Welcome!!
I am a mom of two boys so I do know how it gets. I lost 20 lbs before discovering MFP and lost an additional 16 lbs since I started. I love this cite, it helps me stay on track a lot better than I did on my own 0 -
Hi and welcome! I would love to be friends with you and with anyone since I'm looking for friends as well. I've been off and on and finally feel like I've had a really good routine for about a month now and I can add on MFP. Before, I would start with MFP and get side tracked with being on it all the time and the work I was actually doing would get neglected. I switched it up - got my routine down and figured out exactly what I was doing, and got into the habit of it, and NOW I am back on MFP!
Let's be friends! 0 -
Hi, Natasha. I am also new, and needing friends. I did weight watchers for close to 2 years. Lost 70 lbs, gained 20 back with two deaths in the family. Now, I am looking for something new, trying MFP and calorie counting. Working out regularly and doing 5k races. Would love to count you among my friends.0

Hi, I am Sherry, and of course, looking for friends. I did well with WW, but now I need something new. I work out regularly, and run 5k races. I am very excited to be running the Biggest Loser 5k in Panama City at the end of December. I am really trying to stick to my guns and lose a little more before the race. Anybody out there want to be my friend?0

23 yr old mom. lost 2 lbs in the 5 days i started. would like some mfp sisters to motivate each other. l have 100 lbs to lose so anyone in the same boat feel free to add me. . would be nice to have friends that will encourage each other when it gets rough. i promise to be here to listen when you need help, give advice on whats working for me and hopefully we lose 100 lbs together, or more or less depending on your needs. thanks for reading and i welcome your requests.
happy fitness to all.0 -
Thanks for all your support. I haven't been on MFP in awhile and realize how much it works when I do use it. My problem is that I have been gaining 2 then losing 1 and gaining 3 then losing 2 etc. I enjoy drinking wine in the evenings, I think this is where my problem lies. Anyone else agree or relate?0

Welcome to MFP! I've noticed that this site has a lot of great, motivational, strong, and intelligent people. We are here for each other, so the more friends, the merrier! I log every day, even my guilty days (like yesterday with all those sweets from a holiday christmas party at work...whoops), and try to exercise 5-6x a week doing Pop Pilates videos on Youtube. It seriously kicks your butt. I'm hoping that next month I can start running outside for longer distances (even though there will probably be snow and ice and it'll be cold and...yeah) to train for a potential 5k in the early spring.
I'm also not weighing myself (mostly because I don't have a scale yet) so I'm taking my body measurements at the end of every month to see how much progress I've made.
Anyone can friend me!0 -
Hey, 18 lbs in a month is fantastic!! Keep it up!!0

Hi! I don't have any kids, but some days it feels like 34,000! (That's the student population of my district.) I know how hard it is to be healthy when you've got other responsibilities to take care of.0
