New Friends

This is going to sound absolutely cheesy... but I am desperate!!!! I'm looking for new people to get to know, to support, who want to support me in my journey and to just generally chit chat with. These friends can be online only or in person... I'm cool either way! I need a bigger support network than I have currently and I really want to succeed this time. So if you are looking for the same in a new friend then please feel free to add me and we can go from there! Being surrounded by happy supportive people helps a lot when it comes to life changing!

    Hi and it's not cheesy at all. Positivity breeds positivity which helps us achieve good results. I just got back into it and am determined to keep at it. I got tired of being tired and aim to fix it and it looks like you are the same way. Let's make it happen! :smile:

    You can add me! :)
  • I totally understand why you feel like it sounds cheesy but i think there are LOTS of people feeing and wanting the same thing. So don't worry about that! ;o) Positive motivation is really helpful and something I am always looking for too. Do you have Instagram? I follow a lot people there for the same thing, its a bit different but just another source of people wanting to motivate and be motivated; that is in addition to the things I am seeing here of course. I just came back to MFP a few weeks ago and am recommitting myself to getting it done this time. I don't want to be like i am anymore. Plus I also have a 7 yo AND a 5 yo. :D

    Please add me, it's great to hear feedback, offer encouragement, or a nice kick in the rear when we need it.

    Welcome! I have absolutely no support system outside of MFP, so I'm all about the support here (and I'm pretty cheesy myself). I check in every day and have an open diary. I have friends losing all sorts of weight, but I can always use more friends in the 100+ club like me. Similar struggles and all that. Feel free to shoot me friend request!

    I got back from 6 and a half Months in Afghanistan only to find most of my friends had left me! I guess they thought I was inactive.

    Add away...

    I am always looking for support. It's hard to not overeat when you live in a family of overweight food pushers. Just looking for people to remind me to stay focused on my goal which is first and foremost to be healthy! :heart:

    You can add me :)

  • Hi, im new to this site and im looking for support in helping me loose weight. Im also here to give support! Its very difficult for me to keep on track as I get discouraged easily. If I dont see the number go down on the scale each week, I sorta want to give up. I know its taken years to look the way I do, but id be happy to loose 40lbs....in the end I want to loose more, but ill start there first. So if your up in supporting me, want support...we can help one another!
    Im currently using herbalife shakes, but am considering going back to my adkins shakes. Im looking for any advice to help me get these lbs off! I also have a thyroid issue, which I feel is making this way more difficult!
