    Hi! I will interact with you! LOL: I just joined myfitnesspal like less than a week ago...came off basically a starvation diet, the hubbers is like dude if you don't just go and eat some chocolate I'm gonna kill you in your sleep! LOL In other words, he'd rather have my chunky and be able to stand having me around (guess I get a little testy when I have no chocolate! This is for bluebubble: dude try dipping bacon in your nutella holy crap! YUM!). I set a pretty reasonable goal, started at 187 or 187.5, only aimed for 170 because I'm so dang tired of diet disappointment! So I am already halfway there! in 5 days! So maybe I WILL set a lower goal - I decided I could live with being 170...now I just may shoot for 150 which is what I weighed when I got married 17 years ago!

    My inspiration is my niece, who joined myfitnesspal in june of 2012, and lost 90 lbs so far!

    SO I have someone I know well personally who this has worked for so yup I'm on board! (Oh yeah my other inspiration was um I just turned 50 and well figured since it's all downhill from here if I weighed less I might not roll quite so fast! HAHA

    So welcome and we will all do better if we support each other and maybe a lil friendly competition!

    One last thing: Make sure you go to settings and allow the rest of us at myfitnesspal to see your food diary: 1) makes ya more accountable if you know you are being watched moohaha and 2) if we get to a boring stretch we can look at our friends' food choices n go hey THAT looks yummy and try it ourselves! Good luck - let us know what we can do to help!

    Feel free to add me as well. I've stopped and started this journey so many times it's not funny. I'll get the motivation and stay with it for about a week or so and then I'm right back to eating junk and being lazy! I'll motivate you, if you motivate me!

    Everyone add me! Most of my friends are too quiet for me as well! I have lost 55 lbs but still have about 60 to go. I am definitely looking for encouragement and motivation :)

    Although I have fun and am a bit inappropriate at time, (as are some of my friends), I do try to offer support...
