Hello all,

I joined MFP yesterday and am loving it so far. I've tried other sites before, but I think this one is by far the best. I keep up with my food/exercise/progress online and via the iPhone application.

I'm looking to lose 40-45 lbs with the help of this site and a little self motivation.

Anyone else looking for motivational buddies?

    I agree that this site seems much more user friendly than any of the others I have tried in the past as well. I am always open to having someone to motivate me!
    I have invited a few of my friends, but am truely hoping to just stay motivated, bause in the past it has seemed my friends have bailed and left me feeling very let down. I know I am worth this, and words of encouragement are always helpful!

    Welcome to MFP! I, too, am looking for buddies ;) I've been logging in since February and am so hooked!
  • Hello! This is definitely a great site. I only joined a little while ago myself, and it's been very helpful already, keeping me on track. Everyone could use that extra support. Good luck!

    Hello and welcome to MFP! Congratulations on your decision to get fit. You sound very determined, and that's great! You'll find everyone on this site to be very positive, encouraging and motivating. Feel free to friend request me if you'd like. :)

    Also, if you're on Facebook, please feel free to check out the group I created over there, called Motivation. Many positive, encouraging people over that way, too! http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=268180696780&ref=ts

    Best wishes on your fitness journey!

    Hello! I have been doing this since yesterday too!

    I've already been feeling like I want to gorge on chocolate all night long but the calorie checker has really helped!
    For motivation I just think of Kate moss's famous saying

    "Nothing tastes as good as being thin!"

    Good Luck to everyone!
