Looking for Friends

I've been here for a while but just recently became more active in the "community" portion of MFP.

My son is 3 years old and I still haven't lost all the baby weight. Within about a year and a half after having my son I lost about 60 lbs. I technically have about 15 lbs to go for my pre-baby weight but I actually want to get back to my ideal weight which is about 35lbs away. So needless to say... I'm still on my fitness journey!

I'm getting to the point where I know I really need an extra push because I've been "sitting here" at this weight for far too long. Typically I do home workouts like Turbo Fire, Insanity, or T25 or use the AMT machine at the gym but in December my husband and I joined a crossfit gym which we are loving.

Looking for friends to motivate and to help motivate me!

    I just started back with my fitness pal i would be more than happy to motivate you.
  • I have been on MFP for a while but have only just recently started using it again but with no friends its quite lonely. I feel exactly the same as you definitely need some motivation!

    Hi, I've been using the the features on this website, but I have never posted before. I'm trying to become more involved in this and hopefully the participation will encourage me to stay on task. I look forward to chatting with you all.

    It does get lonely! And for no reason since there are TONS of people on here. :)
  • Well done already :o)

    I am just getting back into MFP and want to be at my ideal weight by September (thats when i turn 30).

    I can do it easily when i have motivation so hopefully going to meet new friends on here that can help me out and hopefully i can do the same for them so if anyone wants to add me then feel free, i could use the help :o)

    I've just recently become a little more active in the community portion. I've joined a few groups but there hasn't been a ton of activity in the ones I'm in.
  • I know it's silly! Must find as many people as possible to keep us motivated :)
  • people add me! :D

    I also just became active in the community section. The more motivation the better. Great job on your weight loss so far. Sounds like you're in the right direction.

    hello all! that's why we r all here. we have goals we want 2 reach. best wishes 2 every1 along their journey. having support is great. need it more on some days than others. some days we need kicked around when we slack...but n a good way. other days its nice 2 get a pat on the back or a kind word. the finish line is just around the corner...4 all of us. we can't see it yet (maybe some have met their goal)...but it's there. i hope 2 cross that line with every1 else.
