Selectively Looking for Friends

Hi all - I've been the this site for awhile and have been pretty active in the forums, having friends, logging, etc. However, I recently discovered that I haven't built any connections with anybody on this site, even with a ton of friends. So, I deleted everyone I had to start fresh.

What I'm looking for: I'm looking for a few friends, less than a dozen, who I can check in with, share recipes with, and will motivate me. I just don't find a half-hearted "Way to Go!" to motivate me. Yes, I've been guilty of it too, but in order for me to succeed, I want a little more out of this site.

About me: I'm a 25 year old, young professional working as an Event Coordinator in the power sports industry. I am currently in the process of buying my first home and I'm planning a wedding for September 2014. I'm 5'9, currently 133lbs, and a few years ago, I lost about 50lbs through intense 24/7 exercise and eating the bare minimum. Obviously this is not sustainable, so I gained everything back, plus some. I started my weight loss again in April, and since then I have lost 25lbs mostly by changing my diet. I definitely need the motivation to get back to the gym though.

If you're looking for the same thing, male or female, please add me and tell me about yourself. I genuinely want to get to know you, and motivate you to succeed.

Amanda

    hi Amanda

    I understand the need to start a fresh, i'm more than happy for anyone to add me to offer each other mutual encouragement and support in our journeys. If you want to add me then please do.

    That was my thought too. That is not a nice thing to do.

    When I say good job, or something basic I mean it. Too bad that would not be good enough for others and they would delete me.
