Hi, so i just joined MFP again..i was on here 6 months ago && that didnt go to well. I am now on the road to trying again. I am on a calorie diet, i also just joined a gym around my area and plan to work out as much as i can. Working around food is horrible. I quit my job about 2 years ago and lost 30lbs because i wasn't around the fast food anymore. I just recently got hired at yet another fast food place and yes i gained it almost all back. I am looking for someone else who also gets on MFP everyday and is willing to help motivate me. I know i can only do it for myself but i do need the extra push && someone to believe that i can do it... I want to loose weight so me and my partner can try having a child of our own...

If anyone is interested please let me know

Thanks Jeanette.

    Hi Jeanette!!

    That sounds like an awesome reason to get in to shape and lost weight, babies are adorable (though I don't have any yet just a lot of animals)

    Sounds like you have some awesome motivation already :)

    Go you!

    Babies are a great reason to get fit!!

    I am gonna(not trying) get back in shape because I have a 5yo DGD and I love doing things with her. Just joined Zumba with her Mom , my DIL.

    Hello Jeanette... I am interested and you can do this!! :)

    I'm 44 yrs old and started focusing more on my health in May. I started with a goal to lose 68 lbs and have 38 lbs to go! :) Although I have a number/weight goal, I avoid the scale... stepping on it only once a month! This has all been about eating healthier, being active and feeling better. ;) I have been logging my foods faithfully and measuring most of my success with my improved endurance... and the weight has been coming off as I go. This website and my 'Fitness Bucket List' have been great motivation for me. :)

    I'm sending you a friend request.. and looking forward to celebrating some of our future successes together! :)

    That's a beautiful reason why you should want to lose weight. I've worked in Walmart for a while and saw so many customers always purchasing many unhealthy foods that I wanted to eat as well. It was tough at first, but I overcame that problem by making my goals clear and wanting them more than anything in the world. And you're right-- you need to want to do it for yourself. Once you realize that health and fitness is starting to fill your your thoughts in every waking moment, then you know you're ready for this journey. I won't push you to get back on track, I won't keep track of your every step, but I will walk with you on this journey til the end :)
