Looking for friends :)

Hello everyone,

I used to have a MFP account under my real name and had real friends and family on it and it became too much. The depression when I would go over my calories and the shame that my friends could actually see got to me. So here I am, ANONYMOUS lol

I REALLY want to do this!! I need motivation and encouragement and I will keep my diary public (I had it private in the past) so that all my new "friends" can tell me to do better on the inevitable not so healthy days.

Please friend me, if you're still overweight and have 100lbs to go or if you are close to your goal and have only 3lbs to go, FRIEND ME! I only get on the computer once in a while so reading the message board is sometimes not convenient.

I want to get one good week under my belt and hopefully join a challenge. I am so motivated and need you guys to help me on my journey.

Looking forward to a new me and a new us!

- The Toast of Mayfair :)

    Hello! I understand that! It would be hard to be so public and that is why I've never liked Weight Watchers. Anyways, i would love to be your friend. We all need encouragement to stay healthy with all these crazy temptations around!

    Well "The Toast of Mayfair",

    Good to have you, anonymous or not, nice name choice, I am using my real, but maybe that is because I don't know any better... Anyway, good luck with your revised name....add me.

    Anonymous is just a better idea. You can end up sharing a lot of personal details here, and you have to be careful.

    I don't friend people here for that reason, but I'll add my encouragement.

    Nice to meet you:) I'm sort of here anonymously as well! Aside from my brother and a couple of close friends, no one else knows. Just find it easier, especially when you have relatives/friends who are "helpful" by making negative comments. So 11 weeks later, I'm here and a lot happier and losing weight! Anyone can feel free to add me, as support during the journey is so great and amazing, not to mention motivating.:)
