I need support

Hello!

I'm looking to lose around 40 pounds. I have struggled with my weight for the last 20 years. I really, really want to get myself healthy and fit. I need MFP friends!!

I was on MFP before but I deleted my old account because I wanted a clean slate. I wanted to start over with no record of failure.

Please add me!!! I'm a good team mate :)

    Thanks for reminding me that I have an account here! :) I guess I'm starting over too... happy to be of whatever help I can!
  • Funny you should say that... I had an account and just "re-joined". I need something to help me along this journey of weight loss and maintenance.

    Good job on trying to start over! You can do it if you just keep pushing through, and remember that everybody fails at one point. It just matters that you get back up there. One thing that helps me is to think that we are not striving for perfection, but for PROGRESS! One pound at a time, you will get there!!

    Feel free to add me if you want :)

    I am in the same boat! I joined two years ago and then just ignored/forgot about it. Now I'm really motivated to make a change and have started up again. I 'started' on Nov 30 now and have a goal to lose 30lbs by my birthday! I'd love to give and get support :) please add me if you'd like!

    I have been on here for about 2 years. I log every day still even though in maintenance. I found out if I don't log...weight creeps back on. Add me if you want.
