Hey all. I've recently come back to MFP and would love to build up my friends list with some like-minded people who actually want to help one another out with motivation, tips, or whatever. Shoot me a friend request if you'd like!

I started using MFP about two years ago, and have lost 55lbs and am now working on that last little bit to be at my goal body fat %. Eating is my weakest link. I know what to eat, but having kids, it is hard to say no to pizza night or brownies when the girls make them!

    Wow great job on the 55 lbs! Even without kids it's hard to say no to a pizza night. I'm on board. No pizza for me. Also looking for friends, motivation, nutrition info, work out suggestions, and recipes. Sending friend request.
  • Wow 55lb off as if you need motivation. I could do with some of yours though

    Feel free to add me too, I've got about 20 lbs to lose and already lost 50 lbs when I was 18 years old and I'm 34 now. I've just gained back few pounds and need to lose them!

    Military guy myself. 20years. Trying to stay in shape and lose some body fat as well. Also have a son (8 years old) who helps keep me young. Add me if you need another fellow Texan to help out.
  • Hi all. I'm new here too, or new again. I made this once but never used it. Where do you all get your motivation from?? I have it in spurts. I get the urge to workout like once every month or so but then I never do it again after that. Any suggestions?
