I'm here for weight loss

The last week of December, I "left" MFP. I'd gotten into a funk and was hoping that a change in scenery would help. I went to Spark...once again I hated it. Then I tried Noom and I just completed day 5...it's way too simplistic for me. I like much more control! I have to have more control. It's an awesome app and I love the pedometer part (and from what I can tell it's pretty accurate) but I missed MFP. So...here I am.

Not only did I miss the logging on MFP, I missed the support. I love it here! You guys help each other and offer suggestions and are truthful! I deleted a lot of my friends because I do not consider this a second facebook. When I'm looking for new ways to eat veggies, I do not care what your sister's dog did the other day. I'm sorry.

I also need friends who aren't offended when I say the word "*****es" or "*kitten*". Lol.

I need people who are not going to say "Great Job!" or "Good Day!" when I eat three cheeseburgers a steak and cream puffs. It's not a good day. I know it's not a good day. I don't need you to be nice to me! Lol. Lying/denial is what got me in the place I'm in now. I'm here to learn. I know where the problem areas are, I just need help in finding how to fix them.

In conclusion, I need friends. I'll be there for you! I've learned my lesson about leaving. Lol.

A little about me, I'm currently 29-year old married mother to 3 school age children. I'm a night-shift ER nurse (so sometimes I have to log from 0001 in the am until I go to bed that night which may be midnight (24hours of awake time, eating and logging) so some days I go over and it's okay! I do not go to a gym and I want to do the C25K. I quit smoking 11/14/2012. I use my Wii and XBox 360 - Kinect for exercise. I also have an elliptical at home and I walk outside. I have 75 more lbs to lose and I've already lost 28 here with MFP since June.

Hope to hear from someone soon!!! I'll start logging again on here tomorrow am! WooHoo!

    Like how you started your post. It seems some people are here for other reasons. To each his own but I'm all about business. You can add me if you like.
