Hi all!

Jenny here. 30 yrs old, Michigander, small town librarian, single, need to lose about 60 pounds, 4'11", hate to exercise, and starting my weight loss journey AGAIN! Looking for folks to support me, kick my butt into gear when needed, and share tips with. I do RIPPED classes twice a week, own a ton of workout DVDs I never do, and I strongly dislike cooking. Not a good recipe for weight loss! Please add me if you're looking for more MFP friends. :)

    I'm also looking for a new support network on MFP. I broke-up with weight watchers on Monday, I was in a rut, I'm nervous about setting out on my own but I needed a change. It's great to have someone celebrate at the scale with you but the night before weigh-in I had so much anxiety. Self-sabotage was getting in my way.

    Hi Jenny, I just sent you a friend request. To everyone else, please add me too if you like! I would love to add more friends to my list, especially people who are actively and can actively push and advise me. My first child has just turned one a few months ago, and I am trying to lose the weight I gained during the pregnancy. I have lost over 8 pounds since I started using MFP a few months ago.

    Hey! I am on everyday, log everything, and my journal is open to friends. I am down 24 of my 40 lb weight loss goal, so things seem to be working! Oh, and I love to cook, so if you ever want some direction with that, feel free to ask!

    I'm just starting on this site today. I've got about 60 pounds to lose myself. I have been able to lose weight in the past successfully, but since having my gall bladder out in December 2011, I have put on 50 pounds and have not been able to get it off. I have had tests run for thyroid issues, diabetes, premenopause (my mom and sister both went through menopause at my age - 39), and no one can figure anything out. I have tried Weight Watchers again, which is what has worked for me in the past, and it simply won't work anymore. Diet and exercise don't seem to work anymore either. I've recently seen many of my friends and family members losing with Plexus Slim, but after two and a half months, I've seen no difference at all -- quite depressing, to say the least. My doctor prescribed Phentermine at one time, and while it helped me maintain my weight, it didn't help with weight loss -- even though I was eating healthy and exercising. I've now been prescribed Topamax and have heard many horror stories, and I'm at my wits' end! I'm here to give support and ask for it when I need it. Looking forward to this great community of folks!

    Welcome Fellow Michigander! I'm near Grand Rapids, and I'm Almost 4' 11"

    It has taken me until the last few years to slowly enjoy exercise and now, finally be in a routine and like it. I'd love to help. We can get your motivated to try something you have already! :) Or you've never found the right 'fit'.

    I also dislike cooking and have limited knowledge on foods... frustrating when people put up recipes and you don't have a clue half of what they are talking about. LOL and haven't taken the time to learn it.

    Feel free to add me also, I am looking for motivation also and needing to lose 30 pounds. I need more motivation to get to the gym and workout, but lacking on the motivation side. I need help with someone kicking my butt into gear also.

    Hello, I'm Amy, I'm 45 and I need to lose 77 pounds to get to my goal weight. My initial goal is just to get below 200 I have 32 pounds to go. I'm involved in a fitness challenge group that is helping motivate me. I'm going to the gym trying to be more active. I use a fitbit. It is hard because I have a desk job. I'll take all the support I can get and I will give as well as I get.
    Thanks
    Amy
