in Introduce Yourself
Hey there! Brand new here to MFP, and dieting in general, but I'm feeling ambitious and I'm confident that I can do this. :)

My interests include hockey, mountain biking, crocheting, walking dogs, painting, stargazing, listening to alternative rock, reading, swimming, driving to no-where, and watching movies/DW/Parks&Rec/Adventure Time/etc! I'd like to find some pals on here (whether we share interests or not). It'd be nice to have some support!

Have an awesome day!

    Hello, lovely!

    You absolutely can do this! A lot of people like to make it more complicated than what it needs to be ~ find something that works for you & stick to it!

    I also love listening to music, swimming, random roadtrips to nowhere, movies & silly cartoons, & crocheting! I'm a huge video game nerd as well, so a lot of my time is spent playing League of Legends, Guild Wars 2, and the ESO Beta.

    I love supporting my friends through this journey, as it can be pretty tough when you're in this alone. I'd love to be one of yours! :flowerforyou:

    You sound fun! Add me! I actually started my first *real* competitive challenge TODAY - you can join us in the group "Skinny Summer *****es" - we're doing a points thing and it's going to be really fun (and helpful).

    Or if you don't want to do that, just add me and we can be best friends! :-P

    (PS - my kids were amazed when they were talking about an Adventure Time episode and I contributed to the conversation - I'm sooo glad to find another adult who enjoys not-so-adult shows lol)

    I'm always happy to be friends with another Whovian! And driving to nowhere is just about my favorite pastime. I started my journey a week ago today, so I'm pretty new to this too, and I'm happy to help you on your way to your goals. :happy:

    I'm also looking for some friends and support!

    I go by Nellie, I'm 27 years old and I live in Minneapolis with my husband. My interests include art of all kinds (I have a BFA), discovering new music, animals, horror movies, the paranormal, the beach and sunshine, among many other things. I really enjoy living in Minneapolis (aside from the cold) because of our awesome music, theater, and art cultures. I currently work with disabled artists, and I absolutely love my job and my clients.

    I have an eating disorder, and I consider myself somewhere in the middle of recovered and not recovered. I'm in a much better place than I was even 2 years ago, but it's a long process.

    My fitness goals are pretty straightforward. I just want to be active on a regular basis, be fit, and eat well. Losing weight will be a plus.

    You CAN do this! I like to get and give support from my MFP friends and honestly I can say that it is so much easier having a network of "friends" giving you support and advice and also calling you out when you need it. I'm just knocked out the first 30% of my initial weight loss because MFP makes it so easy to record everything and the people that you meet are nothing short of fantastic. Enjoy your journey!

    I would love to have friends on here as well! After all, the main reason I joined this site is to get motivation to meet my goals from other people. I am a pretty avid gamer, and I am a fellow Whovian!
