Feeling alone

Hi, I'm nearly 30 and have 90lb to shed.
I'm very shy and always found it hard to join groups or clubs as I'd always be the one hiding (or trying to) at the back.
I'd love to make some friends and maybe have a little support with trying to get rid of my excess baggage.

I'd just really like to meet some people and be able to make my journey a little less difficult and maybe a little more fun

:)

    Hi Angela! Congratulations on your choice to make a healthy change! Good thing about the internet is you don't have to hide, so it's a little less intimidating. :) Having support really does help. I just starting using the social networking part of MyFitnessPal and I'm starting to really like it. Let me know if you have any questions or just want to chat.

    Welcome you don't have to be along in your weight loss goal we are all in the same boat and the support that we can offer each other is just the best feel free to add me
  • As the others have said you're not alone, all of us have work to do and the support really does make a difference, I also love having a poke around in other peoples diaries to see what they're eating... sometimes to get lunch ideas :)

    Feel free to add me, and good luck :)

    Hey there! Do not think that you are the only one who feels this way. I do all of my exercise at home because I do not want people to watch me. I started with yoga so I could start my journey slow and easy, I walk lots! You can do this! We have your back!

    Welcome! I think you will like the tools and community you will find here on myfitnesspal (MFP). Sending you a friend request.

    This is my second time around here and I cannot tell you the difference having MFP friends has made in my experience and in my results. I have managed to create a network of wonderfully supportive people who offer encouragement, advice, and truth telling. As you read your news feed and forums and see comments from people who seem to have similar goals and values, send them a friend request. Accept every request you receive. I went super stealth underground my first time around and I believe it was to my detriment. This time my motto is , "The more the merrier!"

    Welcome, welcome, welcome. Best of luck to you.
