    Feel free to add me (anyone), but I do look at logs (if they're open) and will make comments on them. If you want someone to just say "Good job" when you're under goal, but it's because you ate 3 cheeseburgers and that's it, I'm not for you. But I do try and be supportive and encouraging. :D

    Feel free to add me, I'm on daily and could offer as well as receive some encouragement. I've lost about 40 pounds since November and am looking to lose another 30, so we can help each other get there!!

    I might give a "Good job!" or two, but ultimately I am not that supportive. But if you have questions, I am always willing to answer. I like the sound of my own opinion.

    I am a lot older that you are but we are the same height. I have been maintaining 125 pounds for about a year and a half after losing thirty pounds. I know exactly what you mean about deciding your goal weight as you go. I was originally aiming for 135 but when I got there I wasn't happy.
    Always happy for new friends.

    You can add me. I've been doing this since January (after stopping for a bit before that) and I've logged for over 50 days in a row! (Non-scale victory) I do my best to be constructive and helpful.

    In my personal opinion, you're a lot more likely to develop the FL you want if you add people to it slowly, as you find them in the forums...and even then, you may have to trim some where you guessed wrong. Look for people who you can relate to, who speak in a manner that you like, and send them a FR. Trying to add all of them at once with a "hey everyone please add me for support" forum post generally doesn't end well.

    Anyhow, good luck on your quest...

    ...and just so we're clear, I'm probably a horrible candidate for you FL. My type of "support" is subtle at best.
