  • Hi Katie! I am Karen. I just joined this group today as well. I'm trying to meet people on here so I have some encouragement. God is a huge part of my life and I realize that I can not do this alone. With God all things are possible. So here is to eating healthy and losing weight.

    I'm Jillian!

    I am so excited to have found this group! I've been on MFP for almost two months, joined originally over a year ago but successfully logging and stuff just recently.

    I have lost 6 pounds and 5.5 inches. I don't know if I have lost more as I haven't weighed for a while. Hoping to eventually get to my goal weight but I am focusing on fitness and eating right instead of obsessing over the scale.

    And of course, God is newly big in my life so finding this group is very encouraging.
  • Hi Katie,

  • Good Evening Ladies,

    My name is Benitta and I just joined the group. I have had an account for a long time and even did a little bit with it but became discouraged and quit. I am hoping to drop about 50lbs. Looking forward sharing the word and encouraging each of you.
  • Hi! I am Kim. I have been logged on for a little over a week. I have lost 3 pounds. WOOHOO!! Happy to start this process of getting this weight off. Where are you all from?

    Hi all! I don't know if I introduced myself or not. I'm Crystal, I'm an RN living in Kansas with 2 kids, a hubby, and 2 cats (sadly, no dogs anymore). I love that there is this group for encouragement! Feel free to add me as a friend and I will do my best to encourage you back!
  • Hi Katie. I'm new as well. I'm hoping to loose around 85lbs or so. Hopefully we can all keep each other encouraged to stay on track.

    hi everyone I am new to this group and am trying to lose weight and live a healthier lifestyle my kids are all on board especially my son. We just found out be is battling high cholesterol and it overweight but he is excited to start being healthy. I would ask for prayer for my husband though he is severely overweight and is bot on board with us . I worry about him I tell him that it's not about attraction because I still find him attractive but I worry about him dying thanks for your prayers .

    Hi Katie and others, I choose not to put my real name because it seems anyone can pop in here and look and I'm just kind of private that way. I may not be the most religious or churchy person, but I do think with God all things are possible and it is a big part of my life and my everyday thought processes (my faith) so I thought I'd join this group in the effort of getting some sort of encouragement from people who also have that as their cornerstone. Hope it goes well and I will try my best not to be too brash or harsh here.
