    I'm new to mfp and finding the support so helpful to stay on track. I have 50lbs to lose to reach my goal weight, I've tried many diets and always give up. I'm a big emotional eater and fed up with it all, now on healthy eating please add me and we can keep each other on track

    Welcome back to MFP!!! We all have a lot of weight to lose; we keep each other going. Don't just look for weight loss, but also look at your clothes fitting better. For my part, I have greater mobility than before; I can also fit in the small stalls of the ladies bathroom (smile)!!!

    Hello fellow mfp friends. I am very new to this app and am loving it so far. I have about 60 pounds to lose and would love to have some support. I'm not sure how to add people but if someone will explain it to me, I'd gladly give support in return. I have logged in for 5 consecutive days and with the new work out regimen I have been on, I have lost 3.5 pounds in 5 days. I would love to have someone to chat with as a way of keeping us both motivated. Feel free to add me :)

I'm just starting out..been at it 3 weeks. I need to lose 50+ pounds. I've lost 5 so far but this has been a bad week, and I feel like I've gained some of it back!! Tomorrow is supposed to be weigh in day for me. Could use the support and motivation of friends to stay on track, and I will be there for all of you.

    New to this, started actively trying to lose weight last week. Found out about MFP today. 26 male, 215 looking to drop to 175ish. I think this could be a great tool in order to keep me motivated. Would love to find some other people of the same mindset. Please feel free to add me :)

    Hi! I would be glad to be your MFP. I am very big into motivation and believe we need one another. I want to be honest though, I am much older and don't have much weight to lose, but weight loss is slow for me.

    Hi. I'm on the down slide to 40 :( I am 5'4" and weigh 210lbs on a GOOD day and 212lbs on a BAD day. I wish my scale would decide on the lower weight. I would be THRILLED to go under 200, that is my 1st goal. I'm gonna set them little! Today is day 7 on here and 0 lbs lost!

    This is great to see so many people who're willing to help keep one another on track.
    I would love to be part of the group.
    This is really the first time I have gotten serious about losing weight and it I am completely successful.
    I would end up losing 100 lbs.

    I am right there with you, my goal is to lose a bit more than 50 lbs. I had started a month before I found mfp but am hoping that it will help to keep me on track. Good luck on your journey!

    Hi Mdtoll,

    You (and anyone else interested) should join the lose 10 lbs a month group. It's for everyone, whether you want to really lose 10 lbs a month or not. It's very supportive with a lot of active members. We weigh in every Sunday. It's a great group of people. Come check it out! Friend me (make sure to send a message when you send your friend request) and I'll invite you to the group.

    Hi, everyone! I'm 36 and I have, as of today, 100 pounds to lose. I have a few friends who used MFP in the past, one who uses MFP actively (and has lost an incredible 70 pounds!) but I'd love to have more friends to support and lend me support. Feel free to add me!
