In need of supportive friends

I have been off track for a few months now and not focused on eating right and exercising. I am trying to get back on track and I plan on doing a calorie deficit diet and to start walking and hiking. I am a married 29 year old guy who needs to loose over 100 pounds. My wife is very supportive and also on her own weight loss journey. I am looking for friends who are like minded or people who have had success and are supportive. I will be supportive back if you are on your own journey. Thanks!

  • Hi Michael! I've been doing MFP since January but the past couple of months I've been just....losing track. So I will support you if you support me! I'm 28 and recently married, and my husband is on MFP too!

    Hi Michael,

    I'm in NC also and active mostly during the day, nights and weekends I will keep up with logging. Feel free to add. I've dropped about 60 lbs since beginning to use MFP back in January

    It's hard to stay on track but you can do it. Try thinking of something that will give you a reason to keep doing the right thing. I think of my husband and my kids and think they are much more important than this (name item you want to eat or over eat) and I want to lose weight so I stay healthy and am with them a long time. I picture their smiling faces or picture something over the years that we all did together that was fun and I refocus my attention on those memories, smile and remember I want be healthy to be here a long time to make more wonderful memories.

    Always willing to help motivate others. I've logged on MFP for 340 days straight so i'm always here trying to lead by example.
