Hi, I am a 26 year old, and just wanted to post here to find some friends on the same boat as me! I am trying to lose the last 20 or so pounds left on my weight loss journey. I have lost about 35 pounds in the past three years, but have plateau'd for a very long time! Looking to gain a new, healthier, and definitely more active lifestyle, and finally break this very annoying plateau! Feel free to add me :)

    Hi, I can send you a friend request if you like. I'm also 26 and new to MFP. Got a bit more weight to lose than you though!!

    How have you lost the weight so far?

    Thanks for the add! :) I actually lost the weight through a long period of time, roughly 2 years. I picked up exercising, and added it more and more to my daily routine. I also got into the habit of eating throughout the day, instead of one large meal a day. I started dieting my last year of college, which I only ate a bagel in the morning, then would eat a lot of bad food at night (so bad!). I picked up these habits, and lost weight through periods of time (so I would lose ten pounds, then plateau, then go on to lose ten more, the plateau). But now I have basically kept the same weight for almost a year and a half! Definitely looking to kick start the loss again! :) Good luck on your weight loss journey, I'm glad we are doing it together!

    Dedication is number 1...... Motivation is number 2..... With help from friends...number 2 becomes a great push up for number 1 :)
