in Motivation and Support
I am back on MFP after a two year stint in grad school where I managed to gain back about 15 of the 20 or so pounds I managed to lose when I first joined and I have, unfortunately, lost a lot of my support system and friends that I had inititally!

A little about myself - I'm 25 years old, 5'11, 202.8# as of this morning, with a goal weight of 165.0. I was about 185# when I started grad school and the stress eating, late nights, and end of a relationship led me to gaining most of it back. I'm a registered dietitian and I know how to maintain my weight and eat healthy - it's always been a motivation issue and an issue of getting into a routine for me.
I just got my first "real" career and am looking forward to settling into a new routine - and finally being able to afford a decent, not bare-bones gym!

I'd love to get a big group of new friends who want to support one another, especially other tall girls with similar weight goals, but I am open and excited to be a part of the MFP community again. ADD ME, and post for others to meet you! Cheers!

    I'm 5'10...I've lost nearly 80 but looking to lose about 10 more. I'm trying to work on getting my eating habits back under control; I've become a little too relaxed and that's not going to help lose this last bit. Feel free to add me!

    38, 5'10, 137/138Ibs, aiming to get to 133 then maintain around there.
    I have low bodyfat (14%) so losing anymore might not work out. I am very active, doing a combination of running, elliptical, weights circuits, martial arts fitness and cycling.

    I like friends who have similar goals, especially in terms of food intake (I net 1500-1700 calories).
    Feel free to add me if you are a fellow foodie.

    I'm just under 6 foot, and my goal weight is 80kg (175lb)... currently 103kg (227lb) so I have a long way to go! But determined to get healthier, and make the most of my height and figure :) at a later date I might change my goals slightly, and aim to lose a little more, and build it back up in muscle and improve my figure, but for now I need to get back to a healthy weight!

    I'm recovering from quite bad anxiety, and have a history of depression (which is one of the reasons why my motivation had been low enough for me to pile on weight over the past few years...) so my diary is private as I'd probably stress far too much about anyone seeing it :/ but you guys are still more that welcome to add me as a friend!

    (Should probably mention I'm 20 and called Jasmine too, haha)

    Hi there! I'm 5'10", 155 lbs. and 34% BF...but I've lost over 40 lbs. so far. :wink: I'm more focused on getting my BF down to see what that does to my overall appearance. It hasn't been easy! Good luck and feel free to add me.

    Hi! I'm 5'10 and got about 30 left to lose (down almost 14 over the last 5 weeks). After two kids I put on too much weight, and 2013 was a good year for me personally and professionally but not for my tummy :) Feel free to add me, so great to have positive support on MFP

    I'm 5'10", I am 200.5 pounds and almost halfway to my goal weight of 175. I've been logging for a few months but just joined the social aspect of this app... Loving it! I have an open dairy so add me, it'd be great to have a chica with similar goals

    Hi :-)
    I'm 34 years old, 175cm (5'9" ) and have a whole bunch of weight to lose after having babies.
    Goal is 176lb (80kg) and then decide, but likely will go for a few lbs more.
    Currently 213lb, but have lost 16lb since start of January.

    Always happy to have new friends to interact with! Especially the tallies. :smile:
