a friend for the journey

Jessi40 · January 2013

Hey,

I was hoping to meet a chatty friend, someone to really share with, share the journey. I'd like to lose about 100 more pounds and feel like it will take at least a year. I love MFP and would love to really get to know a few people who want to share the journey and all its ups and downs.

My name is Jessi, I have a mostly sit down job and 2 children (8 and 5), my hubby is a long haul truck driver so I feel like a single mom a lot, and I'm wanting to get healthy...

Hi Jessi! Feel free to add me, I would love to b your chatty friend. I am fairly new but I am on daily! I have 90ish pounds or so to lose. Love making new friends, helps hold you accountable!

I'm glad I'm not the only one that is looking to lose that kind of weight!!! Feel free to add me if you'd like, I am on here daily and although I just started this site, I was on another site and lost an over all of 16.5lbs in a matter of a few months (I didnt really try for a while there). Having people on here and even in "real life" that can help hold you accountable, is awesome! I know at least for me, I wont do it really if I just leave it up to my own thoughts. I'm just not that disciplined yet.

Hi everyone, I'm just starting to really be more focused, I'd like to lose 60-80 lbs. I'll still be above the "perfect" weight for my height but I was happy at that weight so it's my current long term goal. If it seems realistic and achievable from there I can keep going.

I've been on MFP for about 6 months but have only used it sporadically, since last summer/fall I'm down some but it's been very slow going. I'm single (divorced, kids are grown) and I could use some friends to help motivate me and share ideas with, too

Hey guys! I am starting to log on here everyday too. I really want to stick to my guns and reach my goal this year. I got careless around the holidays and I really don't want to slip again.

Hey,
Please feel free to add me as a friend. I have a group of friends that all hold each other accountable, not just for the food diary, but for working out, and providing great recipe ideas for busy families.

Add me I as I have been there.. I am nearing 85 pounds lost total since college..!

Anyone feel free to add me. I started MFP 1 week ago and met some very nice people. My saying is "We're on this journey together". We can never have too many friends to support and get support from. We'll all have our good and bad days and can help each other along the way.

Started a few days ago myself but I have been a member on MFP for a few years now. I have roughly 50 or so lbs to lose yet and would like some friends to share in this journey as well. My husband is an over the road driver as well and I have 4 kids (16, 15, 13, and 9) so I also feel like a single mom as well. Plus I have a full time job working in our local grade school. Feel free to add me! Good luck in your journey!
