in Introduce Yourself
HI Everyone,

I joined this site on the 2nd. I have met some amazing people on here and am looking for more people for my support network. I am a married stay at home mom of 3 (ages 5,3 and 1-1/2) and trying to lose 100 lbs by next Jan 1st. I am doing great so far- 12 lbs and 15 inches down and many more to go. I looked into bariatric procedures and attended seminars but want to do this on my own through a healthy diet and exercise. I try to keep things positive during this process by encouraging my friends.

One thing though, Please do not add me unless you are serious about your program. I am really looking for friends who have lost or are in the process of losing a significant amount of weight.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post and for the support!

    Welcome, and congrats on your success so far!

    Feel free to add me if you like. I still have about 80-90 pounds to go before I reach my ideal weight, and I am definitely here to stay! I'd be happy to have another person serious about their lifestyle change on my friends list :)

    Thank you so much for your replies :). Requests have been sent. The support from friends so helpful. I didnt feel like getting my workout in and my friend had a kick *kitten* day- so it inspired me to get going. I felt so much better once I was done. Things like that are what this is all about. Good luck on your journeys!!

    you can add me too if you like! I have around 85-100 lbs to lose before i reach a healthy weight range for my height. i started working out since the 1st and i am proud to say i am down a few pounds. i struggled a bit in the beginning, but i have really hit my stride i think. i too am hoping to lose most of the weight by next january.

    Feel free to add me....we are all on this journey together to support and encourage....sometimes we need to lean on other mfp members and sometimes we can be a huge support. We will fall, but we will get back up.....we CAN do this!!!

    87 down, 20 or so to go, and I'll re-evaluate from there. Feel free to add me if you'd like. I'm on regularly and try to be supportive and motivating to my MFP friends.

    I just joined yesterday...still trying to figure things out. I have already lost 45 pounds, but still have about 80-100 pounds to lose. I just started a 12 week weigh loss challenge, and would love some support and motivation to keep going, so if anyone would add me, I'd appreciate it!!! Thanks, Angie

    Anyone can add me as a friend. I am just starting my journey to lose 100 lbs. I was on this journey once before and lost almost 50 lbs. but due to many medical issues I gained some of my weight back. Some of my medical issues are under control and many are still a mystery & I am still undergoing test. But I cannot use the unknown as an excuse any longer. It is time for me to take control of what I can & make the changes that are needed to move forward with my journey towards a healthy life.. SEW :flowerforyou:
