need more friends/motivation and support!

Hey, my name is Katie. I joined this site because one of my old friends told me about it and said it was helpful for losing weight. So far it seems to be helping a bunch! Some days are harder than others...i have a sweet tooth and used to eat a lot of candy and junk, which i miss...i seem to have enough will power to not crack but it would be nice to make some new friends on here that are serious about it that can help with motivation. I live in Florida in the cocoa beach area. I try to hit the gym everyday even for just a little bit... the past 4 weeks ive lost almost 8lbs...the biggest thing was portion control, i couldnt believe how much i used to eat!! Anyway if your looking for a new friend add me!
