Looking for Some 'Real' Friends

Hey, all, I'm looking for ppl that are willing to...invest in a friendship with me. Basically, it just means that we'll be there for each other in this journey, for the scale loss, NSVs, mistakes, lessons learnt, everything! Especially for those horrible days. Just someone that will talk, listen, motivate and allow me to return the courtesy. In short, a true friend, not someone that's just looking to expand their "number of friends" in the profile.

Extra points if you love ice-cream :D

-J

Ps: here are my stats, in case you're curious

Age: 21
Height: 5'2

    Hi,

    I'm a lot older and taller (52 and 6'1"), but I'm on everyday. Looking to lose about 35 pounds, but more importantly continue to exercise and tone up. Feel free to add me if you'd like.

    Oh....I do like ice cream. I'm experimenting with frozen fruit and blending in my VitaMix. :)

    HI!! Age and height shouldn't matter, although I AM vertically-challenged. :) But loving ice-creams definitely does :laugh:

    Hi I'm 25 and 5 2 as well. I log in every day and am nearing 130 days.
    I know what you mean - I'd rather have like 5 close friends that actually are friends than a long list of people who I don't connect with.
    Diarys open, have a look and if you want to friend me go ahead :-)

    I'm the same age and almost the same height. However, I am a green robot, so I'm afraid I cannot be considered a 'real' friend*









    *This poster does not meet the qualifications in the thread. While she does enjoy ice cream, she is also known to be a non-supportive, just here for fun type of friend. Request at your own risk.

    hey there. we can give it a try. I like being "real friends" with people lol. I'm 26. 5'1'' and 125lbs. I'm not trying to lose weight but if I do that's fine. I'm just more concerned with fat loss and muscle gain.

    Hi! Definitely older, but could also use some "real friends" on this journey. Hoping to lose 44lbs and any help/encouragement would be appreciated. Add me as a friend if you'd like!

    Oooh, more 'real' ppl for friends! Haha. Had friends before but for some reason there was no communication on their part leading me to believe that there's only a couple of reasons for that:

    A) they are expanding their number of friends
    B) they are too busy enjoying ice-cream to reply

    FRs shall be sent to all (my dessert for the day and you ppl have restore my faith) since I'm REALLY looking for some new friends.

    Hi,

    Thanks everyone for the the prompt replies to both my search for friends and also the echoes of ice cream. Had a rough rough day today but i knew I was right to reach out and find some friends. You guys have no idea how significant you guys are in brightening up today. So... thank you, for being you, reaching out and adding me.

    ETA: btw, I am a little sarcastic and sometimes may step over the line. If I do that, it's up to you to push back. :blushing:

    Well post some pictures, fill out your profile, establish some goals and get INVOLVED. You can't get REAL friends if they don't know anything about you!

    I'm a lot older and taller than you are, but I'm also looking for some new friends. I've been at this for 10 months now and still have my ups and downs. I only have a small number of friends, but I'm actively involved in their journeys as well as they in mine. Definitely looking for more of that.

    Anyone looking for an active friend with an open diary, feel free to add me!

    Feel free to add me too. I'm older (33) and taller (5'7), but I love ice cream :) Lately vanilla with chocolate syrup and peanut butter toast crunch cereal stirred in is my favorite. lol

    I'm planning on keeping my friends list small, and I drop the people who leave. I love open diaries, because it gives me ideas for meals, plus it is interesting to see what everyone else is doing. I'm here daily, working on figuring out what I need to eat to maintain all this weight I lost :)
