in Introduce Yourself
Hi all!

I've been on MFP before and lost 40 lbs with ease. On that journey, I learned that the constant support of people with the same challenges is vital. I couldn't have done it without them.

Unfortunately, life got in the way and I gained the weight back plus some--dang it! :mad:

I looking to build a support team that will help cheer me on when I need a boost, give me an ear to vent to, and friends to celebrate my victories with. I promise to do the same for you!

Let's do this together. We can do it! :flowerforyou:

    I'm definitely looking for a new lifestyle and not just a diet!

    I want to lose 80lbs! I am 20+lbs down already in 2 1/2 months.

    I agree, its a lifestyle change! eating better (I'm far from perfect so far) and finally being more consistent with workouts!

    Been on MFP for the second time around, consistently for 5 months this time. It is indeed about life style. We have about the same amount to lose. Feel free to add me. I'm on most days and give feedback if you keep an open diary.

    I'm also a new member looking for support - I too lost about 40 pounds and am so frustrated because I gained it all back. I would love to be of mutual support to you. Good luck!

    I'm looking to lose 50 lbs. I don't want to diet, per se, just eat a little better (more fruits and veggies, less ice cream). I am working out though. I spend my day at work sitting and my evenings sitting so I'm making the adjustment to walking more.

    I love this idea of it being a lifestyle not a diet! Because lately when people ask me if I am dieting I simply reply with "No, I am reinventing myself." I feel as if it's true - I am doing a total over haul of myself, and getting healthy eating habits is just the tip of the iceberg on my journey!

    If you need someone support feel free to add me! :)
