Hey all, I have been on MFP for the last 8 months or so. I am looking to add more friends online to keep my motivation and spirits up! I am a 2nd grade teacher and dreading heading back on Monday. My life is truly sucked up by busyness and my motivation tends to wane, especially exercising. Just looking for some help! Thanks!

    Please add me as a friend! I know how hard its going to be to start back to work on monday as well and stay on track with all of the hard work I've done over break. Maybe we can help keep each other motivated and resist the strong urge to eat everything in sight after school! I am looking for friends as well so if anyone sees anything in common with me, please add me. Thanks!

    Hi. I used MFP for a year every single day and lost over 30 lbs.

    Saw my daughter and was praised, congratulated, and told all my bloodwork came back positive. I told my doc how I did it....and then my doctor said that I didn't need to log everyday - too much work - just eat well and exercise, keep on doing what you're doing.

    So, I stopped logging. Slowly, I regained some of the weight.

    I'm just one of those people who need to track to "stay honest." If I have to re-think eating something because i have to log it, I will. If I'm not tracking, I just eat it. HAHA.

    So, I'm back. New account. New name. New focus.

    Let's get to it! We got this!

    Maybe we should make a teacher group? I've been using MFP, but only on and off for a year, and I gained last year. :/ I'm re-dedicating, but yeah, I'd like to make some friends online to help with accountability. I'm a middle school teacher, but this is my first year at this level and I'm struggggggling.

    Add me if you like! :D

    Hi all, I just started using MFP, and I'm looking for buddies to support and be supported by. I also go back to school on Monday, but I'm a grad student teaching at a major university. I have about 70 lbs to lose, but in the more immediate future I want to lose 30 before my wedding in June. Add me and I'll be happy to help motivate and support you!
