Here's the scoop: I'm brand new to this site and looking for a supportive network of friends to help me on my journey to lose 135 lbs. Holy moly, that is a big goal. But I'm ready. :]

    Your in the right place. You can do it. Just set small goals where the goal is always within your grasp and before you know it, you'll be on a roll. Thats how I lost all of mine. I'd set 5lb goals and work toward them. I'm now trying to lose my last 10 lbs and could also use the support. Add me :)

    Hi! I'm cjr1951. I am also new at this and it is driving me crazy. I would like to chat with others to find out what they are eating and how they stay on trac. I find I am always hungry even if I am not. Any one with suggestion please help.

    I also would like to become friends with others.

    Hi there! Welcome to MFP! You're in the right place for motivation and support for some serious goals. Feel free to add me. :happy: I started this past May myself. My goals are big too and I'm 1/2 way there now! I'm here everyday, for motivation and support because I really believe the support I get here has made all the difference in my weight loss. You can do it! It's just like eating an elephant....just take it one bite at a time :laugh:

    You are more than welcome to add me. I have 35 plus to lose, but I'm 44 so it doesn't just slip off like it does the younger set. I'll be here a while.

    Hi! This is a really good way to reach that goal! Anyone and everyone feel free to add me as well. I used MFP to lose almost 90 lbs about two years ago, then got pregnant with my little girl, now i'm using it again to lose the weight I gained during the pregnancy. (which was way too much lol). This time around I have lost 12 lbs of my initial 40 lb goal, but might go for more once I reach that. I am more than happy to encourage and share every tip I have on how I did it before, even including eating out once a week and having a bunch of kids running around with minimal time to exercise correctly lol. Here's hoping we all reach our goals!
