in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone,

My name's Jenny, and about three years ago I lost 50 pounds (out of 100 total needed to lose) and then got stuck. The weight started slooooowly creeping back on, and I've put on about 15 pounds back of the 50 down. I'm back on track now and looking for new friends to keep me motivated and on track. Please feel free to add me and I'll add back - looking forward to getting to know you all and help each other out!

    Feel free to add me! I started last year but haven't really been logging this year and a few pounds have crept back on so I'm back on it now as I still have 47lbs to lose. Good luck and I hope MFP gives you the support you deserve. At least you haven't gained all 50lbs back on, you have lost it before and you can lose it again!! xx

    Write something that is motivating you to lose the weight on a sticky note and put on your mirror at home in the bathroom and it will remind you everyday of WHY your doing the weight lose! It WILL help!

    Hey just sent you an invite! We are in the same boat...I lost about 35 of the 60 lbs I need to lose, then gained 10 lbs back when we moved out of state and I got off track. Now I am back on track and ready to lose another 40 lbs, but definitely need some motivation!

    I just joined my fitness pal. I had success with weight watchers and lost 65 pounds but I have slowly gained about 30 back. I really need the accountability. I basically paid WW $42 a month so that someone else would know how much I weigh each week. And all I've done is gain 10 pounds over the last nine months I was with them. I like the idea of (free) friends on here much better!
