in Motivation and Support
Hi All of you Fantastic people

I have been on MFP for a little over a year. I have come a LONG way and i have some great friends on my list but, i have been lacking some motivation to get me to the next level of my fitness ( year 2). What i am looking for is inspiring , supportive , helpful friends who love to lift weights and eat well. I love the gym and am there 6 days a week, i enjoy lifting weights but, feel i am stalling out.. I love variety and watching people at the gym and learning new things. I had to give up my trainer for financial reasons a couple months ago.

So, i am looking for like minded people who can inspire me with the work they put in and the food they eat. I really need to get out of this mindset of " this is good enough". I want more!!

Thanks for your help!

    I just replied to someone on "Getting Started" saying the same thing! I am just a few months from completing my first year of my fitness journey. That alone is keeping me going because I think about all the other times I'd start only to stop a few months later. I, too, feel I am starting to stagger and really need that motivation that I just can't seem to find anywhere else. Sending an add! (=

    Feel free to add me as well! I've been on MFP for 2 years this month and lost a ton of weight, only to gain it back (because of no one but myself). I'm back and need support as well! We can keep each other accountable!

    Have to force myself not to go the 7th day.

    I'm on EVERY day! I'm also on my home stretch. I've lost almost 100 pounds. Need motivation to lose my last 40!! I have a deadline of February 15th! So I am in DIRE need of motivational friends! I log in EVERY day and I exercise every day as well. I'm always commenting on everybody's posts and trying to encourage them to stick with it. It would be great to have more friends!!! :happy:
