I have used this site before and had great results but obviously didn't stick with it. Now I'm back and I need some supportive friends. I am great at supporting. I keep my friends list short and comment on everyone's progress I mean let's face it, it doesn't take much time to type Good Job. I lost 3.2 kg in my first week on here and I have one comment.......... So so sad and not great for motivation! There is no point in me using mfp if I don't have a bunch of friends who I support and support me back it's what you guys log and comment which gets me motivated!

    Just looked at your diary, I don't think you eat enough! If you want to eat more and cook real food look at my diary and ask to friend me. Good luck

    I work nightshift and some days I might only be awake for 6 hours before I'm back in bed, some days I am awake for 27 hours. I don't eat perfectly but I'm trying to deal with cravings and lack of time right now.

    Hey I am too great when comes to motivate people so if you want add me and anyone else who wishes to be part of my community.
    I will just get a ride in this post and talk a bit why I am here.
    I was using the application to keep track of my weight loss. A work friend indicate it to me, but as usual when it comes to diet I like to keep it to myself specially because I have tried almost everything and people tend to get bored with my failed attempts. At the moment I am doing a juicing fasting which I started on 2nd sept and was going really well until last wednesday when I had a horrible day and ended up breaking the fasting since then I had sushi on Friday and a english breakfast yesterday. But I am determined to get back on track so yesterday evening i went for a 2 hours brisk walk and back to the fasting again. I decided to read and looking into the community to see if I also get some support from people who like me are strugling pound by pound...

    Me too! I can motivate others but sometimes I can't keep myself in check. I need to lose over 100 pounds but I'm setting small goals. I'll do my best to keep is both motivated lol.

    Hi guys,

    Feel free to add me, if you wish!
    I've been on here for nearly 2 years and not one person has added me. Only my friend that I work with has and that's because I made him haha!

    I sincerely need to get my motivation and will power back on track (I've just ate a full Chinese takeaway all to myself!) and as I now cook for just me, I'm finding it difficult to get excited about meal times. So any 1 person recipes you guys have or just wanna chat - feel free to get in contact!

    I WILL start recording my food again, need to if I'm wanting to lose a stone (14lbs)!

    Good luck and happy MFP'ing!!

    I saw that you live in Melbourne. I do too. Just did some cutting off of friends who never interact. I like to motivate and get some motivation back. Add me if you like!
