in Introduce Yourself
Hi MFP, this is my 3rd week and I have allready lost 7lbs. I have 84 to go and am totally in the zone! I am 30 and just married and can not WAIT to be fit, healthy and slim! I have been overweight and miserable about it all my adult life but this is it!

I think I have always thought of "dieting" as the hardest thing in the world which is the frame of mind that has held me back! Now I realise that it is actually dead simple! Eat less, do more, stick to your allowance!!

Please add me as I think that MFP is my new facebook and I need fellow weight losers!

    Hi Slimiranda,
    I need someone myself to help me with my weight loss goals. I heard about this site through a friend. I need to lose 100 lbs and started last week with a weigh in that shed me 3 lbs! I slacked off this weekend but I am back on track this week in hopes for the same results on the scale. Happy to have someone here who shares the same goals =))

    Hi! Add me!! Add me!!
    Seriously - - I have similar goals and I finally came to the conclusion that this is it! I'm done with straddling the fence on being healthy or not! It's time to set goals, make changes and see progress! I'd love to be part of your support group!

    Hi, I'm 22 and another newbie :) Started this week but I haven't been too good so far! I'm not sure of my weight loss goal (I'm concentrating on measurements I guess) but I would love to have some motivational friends :)

    Hello!

    I am 23 and have 80-90 lbs to lose before getting to my goal weight! I am three weeks in and have decided to wait until valentines day (my goal is to have lost 10lbs) to weigh in! I have been measuring waist, hips, thigh etc. and in two week lost 5 inches on my waist!

    Feel free to add me! I am looking for new friends as well!

    I found most of my friends by sending out a topic looking for anyone in my state. I am in Florida so i sent out a topic asking for fellow floridians. I was 25 friends richer over night!

    Good luck!

    Hi, I am new to this site. I started on December 26, 2012 , and have lost 10 lbs. I started working out at the gym, and calculating my calories. My first goal is to lose 30 lbs., that will put me under 200. I am 1/3 rd of the way there. Next goal is 180. My ultimate goal is around 130.

    Of course I have just been set back a step or two. I now am battling upper respitory flu and am unable to do cardio.

    I would love to have some friends with the same goals in mind, and we can challenge each other!
