in Introduce Yourself
Hey guys. I'm Morgan and I'm 21 years old. Last year I used MFP and lost around 35 pounds. Today, because my relationship with food is so bad, I have managed to gain back all but 5 of those pounds.. I'm here again this time with a different strategy. Working out and eating healthy needs to be my life forever. I can't, I won't go back to what it was before. Anyway I'm posting on here looking for people who are looking for motivators, and are willing to help motivate me. Feel free to add me. I'd love a fresh group of friends.

    You sound a little bit like me. I was here a few months ago, lost around 17 lbs (granted I didn't lose as much as you), and then I have gained a little over half of it back within about 4 months... those months I was away from MFP.

    Feel free to add if you'd like. I'm always looking for new friends!

    Hey!! I just added you. I am also here to lose again! A few years ago I lost about 20 lbs. (3 pants sizes) I felt so good, but slowly gained it all back plus a bit more. I'm here to lose it again and keep it off this time! I'm also looking for new motivating friends. :)

    I am in the same boat too! I've used MFP before, but then I got hurt and really just stopped. Now I am back, and this time for good. Will add you so we can try to stay motivated!
    Good luck!

    Thank you everybody! It feels good to know that I am not alone. I know that MFP works because when I stopped MFP I gained most of my weight back. I'm ready to do it again though. If you're tired of starting over, stop giving up.
