in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone. I only recently discovered how awesome and helpful it is to make friends on here and I'm looking for some more social (as in on MFP), active, and supportive friends who have big weight loss goals and can relate. I've already lost weight and have about 90 to go.

I'm on MFP every day and I always try to share helpful articles / recipes as well as comment with words of encouragement on my friends updates and I'm looking for people in a similar situation who can do the same so we can help each other reach our goals! I know we can do it!

I don't mind if all we have in common is the weight loss but...For exercise I like to do Zumba, Kickboxing, and anything fast-paced that will keep me from getting bored. I love Disney and music in general. One of my goals once I lose the weight is to learn to surf because I love the beach!

Please feel free to add me just let me know in the request that you saw this. Thanks!

    I've lost about 39 so far and still have 100+ to go. It is going to be a long journey! I can definitely relate to you, it is rough and overwhelming with so much to lose!

    Hey all,
    It's my 3rd time.

    Round 1
    Did it all wrong and couldn't sustain it :(

    Round 2
    Lost 45lbs in 6 months but new job requiring me to travel alot threw me off balance and i packed the lbs faster than you can blink! *grr*

    Round 3 (third time is a charmer, right)
    Have a proper workout schedule in place and have put it in action since 7 July 2013. I'm watching what I eat too. All I need is a group of friends who are also looking to loose 100+ lbs. Please add me y'all. I'll cheer for ya.

    Hi add me. I've been in this diet community for a year now and I'm beginning to struggle. A lot of my original friends have either got to target or have given up. Most only had a few kilos to lose. So I'm in need of people to help me along h way. I love cooking and my favourite exercise is swimming. We live on a remote island in he North Sea - Shetland - I'm in desperate need of more like minded buddies. I don't know ho much I need to lose as its been so long since I've been a normal weight I guess I've still got more than 100lbs to go.

    I don't have 100 pounds to lose but that's my goal. I've lost 60 pounds so far and I have 40lbs (or maybe less) to go.

    Hi there! I want to lose about 30 more lbs. It's been a long road, but it's been worth it. A quote I saw recently that I love: "Don't give up on a goal because of the amount of time it will take to complete it. the time will pass anyway." :)

    I am new here.... never had a smart phone before (LOL I am behind the times) I am 52 years old, love all things Disney and weighed 250 last Tuesday when I started this app and diet... I weighed in today at 239.2 ... this app makes it so much easier... my goal right now is 165 but when I get there I may try to get to 150...

    I'm down 124 and have some to go. Not sure how much. 75, maybe? I want a specific body fat percentage, more than I want a certain weight, so I don't really know my goal number. I think I have 150 in MFP just because it demands "something", yano? Anyway, anyone can add me if you want.

    Yes, please anyone in this same boat feel free to add me! I, too, need to lose 100+ lbs and it's difficult when the journey seems so long but motivation from a few people that are on the same track should help.

    I am looking to lose about that. This is the first time I have seen the community and such. I usually just used the app to track calories but really trying to get into it again.

    Hello all... When I started this journey I weighed in at 273 and today I weigh 192. I have lost 81 pounds and want to get dow nto about 165. It has been an incredible journey and I still have some more pounds to go. Anyone can add me as a friend, I am on here everyday and I love to share inspiration, recipies, and just chatter. I know how hord it is. It seems so far away when you are starting, but you can do it. Just keep your head up and stick with it. Treat each day as a new day. Do not dwell on what you ate yesterday or what yu are going to do for excersise tomorrow. Focus on the day.
