having a huge support group on here keeps me motivated. I'm sending an invite now. Anyone else on here please feel free to add me as well. I log onto here daily. Good luck everyone!

    Hi there. I've been caught in the yo-yo diet loop for a while as well!! I too, joined a few weeks ago, then forgot about keeping up the logs. I'm back to see if I can find some motivation! Thought I would start a group that focuses on changing habits for sustained weight loss. However, I need at least 3 people to get it up and running. Does this sound like something you would be interested in? Or anyone for that matter?
